It's Monday, which means it's time for another episode of the TV Is Good podcast, where Kathryn VanArendonk and I look at notable television shows from the present and the past. In this week's episode, it's a sports dramedy double feature, as we start off with a look at the shaky return of Ted Lasso.

From there, we pivot to a look back at Aaron Sorkin's first TV series, ABC's 1998 half-hour entry Sports Night, and discover it has more in common with the gang at AFC Richmond than we might have expected. (If you enjoy the Sports Night discussion, you might want to look at these retro recaps Linda Holmes and I wrote of the first season back in 2009.)
