Sports Monster

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sports Monster was a program on Comedy Central that aired in 1990 and 1991^[1]. The show was a spoof of sports shows such as ESPN's Sportscenter, and George Michael's Sports machine, and starred Nick Bakay, Joe Bolster, and Jon Hayman as the program's announcers. Although Bakay, Bolster and Hayman used their own names in the show, each adopted a fictional persona--Bakay as a long-time sports broadcaster, Bolster as a former Major League Baseball star, and Hayman as a journeyman baseball player.

This show was one of the first attempts at original programming on Comedy Central, at the time in its first broadcasting season.
