Charlie Brooker's Weekly Wipe will return to BBC Two in early 2014.
The series will follow Brooker's annual hour-long Christmas and New Year roundup Charlie Brooker's 2013 Wipe.
"Whether it's news, or film, TV, or Twitter, if it's making the agenda and it's worth pointing a finger and laughing at Charlie will tackle it," said producers.
"And if there's nothing to tackle, then expect lengthy chunks on the worst adverts or most pointless events."
Doug Stanhope returns to the show, as do the show's own Philomena Cunk and Barry S**tpeas, in addition to brand-new contributors Brian Limond and Jake Yapp.
The show is written and presented by Brooker, with Annabel Jones and Nick Vaughan-Smith as executive producer and Ali Marlow as series producer.
