HBO releases the official Tour De Pharmacy trailer. From the brains behind the great 7 Days in Hell, Tour De Pharmacy premieres July 8.
Around these Awards Daily TV parts, Andy Samberg’s 7 Days in Hell ranked highly in our general esteem. Basically, we loved the shit out of it. So, naturally, we were insanely excited to see Samberg and team are returning Saturday, July 8, for HBO’s Tour De Pharmacy. This new sports mockumentary takes on the world of cycling and features an unusual cameo. This week, HBO finally released the full Tour De Pharmacy trailer plus a full description. Take a look.
In 1982, during a dark and fictitious time in cycling history, the sport’s most venerable, time-honored race was marred by the doping of virtually all of its competitors. Riddled with nefarious characters, that year’s competition was a hornet’s nest of moral depravity. Through the perspective of five riders, Tour De Pharmacy gives an inside look into the grim realities of the darkest event in a sport notoriously tainted by controversy.
Starring and executive produced by Andy Samberg (“Brooklyn Nine-Nine”; HBO’s “7 Days In Hell”), and written and executive produced by Murray Miller (“King of the Hill”; HBO’s “Girls”), this fictional, none-too-serious look at that sordid event debuts Saturday, July 8 (10:00–10:50 p.m. ET/PT), exclusively on HBO.
