Netflix kicks off its version of "College GameDay" with a new weekly football series called "On Campus: Game of the Week." The series, produced by Almost Friday Media, will follow two new students each week as they document their day in the life leading up to game day. The first episode is set to premiere on September 4. The series will travel to various college campuses across the country, giving viewers an inside look into the "biggest game of the week."
The series will include everything from school traditions to tailgates. Almost Friday Media, known for their meme account Friday Beers, is seeking applications for college students from LSU, UT Austin, and the University of Mississippi to participate in the series. The Friday episode of the video series will break down the pregame shenanigans, while the second episode will air Sunday after the game to capture the aftermath.
Executive producers for the series include Jack Barrett, Chris Grosso, Alex Edge, and Andrew Kenward. This series is part of Netflix's push into creator-led content, expanding their original IP into film and television.
