A little clunky, but I liked it.
The love-triangle bullship is contrite, but I knew it would be there.
As mentioned before, the amount of info they pulled up from the time they were arguing until showtime was impossible, even for the best of the best. Jim knowing a lot of that crap about the oil rig just seems to contrived.
And more unrealism kicked in: Um, all the new people just happened to know how to use the computer system? I've worked in many TV and newspaper newsrooms...it's not that streamlined that you can walk in and know how work ship like that. (eg. the brand-new EP walking up to the Chyron op and changing a graphic in under a minute)
Although, the computer system looked a bit like ENPS, so I would have been able to slide in.
Yet...the show kept me watching. So I guess it's OK in my book.
