On Linear TV long-running hits like "The Simpsons" and "This Is Us" joined "Ghosts," "The Wonder Years" and the reboot of "Magnum P.I." on the top list for Broadcast attention.  On Cable, CNBC's Olympics coverage engaged viewers best, while The Food Network also put two shows in the Top Five - "Guy's Grocery Games" and "The Kids Baking Championship. These shows kept viewers engaged throughout the ad break and delivered high attention for advertisers.
