After seeing the premiere of three Fox Sports 1 studio shows, I have a few thoughts. These are not full-blown reviews. I need to see more than the premiere to form a true judgment. One show does a series make and it would be unfair to write a review based on one show.
As usual, they will come in bullet form.
- Julie Stewart-Binks is a decent host of Fox Soccer Daily.
- The furniture on the sets of Fox Soccer Daily and Fox Football Daily could be greatly improved by a visit to IKEA.
- Nice touch to have Sports Illustrated’s Grant Wahl contribute to Fox Soccer Daily.
- Good to see English Premier League highlights on Fox Soccer Daily. Had heard EPL highlights would not be seen on the show.
- It seems the most energy for Crowd Goes Wild from the audience came at the beginning and at the end if the show. Not a good sign.
- I don’t think Regis Philbin will be on Crowd Goes Wild past February.
- We need to see more of Katie Nolan.
- I liked Trevor Pryce on CGW.
- I didn’t like Michael Kosta.
- Why did it seem the sanity on CGW came only from Jason Gay?
- I never thought Randy Moss, the former wide receiver not the bald headed white guy, could be a star on TV. He could very well be on Fox NFL Sunday next season.
- Fox Football Daily appeared to showing off its entire set with each new segment.
- Good video footage from Jay Glazer on an incident between Houston Texans defensive lineman Antonio Smith and Miami Dolphins offensive lineman Richie Incognito.
- Fox Football Daily could take a bite from the 6 p.m. SportsCenter audience.
That will end the post for now.
