Posted by at 10:21 am on May 27, 2015

Knife Fight - Season 2The Esquire Network announced Wednesday that two new original series will premiere this summer: docuseries “The Agent” and competition series “The Next Great Burger.” They will bow on back-to-back nights in late July.

“Agent,” billed as something of a “real life Jerry Maguire,” follows four top sports agents (Jeff Guerriero, Peter Schaffer, Sunny Shah and Ed Wasielewski) as they navigate the cutthroat world of professional football. The series will provide an inside look at America’s biggest sports obsession and will deliver exclusive access that will show viewers the money. It bows Tuesday, July 21 at 10 p.m., just in time for the start of NFL training camps.

Airing in the 10 p.m. hour starting Wednesday, July 22 is “The Next Great Burger.” A new generation of backyard BBQ kings are looking to take burgers to a whole new level, and that means a bigger, better, more adventurous experience that dares the taste buds. In this six-part competition series, ingenuity is on full display as up-and-coming culinary hopefuls have a shot to showcase their perfected version of one of the nation’s greatest obsessions: the burger.

Returning series include “American Ninja Warrior,” back for a seventh season on the network. Encores of the previous night’s firstrun episode on NBC will air Tuesdays at 8 on Esquire. It will be followed at 10 p.m. by the third season of “Knife Fight” (pictured), which will feature 16 chefs from the New York area.

“Car Matchmaker” roars into its second season on Wednesday, June 24 at 9 p.m. with a lineup featuring Rolling Stones bassist Darryl Jones, Los Angeles Clippers player Matt Barnes and car racing enthusiast Patrick Dempsey of “Grey’s Anatomy” fame.
