ESPN's Get Up morning show feels like a mashup of all of ESPN's successful shows

The Ringer

ESPN's expensive new morning show premiered Monday looking like it's still hasn't found its footing. As Bryan Curtis notes, "It strives to be a show built from pieces of other successful ESPN shows: SportsNation; Around the Horn; NBA Countdown; and even that old warhorse SportsCenter. In an interesting decision, the Get Up crew did SportsCenter’s Top 10 plays—the very same ones that were showing on ESPN2—each hour. The message seemed to be: This is all the stuff you like about ESPN, only we’re doing it much earlier."
