During production, hopes at The Science Channel were so high for The Science of Lance Armstrong, that it ended up serving as cornerstone for Discovery Channel’s “Lance Week.” And the finished product did not disappoint. The show is a highly regarded in depth look into everything that makes Lance tick—from the physiological testing and training he’s undergone, to the technology that helped him gain those extra seconds.

Although the show was in development at The Science Channel for many months, the final go ahead to start production came in late March of 2005, leaving a meager three months to complete the task. On June 27, 2005, more than 120 hours of footage later, The Science of Lance Armstrong premiered in 160 countries after being translated into 35 languages.

Steve Burns, VP & Executive in Charge of Production, and Charlie Parsons, Executive Producer at The Science Channel, were Rivet's main collaborators on the show, and they did an amazing job of ensuring cooperation between the many entities involved.
