Running Studio 60 thread (spoilers)

Contrived... there was a word I was searching for when I made my post about why I didn't like this episode. Thanks broadway.

 

McKinney's been with the show all season. I believe he's the sketch writer. Not sure how much he contributes to the rest of it.

 

If this show had been created by Johnny Noname instead of Aaron Sorkin, would anyone be watching?

 

Yes.

 

Starring Matthew Perry, et al? Yes.

Starring unknowns? Probably not.

 

Yeah, this was pretty much the WW episode where they get lost in Indiana, and the good-natured yokels try to help them out despite being offended by their arrogance, but then there's the zany time zone mishap and Josh and Toby miss the plane, and then, ...

Still, it's better than pretty much anything else on TV right now.

 

Ummm ... ever try watching The Wire?

 

Yes, one example obviously cancels out the "pretty much" in his statement.

Good call.

 

My feeling about The Wire is ... ahhh, I don't want to piss people off like they piss me off when they diss shows I like.

 

This show was good, but nothing beats that West Wing episode for laughs. Toby trying to order at the hick sandwich shop was hilarious, as was Josh hanging up on CJ just as she expounds on the charms of dry rub. Goodman was fine, but nothing in Studio 60 was as funny as the WW.

 

Toby Ziegler. I work at the White House.

 

It's ok shotty. CSI really does suck, but that doesn't make you a bad person. We still love you. ;D
