From the show's inception through 2005, its format was similar to traditional network television morning shows such as "Good Morning America" and "The Today Show", featuring discussion among the hosts on entertainment and sports topics. After poor initial ratings, the format was changed to be similar to that of "SportsCenter" and "Pardon the Interruption", including sports headlines, analysis, and debate. Because of the format change, hosts Hoover and Maxie were let go due to lack of a sports journalism background, and Jacobson, Paige, and Bayless joined. Co-host Andrews was transferred by ESPN to Los Angeles to co-host ESPN2's new evening entertainment news show, "ESPN Hollywood". That show was cancelled in January 2006, and Andrews remained with ESPN until November 2006, when she left the company to work as a correspondent for "Entertainment Tonight".
