The Newsroom passed "preposterous" at about the five-minute mark of the pilot.
A suggestion on how to improve the show, though. Dump Allison Pill. She's a wonderful actress (I've seen her in a few plays), but every time her character and subplots come on screen, it's death to the show. Concentrating less on the love lives of peripheral characters and more on the nuts and bolts of putting a show together -- and the conflicts therein -- would make a much better show. Sorkin, for all his talents, cannot write romantic comedy, no matter what he thinks. --Dave Sikula On Tuesday, August 7, 2012 12:37:51 PM UTC-7, Bob in Jersey wrote: > > The latest episode, where the crew hears of bin Laden's killing, inspires > a whole new round mostly of teeing off from crix such as from HuffPost and > Thompson-on-H'wood... > > THR<http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/newsroom-aaron-sorkin-jeff-daniels-osama-bin-laden-358714> > > > > -- > BOB > -- TV or Not TV ....
