1. I'm watching it.

There seems to be a concerted effort to trash this show in the mainstream media (of course) but I will watch anything Aaron Sorkin puts out there. That diatribe at Northwestern in the show was a thing of beauty.

Sorkin can even make me like Sam Waterston again and Jeff Daniels even makes me want to go to Michigan . . . which I will do as soon as they get democracy back - I'm JOKING! I've only watched it 2 or three times and actually, I think I am going to go watch it again ... |

2. Enough. Must've been the shrooms talking.

Last edited Wed Jun 27, 2012, 06:03 PM USA/ET - Edit history (3) On one level, brilliant beyond compare - particularly on Cable Teevee v1.2. But, that says more about the rest of what we've become and are watching.
I think we're in a really deep funk. But, even that doesn't last. |

3. Aaron Sorkin may have done it again. The premiere was certainly a good one.
|
& HBO put it on YouTube, indicating that they might have a clue. We'll see about that, too.

Smart writing. Assumes were not idiots. I like that kind of thing.
