Banyan Productions, a leading creator of reality-based
television programming, has reached a partnership agreement with NFL
veteran wide receiver Terrell Owens (aka, T.O.) for a new reality
television series that will be hosted by the colorful athletic
personality. Internet and mobile content based on the show's concept
will also be created. The announcement was made today by Ray Murray,
President of Banyan Productions.
"Terrell Owens is one of the most talked about and dominating athletes in all of sports. He's also honest, articulate and one of the most physically fit competitors in the country. We're looking forward to tapping into all of those qualities to create an original and groundbreaking series," said Mr. Murray.
The show will combine T.O.'s passion for working out with his natural curiosity about other people. Guests on the show will come from the worlds of sports, entertainment and even politics -- and no subject will be off limits. The show will rely on T.O's witty personality and tendency to speak his mind and Banyan's successful track record in producing highly rated programming that strikes an emotional chord with its audience.
