Behind The Scenes

Join TVLand’s Donald Faison on his behind-the-scenes tour of ESPN

In November, actor Donald Faison visited Bristol for an ESPN Car Wash to help promote his new TV Land sitcom The Exes.

Faison not only made numerous visits with outlets such as First Take and ESPN Radio, he brought his own camera crew to document the tour.

You’ll see the results above, including an excerpt from his taping an episode of Both Sides Of The Ball with SportsCenter anchors Mike Hill and Jay Harris.

Faison starred for nine seasons on the acclaimed sitcom Scrubs and in numerous movies including Clueless.

Among the familiar faces appearing in the Faison video include college basketball analyst Digger Phelps, First Take regulars Stephen A. Smith, Jay Crawford and Skip Bayless, ESPN.com’s Page 2 editor Lynn Hoppes and fantasy experts Nate Ravitz and Matthew Berry.

At the beginning, TV Land cameras caught a small world moment: Former NFL wide receiver and current Kendra reality series star Hank Baskett bumps into Faison at the entrance of Building 4.

It seems Baskett recently had auditioned for a role on The Exes to play a client of Faison’s character, sports agent Phil Chase.

The Exes airs Wednesday nights at 10:30 ET/9:30 CT on TV Land.
