SPORTS NIGHT was the brainchild of Aaron Sorkin (A FEW GOOD MEN) and ran on ABC from 1998 until 2000 as a critically acclaimed look behind the scenes at a very SPORTSCENTER-like show from which the series takes its name. Peter Krause and Josh Charles star as Casey McCall and Dan Rydell, the show's anchors, with Rydell being the series's focal point as a young and slightly idealistic sports journalist who has an endearing way of standing up for the dignity of his profession. A behind-the-scenes look at the production of a television show, SPORTS NIGHT is not at all about sports, but about the show's frantic, often quirky characters who often have to wrestle with tough moral and ethical questions about journalism as well as the occasional turkey thawing on the hot lights above the anchor desk.

  • Sports Night DVD Collection
  • SPORTS NIGHT, a three-time Emmy Award-winning series, turned avid audiences on their ears and eyes for two captivating seasons. Electrifying performances from a stellar ensemble cast that included Peter Krause (SIX FEET UNDER), Josh Charles (DEAD POETS SOCIETY), and Felicity Huffman (MAGNOLIA) propelled this innovative "dramedy" to high critical praise. Now with this first-time-ever DVD collection, you can experience all the behind-the-scenes bedlam of a nightly cable sports news show that proves the thrill of victory and agony of defeat aren't always in front of the camera -- and aren't always about sports!
