Cincinnati Bengals To Be On HBO’s “Hard Knocks” For Some Reason

May 14, 2009 Ryan Berenz Reality TV, Sports, TV News & Program Updates Comments Off on Cincinnati Bengals To Be On HBO’s “Hard Knocks” For Some Reason

By Ryan

Good news: HBO is returning another season of Hard Knocks in August. Bad news: It’s going to be about the Cincinnati Bengals. Good news: It can double as a season of COPS.

HBO Sports, NFL Films and the Cincinnati Bengals will team up for an all-access look at what it takes to make it in the National Football League when Hard Knocks: Training Camp With the Cincinnati Bengals debuts Aug. 12 at 10pm ET/PT on HBO (HD). It is the show’s fifth season. Other seasons have followed the Dallas Cowboys (twice), Baltimore Ravens and Kansas City Chiefs.

“This is a fascinating team,” says NFL Films president Steve Sabol. “They’ve got a lot to prove to themselves and to the fans.  As Coach Lewis has said, ‘This is a team with a chip on their shoulder.’ Training camp is a laboratory of human emotions and the Bengals have a compelling mix of personalities that should make for dramatic television.”

June 30, 2018 Lori Acken Drama, Interview, Magazine Archive Comments Off on ‘Sharp Objects’ on HBO: We Talk With Gillian Flynn, Amy Adams, Patricia Clarkson, Eliza Scanlen!

Sharp Objects premieres Sunday, July 8 at 9/8c on HBO Ask anyone who grew up in a small town. Change rarely amounts to a lick of good. Family businesses make local royalty of the generations who run them. Know your place and mind your own business. Except when you don’t, because gossip does so soothe the grinding sameness. And strangers? Well, they’re best welcomed with a healthy dose of suspicion. Particularly if they’re native sons or daughters who turned their back on their roots, then came back unrecognizable. Or if you think they might be a killer. This is the […]
