In L.A., even the football teams get TV deals.
The Los Angeles Rams will star in a new E! reality series, “Hollywood & Football,” the network announced Wednesday.
The series, which will run for six hour-long episodes, will follow the Rams as the team returns to the City of Angels after playing in St. Louis for the last two decades.
“Hollywood & Football” will “chronicle the move of six Rams players and their families, as they pick up their Midwestern roots and adjust to life in Los Angeles,” the network said.
The six players the show will feature are wide receiver Kenny Britt, offensive lineman Rodger Saffold, tight end Lance Kendricks, running back Chase Reynolds, wide receiver Bradley Marquez and tight end Cory Harkey.
The series is set to kick off this fall.
“We are excited to take viewers inside the exclusive lifestyles of these top athletes and their families as they navigate a new city, new friendships, new schools and the inevitable Hollywood gossip,” Jeff Olde, E!’s executive vice president of programming & development, said in a statement.
“Hollywood & Football” will join a roster of reality TV programming on E! that includes other shows based in in southern California but on very different topics, like “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” and “Rich Kids of Beverly Hills.”
The Rams will be doing double duty in the reality TV world. They will also be featured in NFL Films’ and HBO’s popular “Hard Knocks” series, which follows teams during training camp and preseason.
