This week, in an annual event called the “upfronts,” television networks are presenting their new fall schedules to advertisers and members of the TV press — including our own James Poniewozik, who has been filing daily dispatches. Trailers released during the presentations will give you a few months to decide which shows to save a spot for on your DVR.
From ABC, we can expect a TV version of Little Giants, but with a mom instead of a dad, and baseball instead of football (Back in the Game); Rebel Wilson as a girl gone a little bit wild (Super Fun Night); and, as seen above, a Wonder Years-style trip down memory lane (The Goldbergs).
The rest of the ABC trailers are here are here on YouTube.
