Beginning this fall, new shows BREAKFAST BALL and THE FACILITY will anchor weekday mornings, with FS1 pillars THE HERD WITH COLIN COWHERD and FIRST THINGS FIRST continuing to fortify the afternoon block alongside a new-look SPEAK in the cleanup spot.
“FS1 is evolving around a dynamic roster of sports talk personalities, and we couldn’t be more excited for what’s ahead,” said Charlie Dixon, Executive Vice President and Head of Content, FS1. “From early morning to late afternoon, viewers can look forward to an array of compelling sports discussions, expert analysis and exclusive interviews, all designed to keep sports enthusiasts informed and entertained throughout the day.”
