For the second year in a row I watched streaming coverage of ABC's Upfront presentation in the comfort of my home office via ABC MediaNet, and once again I don't feel that I missed much by not being at Lincoln Center's Avery Fisher Hall in person. It saddens me that the company doesn't do more on one of its most important days of the year to support the work of Steve McPherson, President, ABC Entertainment Group, and his programming team.
ABC continued to take a low-key approach to its Upfront event, even as the other broadcast networks this year are stepping up their game and doing everything they can to get their messages out and champion their new and returning shows.
