ESPN First Take Moves to New Manhattan Studios

ESPN's popular host Molly Qerim has been making headlines as she and the show 'First Take' transition to ESPN's new studios at 7 Hudson Square in Lower Manhattan, marking a new chapter after broadcasting from the Seaport Studios since 2018. Qerim, who has co-hosted 'First Take' since 2015, continues to captivate audiences not only with her insightful sports commentary but also with her standout fashion choices, ranging from bold dresses to striking summer outfits, often praised by fans and colleagues alike. The move to the new location, which also hosts ESPN's 'Get Up' and 'UnSportsmanLike,' is seen as a strategic upgrade with cutting-edge production technology aimed at enhancing live programming and synergy within The Walt Disney Company. Despite the long hours and occasional sleep deprivation—highlighted by co-host Brian Windhorst's two-hour sleep mention after NBA Finals coverage—Qerim remains focused and stylish, embodying a blend of professionalism and flair. The new studio environment has energized the teams, with ESPN executives expressing enthusiasm about the fresh setting that matches the dynamic and bold nature of their flagship morning shows. Fans can continue to catch Qerim on 'First Take,' airing weekdays at 10 a.m. ET, as she sets the tone from the vibrant new Hudson Square location.
