MTV Bringing Back Live Daytime Programming
Posted by
Since the cancelation of Total Request Live, MTV has had a giant hole in their daytime TV schedule - and now it's about to be filled!
The network will air The Seven on weekdays from Time Square beginning September 27th. Within its half-hour format, viewers will get info on Hollywood news, music, sex, fashion and other related topics.
MTV programming president Tony DiSanto said:
"It's been a big goal of mine to get us back into the live-series business. I wanted to get into day-and-date topical programming, and there's just something about having a live show during a time of day where everything else is pretaped."
Host for the show are Kevin Manno, a DJ from Chicago who hosts a nightly show for top-rated station Q101, and Julie Alexandria, a pop culture and sports fan who hosts the East Coast-based cable show Mets Weekly.
Music performances and interviews also will be featured during it's 5pm time slot.
Do U miss TRL enough to watch?!
