AM (formerly known as The AM Show) was a New Zealand morning news and talk show that airs from 6 am to 9 am on Three. The programme is presented by Lloyd Burr, Melissa Chan-Green, Nicky Styris, Michael O'Keefe, and William Waiirua. Former presenters included Ryan Bridge, Bernadine Oliver-Kerby, Amanda Gillies, Mark Richardson and Aziz Al-Sa'afin. It was presented by Duncan Garner from 2017 until his resignation in August 2021. News and sport bulletins are provided by Newshub.
The show replaced Paul Henry after it was announced the frontman of the show, Paul Henry, was resigning and therefore the show was going to be replaced. The announcement was made by MediaWorks in November 2016, and Paul Henry last aired on 16 December 2016. The show's reporters are Sinelle Fernandez in Auckland, and Ashleigh McCaull in Wellington.
Before 2022, The AM Show was a hybrid radio and television programme which aired simultaneously on Three and Radio Live (rebranded as Magic Talk in 2019). The show was reformatted and ceased broadcasting on radio, following MediaWorks' decision to end its content supply agreement with Newshub in 2021.
