    Definitely going to be my new show to watch, jumping into first place ahead of many other programmes, mainly because Aaron Sorkin is all kinds of genius. And HBO are far and away the best network in the States when it comes to original programming. TPB will be visited tomorrow.....

    Glad you like mate, he really is one hell of a writer.

    Also the first thing i ever learnt in my screenwriting class was that good writing means the viewer will relate with a character on the screen even though their and your situations a totally different. Aaron has done this perfectly as you find yourself relating to characters in different ways.

    It's just bloody brillant TV.

    Just downloaded yesterday's episode (#4), gonna check it out. So far it has been head and shoulders above anything I've seen in recent times bar maybe Boardwalk Empire....which is also HBO.

    This is true, i'm downloading the hell out of this later.

    Did you ever watch Sorkin's studio 60? Bet you did didn't you. I might watch that over again in the mean time.

    You'll see a couple of similarities but i'd say so far newsroom is already a more intelligent show, but that doesn't mean studio 60 isn't fantastic, it is one of my favourite TV shows ever. A shame it got cut really but you'll see the reasoning why as it was very critical of TV networks throughout. Also you had 30 rock come out at the same time which was vaguely about the same subject and apparently there wasn't room for both.

    Also Matt Perry gets a massive special mention for being the actor out of friends to actually do something decent and shake off his friends character. He's fantastic, enjoy it mate.

    Just saw this post. I'm the same buddy. I don't watch tv in itself unless it's for sports, plus French tv is a bit shite apart from a couple of decent quiz shows. For the tv shows worth watching I heed the advice of my friends back home or the good posters on here.
