ABC's got the Stuff
By BroadCasting & Cable Staff -- Broadcasting & Cable, 9/4/2002 4:00:00 AM
ABC is inheriting NBA Inside Stuff, the youth-oriented magazine show of the National Basketball Association, as part of its new rights deal with the league, which starts with the 2002-03 season.
Stuff will debut Sept. 7 at 12:30 p.m. as part of ABC's Saturday-morning kids' lineup.
The weekly half-hour show, which has aired the past 12 seasons on NBC, will continue to be co-hosted by Ahmad Rashad and Summer Sanders (Rashad also serves as executive producer). It is produced by NBA Entertainment.
Several changes are planned, including a new set and new feature segments including "Back in the Day," which highlights players talking about lessons they learned while growing up; "Fit Facts," a weekly fitness tutorial; and "Skillz," a basketball-skills feature with various NBA and Women's NBA players.
The show will also unveil new graphics, new music and a new animation component. And it will be "repurposed" on ESPN and ESPN2 per the new rights agreement.
