Wow wow wow. I knew it was coming. And now it’s here. The bidding war surrounding Studio 60 was a lesson for Sorkin. It’s not just about the highest bidder but finding the right fit. Thus HBO is absolutely the best move. They fully back series and I suggest this one should get well past 1 season. The truncated story arc on Studio 60 was a sad result of being on a network which didn’t fully support it, and which made the stupid decision of greenlighting two behind the scenes of a late night comedy show shows in the same season (I refer you to 30 Rock). Studio 60 had higher ratings but a much higher budget.
End rant.
This show will probably be the best thing on television this year.

It’s like Studio 60 meets Sports night, but with new actors. Yet still I can’t wait!
Everybody say: ‘I’m as mad as hell and I’m not going to take this anymore.’

how do you know all this gold Mr Cowling? I’ve always wondered why Studio 60 never saw more than 1 season.
