Fox Sports 1 - Deliver us from evil - Page 11 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

Gonna take awhile to judge fairly. I'd imagine a ton of casual tv watchers don't even know the channel exists yet. I forget myself.

Will probably never pass or rival ESPN but the numbers may become respectable at some point. They'll hopefully get better over time as well.

Well it's been three months, I don't know what the ratings are at but fox advertising fs1 during football games can't hurt. I'm interested in what people think.

I think jay and dan are goat level. Roddick is good. Mcnabb and the glove are insufferable, especially Peyton. Mcnabb is awful but at least he can form a sentence.

I think the weeknight round table show was destined to suck but at least is better than ATH+PTI in terms of entertainment value since neither block is really out for actual sports analysis.

Every time I think about this channel it's at night and there's something lame on and no SportsCenter type of program.

Mike Francesa will now be simulcast on FS1 and FS2.

M&tMD might have been interesting ten years ago. A national audience trolling the notoriously humorless Francesa will be awesome.

Also, FS1's UFC production and presentation today is top-notch.

Believe it or not today marks the three year anniversary of when Fox Sports 1 came into our lives. Over those three years, Fox Sports 1 morphed into FS1 and the network has been all over the place when it comes to the vision and mission of the network. You can see it in our coverage as well. Year 1 was a bold start, but struggled to meet Fox’s lofty rhetoric and expectations in challenging ESPN out of the gate. Year 2 saw the network mature and continue to develop new stars. Year 3 has brought Colin Cowherd, Jason Whitlock, and Skip Bayless.

lol

someone needs to free Jay & Dan, and Katie Nolan

Jay & Dan free, poor Katie still not though, sadly

Quote:

John Ourand of SportsBusiness Daily writes that FS1 has canceled Fox Sports Live, the highlights show hosted by former TSN broadcasters Jay Onrait and Dan O’Toole which eventually turned into a less formal program with two guys on couches. Its final show was last night. The Canadians’ contracts also won’t be renewed at the end of March. At least one of them [Jay] will be going back to TSN.

This is complete sweep under Horowitz: He's now cancelled all 3 shows he inherited -- Francesca, America's Pre Game & @foxsportslive
— jamesmiller (@JimMiller)

Additionally, Ourand and Awful Announcing write that Katie Nolan’s Garbage Time, which hasn’t aired an episode since Feb. 3, won’t be coming back in its current format. The show will either be reworked, or another role will be found for Nolan.

FS1 now officially The Ocho, aka ESPN's trash

After live events I'm interested in, Katie, Jay and Dan were the only things on FS1 I enjoyed. Katie probably has too much brains for FS1 to put to proper use. Probably makes the execs too nervous when she talks about Goodell. Jay and Dan subbed for Colin one morning months ago and they had me crying with laughter in my car.

RIP FS1 talent.

Jay and Dan were just a decade too late. I love them and their schtick, but I just never watch highlight shows anymore.

Is Katie Nolan about to take over Fox Sports?

It appears Fox Sports 1 is making room for their star-in-waiting to become the face of the network by reworking their lineup and laying off Canadian hosts Jay Onrait and Dan O’Toole.

A source has confirmed a report by Sporting News reporter Michael McCarthy that Fox Sports 1 is developing a number of new TV shows for Nolan, with her exposure expected to increase “five-fold” on the network following a successful test-run during the Super Bowl.

Yeah they pretty much did the exact opposite of what I wanted and instead became an even cheaper, louder, dumber version of ESPN.

Hard to imagine that Fox would get it so wrong.

WELP

Katie Nolan will reportedly get an early release from Fox Sports

Quote:

The long-rumored Katie Nolan-to-ESPN move appears one step closer to reality.

According to Sports Illustrated’s Richard Deitsch, Nolan is negotiating a release from her Fox Spots contract, which is believed to conclude at the end of 2017. Deitsch reports that her official release is imminent.

Nolan, who joined FS1 when it launched in 2013, has appeared on the network only sparingly since her show, Garbage Time, was canceled earlier this year. Since then, rumors have flown about ESPN attempting to lure the host, and in July, Jim Miller reported that Nolan would in fact leave Fox for ESPN, either when her contract ran up or before then. Deitsch’s report suggests she has succeeded in pushing for an early release.

Jay & Dan back to their old tricks on TSN in Canada, Katie about to be all over ESPN, meanwhile FoxSports.com has reportedly lost 88% of its audience after pivoting to video

lololol
