Airing on Saturdays with two original weekly half-hour episodes in over 200 markets is Central Ave,  the entertainment and pop culture newsmagazine that targets a multicultural audience and delivers reporting through a socially conscious and diverse lens.

Producing the show are Lionsgate’s Debmar-Mercury and record-breaking producer Will Packer (Night School, Girls Trip) and hosting it are veteran entertainment reporter Julissa Bermudez (106 & Park) and Sanya Richards-Ross, a former Olympic track star and five-time gold medalist. They return to their historic roles as the first two women of color to host an entertainment magazine show.
