Overview
NBA Inside Stuff and served as a sort of recap and analytics show that traces the week’s previous games in the NBA, complete with top games and special moments. The hosts would also interview the best NBA players outside of game situations, often discussing issues relevant to them.
The show first aired on October 27, 1990 and concluded on January 15, 2006. After a seven-year hiatus, NBA TV reported Inside Stuff with new conductors and a new look. The revamped show began airing November 2, 2013 on NBA TV.
Broadcast history
NBA Inside Stuff it was usually the bridge show for NBC between TNBC (or, in its first two seasons, its Saturday morning cartoon lineup) and Saturday afternoon programming, usually sports. In the late 1990s, the program received some adaptations to meet the educational and information requirements of the FCC. In 2002, ABC took over the show from NBC after the latter network’s contract with the NBA as the owner of the network’s exclusive rights had expired.
When he switched to ABC in the fall of 2002, it aired at the end of the network’s ABC Kids Saturday Morning block, serving as a bridge between that and their afternoon sports programming (occasionally moved to Sundays during football season college).
For its first two years on ABC, the show experienced a drop in viewership. When asked why he thought the show had gone astray, host Ahmad Rashad said, “because ABC blocked us in a time slot that didn’t fit the content, causing the show to suffer in ratings.” . Many of the viewers between the ages of 18 and 34 who were drawn to the NBC show in the 1990s failed to follow it to its new home on ABC. In the autumn of 2004, in an attempt to increase the audience, the show was moved to Sunday afternoon, broadcast as a starting point for the regular sports programming of the network.
NBA Inside Stuff and last aired on January 15, 2006. It was later replaced with the NBA Access a similar theme con Ahmad Rashad (which aired on ABC until 2011). As the name suggests, Rashad was the host. The replicas of NBA Inside Stuff were moved to NBA TV at that time.
As previously mentioned, NBA TV announced that after a seven-year hiatus, NBA Inside Stuff would return with Grant Hill and Kristen Ledlow as host. The spot for the then resurrected NBA Inside Stuff was later aired on NBA TV.
