INTERNATIONAL AWARD-WINNING SHERIDAN ROAD PRODUCTONS AND GRAMMY AWARD-WINNER MICHAEL BOLTON TEE UP FOR LIFE ON THE LINKS
Life on the Links (aka "LOL"), an innovative golf lifestyle show, is set to premiere on CBS Sports Network on Monday April 17th
“Golf is the only competitive sport where the competitors can actually carry on a conversation with one another whilst competing,” commented Maryilene Blondell, Co-Founder/CEO of Sheridan Road Productions, show creator and showrunner. “This show takes a wholly different approach from the typical talk show to offer a more engaging and intimate look at the celebrities it features, against the backdrop of some of the most spectacular courses. It’s not about the caliber of the golf. It’s about the caliber of the conversation. Hearing the totality of Michael Bolton’s story was a privilege -- especially learning about his charity work (of 30 years) for victims of domestic violence.”
“Golf has a way of bringing all of us down to earth, famous or not. People share themselves on the course. LOL resonates with CBS Sports and their audience,” says Jim Kreutzer, Co-Founder of Sheridan Road Productions and Producer of the BAFTA Award winning film, Tommy’s Honour.
Life on the Links is considered a dynamic talk show and the first-ever unscripted reality golf lifestyle talk show of its kind. Each episode will feature a different celebrity playing at a different prestigious golf course somewhere in the world. In the season premiere episode, host Hally Leadbetter and guest Michael Bolton tee up and hit a wide range of topics while playing at the exclusive and elusive Canyata Golf Course -- named by Golf Digest in 2005 the No. 2 Best New Private Course in America.
“Golf is an important part of our programming at CBS Sports. We are committed to extending our golf coverage on CBS Sports Network through the Monday Night Golf Block, highlighted by the addition of LOL.” added Bess Barnes, Vice-President of Programming, CBS Sports.
