Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip (2006)

I agree with you! I have only watched this series once and in the back of my head, I still think Sarah Paulson got her start on SNL and I have to remember it was the copy on this show! I have watched Newsroom twice as well. I am due for another Sunset Strip. The acting/dialogue is phenom! I just watched all the Aaron Sorkin episodes of The West Wing this Spring! Sometimes, you just need really good fastballs coming your way and a guaranteed smile on your face!

Thanks for the tip Lily - I’m doin’ it! :-)

Don’t forget “Sports Night” the beginning of the [fast-moving acting & dialog] and the combination of Sorkin and his favorite director Thomas Schlamme (Lahti’s husband) really worked. Episodes were written for future seasons and were intellectually done like “West Wing” but the candy for the cardboard masses “30 Rock” won out when dumbass NBC programming execs should have never ever made them compete.
