Two great things happened in the world of television this week. First, “Johnny Bravo” will be on Netflix soon (whoa momma) and second, TigerTV has kicked off its 24th year of programming.
This year, we have spearheaded online convergence with The Daily Reveille to combine our award-winning TV station’s video capabilities with one of the best college newspapers in the country while incorporating KLSU radio and Legacy magazine into the media mix.
Think of it like “The Avengers,” except even more awesome.
By working with The Reveille, we hope to improve our news coverage to better inform you, the students, about what’s happening at the University.
You can catch our news show, “Newsbeat,” at 5 p.m. Tuesday though Thursday. We will also be posting extended interviews with key figures around campus as often as possible, so be sure to check those out.
Also, on The Reveille iPhone app, you can watch our daily mobile updates. Monday and Friday will focus on sports, while Tuesday through Thursday’s updates will recap the day’s news.
We hope to bring you the most in-depth coverage of LSU sports in this area. We will strive not only to inform you about basketball and baseball, but all of the teams on campus.
From 6 to 6:15 p.m. Tuesday though Thursday, on our show “Sports Showtime,” you can find sports coverage that focuses on detailed analysis, quality feature stories and a tolerable amount of debate (we can only embrace so much).
TigerTV is also working with LSU Athletics to produce “Inside LSU Gymnastics with Coach D-D Breaux.”
This will not only air on TigerTV, but also regionally on Cox Sports Television and Comcast Sports South, reaching more than 10 million homes across the country.
Finally, TigerTV prides itself on having quality entertainment shows. Whether you are looking for political satire, celebrity-bashing or just general pop culture discussion, be sure to check out “The Update,” “The Ramen” and “The Hot Spot.”
We are always looking for additional content. Feel free to send your short films, show ideas and whatever else you think students would want to see. We may have a new format, new shows and even new people in charge, but we still have that same commitment to solid journalism, creative entertainment and to the University that we were built on.
Contact us at [email protected] for any show suggestions, questions or comments. You, the viewer, are what’s most important to us.
