ESPN Hollywood
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
ESPN Hollywood was a television program that aired on ESPN2 in 2005. The daily 30-minute show was centered on the convergence between the sports and entertainment worlds.
A typical show would include news of athletes appearing in movies, on television, and in commercials, coverage of movie premieres, and interviews with athletes and entertainers.
ESPN Hollywood was hosted by Mario Lopez and Thea Andrews and aired at 6 p.m. Eastern time on ESPN2, opposite SportsCenter on ESPN. There was also a one-minute summary on SportsCenter itself.
The program premiered in February 2005 and ended in August 2005. The network cited the lack of material sufficient for a daily show about the subject. ESPN Hollywood continued as a segment on Cold Pizza, also on ESPN2, until early 2006.
