Program History
ESPNews Pregame replaced 4 Qtrs (also anchored by Lloyd) in the 7pm ET timeslot. On July 21, 2008, this program expanded to two hours as it moved up an hour to the 6pm ET timeslot, replacing the re-airings of Around the Horn and Pardon the Interruption (both of which moved to sister channel ESPN2 in the same timeslot). In addition to the expansion of the current two-hour format, ESPNews Pregame has switched to a dual-anchor format as well, just like most of the network's other programs, such as The Hot List and Gametime. The show had its series finale on January 2, 2009 as ESPNews reverted back to half-hour blocks of sports news throughout the day beginning January 5, 2009.
