ESPN's Get Up! revamp makes it look and feel like SportsCenter
-
"So far, Get Up! 2.0 has not featured nearly the amount of conversation between the hosts that the show once did," Bobby Burack says of ESPN's expensive morning show that premiered earlier this year and was rebooted this week. "It instead includes much more highlights, interviews, statistics, with the opinions coming from the guests. That combination is essentially the format SportsCenter looks like now. Several times this week, they have even incorporated the classic 'SportsCenter Top 10 Plays' segment."
