Fubo on Thursday unveiled the first-ever fall programming slate for Ryan Reynolds' Maximum Effort Channel, led by The Syd + TP Show, starring the WNBA's Sydney Colson and Theresa Plaisance.
The Syd + TP Show – which is co-produced by Maximum Effort, Fubo and Togethxr – is set to premiere on Fubo's Maximum Effort channel on September 18 at 9 p.m. ET.
“Our show is the first of its kind - bringing the WNBA to your homes in a way that's never been brought before,” said Colson and Plaisance in a statement. “If you have a heartbeat, this is absolutely for you. It's WNBA players like you've never seen before – raw, wild and absolutely outrageous. So many of us are natural born entertainers and multifaceted women so we're excited for people to be able to witness that.”
“The channel is growing and our fall slate is an example of our long term goal to deliver clever comfort to everyone who needs it,” said Kevin Hill, head of television development at Maximum Effort, also in a statement. “
The Syd + TP Show fits in well with Fubo's other athlete-driven content, such as No Chill with Gilbert Arenas and Getcha Popcorn Ready with T.O. and Hatch.
