My favourite tv show is Soccer Am
Soccer AM is a British Saturday-morning football show presented by Helen Chamberlain and Max Rushden. It has been broadcast on Sky Sports 1 each Saturday morning of the football season since 1995 between 0900 and 1200 and recently broadcast its 500th episode. It is also simulcast on Sky1, since the spring of 2007. It is also shown on Sky's Sky Anytime service in a cut down version of around 50 minutes. This is available to view from the Monday after the show broadcasts until Saturday.
The success of Soccer AM has come from an eclectic mix of football, comedy and entertainment every week, and has seen its influence spread well beyond the world of football. Parts of the show have remained since the beginning, whilst new items have been introduced each season. In that respect, it is almost the same every week, the difference being new football footage and comedy skits. Every week sees a new group of celebrity guests, generally featuring at least one footballer who is free on the Saturday, and a mix of musicians, TV personalities and other sportsmen. The show is well known for promoting stereotypes of various ethnic groups and nationalities, and often includes skits of 'typical' Northern Englishmen, Americans, Scotsmen and White Frenchmen.
