What's It About?
From the ABC.COM home page you can link to the network's primetime shows, daytime shows, news, ESPN sports, the ABC store, and stuff for your cell phone (ringtones, wallpaper and games). And, except for the characters bios, shows' music information, and message boards, there's not a lot of "extras" -- it's pretty much if you see it on TV, you'll find it here. You can also request tickets online to shows like The View, Jimmy Kimmel, and Dancing with the Stars and become a member of their studio audience. And if you can't miss even a minute of what's happening at ABC, you can become a registered member and sign up for one of their newsletters.
Is It Any Good?
While ABC.com has a ton of links and clicks, it's easy to navigate and well-organized and fans can find anything they want about their favorite shows (think McDreamy and the ladies of Wisteria Lane) with minimally invasive advertising.
