Opportunity knocks for Elon alumni with 'Little Knockers,' parody of HBO's 'Hard Knocks'

By Leena Dahal

The terrifying prospect of not seeing your classmates again is in the minds of every college graduate. But you would be surprised by how much collaboration exists among Elon University alumni. Tim Johnson, alumnus of the Class of 2009, teamed up with other Elon alumni to create the three-part comedic web series "Little Knockers," a parody of HBO’s intensely heated "Hard Knocks." WATCH: 'Little Knockers' has more than 100,000 views on FunnyorDie.com. While retaining the same level of drama from “Hard Knocks,” “Little Knockers” projects the seriousness of the HBO series towards a peewee football team, creating a hysterical complex among the young children and the over-the-top head coach, played by Jim O’Heir from the popular NBC series "Parks and Recreation." Johnson, the director and producer, worked closely with writer and producer Jonathan Marty to create the show.
