Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip

By mpr2020 I didn’t take to Studio 60 at first – its setting of a TV show made it seem very inbred. Sports Night, of course was also set around a TV show, but the power structures he had there seemed decidedly to echo the structure of government and the show read to me like an analogy for politics. Studio 60 is...

Matthew Perry was the only good thing about Studio 60, so I think he could do a dramatic role quite well. He needs to start picking better material than stuff like 17 Again, though--come on, Matthew! We all love you! Pick something actually great! ...

By 1979semifinalist SIDENOTE:  I should mention Sports Night. Also brilliant, and worthy of mention and a mark in history on its own.  It’s a crime it too did not last much longer than Studio 60…only 45 episodes…but since it came first I like to think of it as both proving my point, and as Sorkin getting his feet wet....

By Judie I am watching Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip now.
