From the 0-26 “Yuccaneers” to 2-Time Champions, Buccaneers Celebrate 50 Years with New Docuseries

The series covers the Buccaneers' transformation from an expansion team with an 0-26 start to two-time Super Bowl champions, featuring over 100 interviews with key figures.

  • On Thursday, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' new series debuts on Amazon Prime Video, chronicling their rise from expansion afterthought to championship contender, commissioned by Ed Glazer and directed by Trent Cooper.
  • Marking the anniversary, the team commissioned a project to examine triumphs and missteps over five decades and two ownership groups, with Ed Glazer saying it includes family reflections fans haven't heard before.
  • About 100 interviews anchor the series, including archival footage tracing Hugh Culverhouse's $16,000,000 purchase and $192,000,000 sale to Malcolm Glazer.
  • On-Field context ties the series to a team still competing for another title as the Buccaneers enter a Thursday game tied for first, wearing original creamsicle uniforms and defending four NFC South titles.
  • Personnel maneuvers and high-stakes trades form a central strand of the narrative, probing missteps like trading Steve Young and pursuing Bill Parcells twice before acquiring Jon Gruden for two first- and two second-round picks.
