Best New TV Shows Research 1

I looked at ABC's fall lineup and premier date. The 5 new shows they are releasing are  American HousewifeConvictionDesignated SurvivorNotorious and Speechless. The show Speechless stood out to me in particular because it was being advertised on the side of the screen. It is a show about a mom who will do anything for her husband and kids, one of which has cerebral palsy. The premier is on Wednesday, September 21st at 8:30 pm.

I believe Speechless will be very successful because it has been marketed really well. I've seen commercials on TV. The trailer and a sneak peak are both on ABC.com. I also hear radio ads and see billboards on the highway. I may watch Speechless if I have time because it seems like an interesting show.

Introduction

Hi! I'm Lauren. I'm a senior at the high school. I live with my Mom, Dad and younger brother Matt (13). I am enjoying senior year so far, especially my English class and Anatomy class. Outside of school I play libero for the varsity volleyball team. I also enjoy babysitting and taking part in Class Office, and A World of Difference. When I'm not playing volleyball or at school I like to watch Netflix and listen to music. If I could go out to eat tonight, I would go to Tokyo Steakhouse or to get pizza. I would get ice cream for dessert.
