Melinda Witmer, Executive Vice President and Chief Video and Content Officer for Time Warner Cable — and TVWeek Cable Television Woman of the Year — said in a statement,  “We’re so proud of the teams at Time Warner Cable Sports, as they have worked incredibly hard to launch these networks. From the first Spanish-language regional sports network in the country to a comprehensive viewing experience for all fans, we know that these groundbreaking networks will set a new standard for Southern California sports fans when they launch on Monday

The announcement adds, "Time Warner Cable SportsNet will debut at 7 p.m. with a two-hour live special edition of the network’s signature show ‘Access SportsNet’ that will feature Lakers Kobe Bryant, Dwight Howard and Steve Nash and Galaxy superstar David Beckham as in-studio guests. This will be followed by the world premiere of ‘Backstage: Lakers,’ the network’s weekly behind-the-scenes documentary show, at 9 p.m. ‘Backstage: Lakers’ will take fans from the end of the 2011-12 season in Oklahoma City to the start of 2012-13 training camp, giving an inside look at the arrival of Steve Nash and Dwight Howard, examining fan reactions to the Lakers’ headline-making offseason and a look behind-the-scenes of Lakers media day.

"Time Warner Cable Deportes will launch at 7 p.m. with a two-hour ‘Bienvenidos a Time Warner Cable Deportes’ live special that features Beckham, Bryant and Nash as in-studio guests, plus Laker Pau Gasol and Galaxy midfielder Landon Donovan. Next on the network will be ‘Somos Lakers, La Biografía’ at 9 p.m. and ‘Los 16 del Galaxy’ at 9:30 p.m., which profile the storied histories of the two teams. ‘Encuentro Deportivo’ will premiere at 10 p.m. and the half-hour live, nightly show will update viewers on the day’s most complete sports activity, in Southern California as well as internationally."
