本剧基于Jeff Pearlman的书籍《Showtime: Magic, Kareem, Riley, and the Los Angeles Lakers Dynasty of the 1980s》创作,聚焦1980年代的洛杉矶湖人队,讲述队员的职业生涯和个人生活,以及那些在球场内外帮助定义了一个时代的非凡人物。在"表演时刻"期间,湖人队称霸NBA,5夺总冠军,是体育界最受崇敬、最具统治力的王朝之一。 "Showtime"曾被用作剧名,表示湖人队的"showtime era"。但由于与美国有线台Showtime撞名,并且该台是HBO竞争对手,剧集为避免混淆而放弃了沿用书名。
The series is based on Antonia Murphy’s unpublished memoir about an American woman who opened an ethical escort agency in New Zealand after the country decriminalized sex work. Murphy’s company aimed to protect women’s rights, well-being and financial independence. Griffiths stars as McKenzie ‘Mack’ Leigh, who sets up an ethical brothel in New Zealand after her philandering husband and mountain of debt leave her struggling to provide for her family.
Tracker, the first new broadcast drama to premiere this season, is also the first freshman scripted series to land a Season 2 renewal. Amid strong ratings following its post-Super Bowl premiere, CBS has picked up a second season of the series starring Justin Hartley after four airings.
