    Description

    Whether you've ever watched Aaron Sorkin's 1998-2000 classic series Sports Night or not, this episode explains its 2018 relevance and calls for a reboot. We recently reviewed a sexual harassment plot from That Girl (1967) & found a similar scenario in Sports Night... which leads us to pondering the journalism's commitment to changing workplace harassment.   Resources Advanced TV Herstory Episode 3: Sports Night (1998-2000) Advanced TV Herstory Episode 84: That Girl and Sexual Harassment January 2018 Sports Business Daily December 2017 Julie DiCaro June 2018 The Hollywood Reporter June 2018 New York Magazine July 2018 Corporate Dispatch May 2018 Forbes October 2017 ABC News

    Finally, a podcast that studies, analyzes and celebrates women in TV. Thousands of comedies, variety shows and dramas have aired, yet the presence of strong women – both in front of and behind the camera - is an experience we need to understand better and embrace. With an eye to aligning the leadership lesson, time capsule observation or fascinating backstory of a show’s success or failure, my goal of Advanced TV Herstory is to connect the treasures of the past to the great potential of today’s TV and online platforms. Tomorrow’s success is rooted in understanding what has come before us. So gear up for a little sociology, economics, strategy, storytelling and fun.
