TV: That remote in your hand is a crack pipe!

Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. Wow. Never watched enough West Wing to get into it- badly scheduled here- and Sports Night fared even worse. But this, this is good. The speech? Fantastic. That could become a classic TV moment. It felt like you were watching it actually go down, like this is a show that had been on air for years and now someone is tearing it down. So many characters are winners. I don't think we've seen enough of the Big Three to get a feel for them yet, but the rest are immediately great. With so many shows, even great shows, you need several episodes to really get into its characters, but here it was immediate. This one's going to be a keeper.

And I mainly posted this to say one thing:

Aaron Sorkin, you are a beast.

Every episode. Every episode! He's writing the whole season! The whole of many seasons, I guess, if it continues, which it will, because wow. Like what tends to happen with heaps of British shows, except those tend to have seasons about eight episodes long. And this is just the norm for him! Oh my Christ. Beast.
