I thought that was really well done, particularly the part where Hughley's character, Simon, straight up told the n00b that he couldn't fuck up.10/25/2006 8:16:39 PM |

this is definitely, unequivocally, one of the best television shows on this season. aaron sorkin is a great writer --
and hell, after having worked in TV for a couple years, this stuff is *spot on*. 10/25/2006 10:14:11 PM |

30 rock is better than this show 10/25/2006 10:15:52 PM |

I am sick of people comparing 30 Rock to Studio 60. Studio 60 is categorized as a drama ie not a sitcom. Sure it has some laughs but its not meant to be setup, punchline. 10/25/2006 10:18:31 PM |

Lost is better than The Rachel Ray Show.
See how two shows don't have to be similar for one to be clearly better than the other? 10/25/2006 10:26:32 PM |

30 rock and studio 60 are relatable...
both shows have numbers in their titles denoting how many minutes eash show is in length 10/25/2006 10:28:33 PM |

god this show sucks, its like taking all the bad parts from other shows and putting them together. how sappy was last week's show? i felt like i was watching some regurgitated 80's drama. jesus herbert christ, who would have guessed that the old man was an ex-cast member?!?! 10/26/2006 1:51:38 PM |

yeah he was a writer that got blacklisted after getting one sketch on the show, and there was a parallel between him and matt, in that the reason they wrote well was to impress a chick. 10/26/2006 11:22:46 PM |

Quote : | "NBC Chief Says 'Studio 60' Will Stay NBC Universal CEO Robert Wright has denied reports that Aaron Sorkin's Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip is about to be canceled. In an interview with FoxNews.com's Roger Friedman, who originally quoted insiders as saying that the show was about to be yanked from the network's schedule, Wright said such a move was unlikely because "We have too much money invested in it. ...

Fucking excellent so far. I'm so pissed they're probably gonna cancel this.
("I'm so pissed" LOL...I'm not really...now that I'm not a teen, I gotta get used to my shows getting the can...meh, I've watched my parents go through it and never really understood because Dawson's Creek/90210 didn't get cancelled in their first year, you know...)

they are not cancelling it. that article was a rumor, and it has been confirmed by NBC that it will not be cancelled in the near future. it is also growing a following.
In the days of DVDs, once the first season is released, the second seasons ratings will pick up. 11/6/2006 11:30:32 PM |

why dont they try swapping timeslots with heroes or something? heroes is extremely popular already and wouldn't suffer from the later timeslot, so maybe people would be more inclined to check out studio 60 if it were on sooner.
i'm glad that they didn't leave friday night lights on mondays at least. that would be dumb airing a football tv show in direct competition with monday night football.

Wait, if TV Shows are not allowed to use "Jesus Christ" as an expletive then how was the last Studio 60 episode made?
I ask because this wouldn't be the first time it has been used that way on TV. 11/9/2006 9:07:48 AM |
