From the reboot of Roseanne to freshman hit The Good Doctor, ABC seems like it's finally ready to climb out of fourth place. This week, we invite Adweek TV editor Jason Lynch onto the show to talk about these shows and what trends they might spark. We also talk about a fun new ad for a museum exhibit, a bizarrely (and intentionally) frustrating ad campaign on the NYC Subway and Laura Ingraham's advertiser fallout after she mocked a Parkland shooting survivor.
