The Newsroom
 

Has anyone seen this show on HBO?

I must say, I've never been too much into the Political/Broadcast realm, but this show (even though the first season was only 5 episodes), is freaking amazing.

All HBO series are amazing. It's not TV, it's HBO.

It's not delivery - it's Digiorno.

Speaking of which, I'm looking forward to Season 3 of Boardwalk Empire... Scorsese is a genius.


It's weird to see Jeff Daniels in such a serious and captivating roll instead of Harry sitting on the toilet in Dumb N Dumber!

5 episodes?

Oh snap! I didn't know it was still going on. I have been streaming it and it only had 5 episodes. Assumed they pulled a Walking Dead.

So 10 episodes, my bad! :)

The Newsroom is my new favorite show, i am very much into politics, and Aaron Sorkin REALLY nails this show on the head, and Jeff Daniels is a fucking PHENOMINAL actor.

It's HBO.

It isn't The Wire or anything, but pretty entertaining. I do think it is kind of interesting that they are being some what critical of mainstream news media through a fictional drama in which they use real news stories with the benefit of hindsight. I mean, I'll be the first to criticize the 24/7 news outlets, but it is a lot easier to portray journalistic integrity in a television drama with hindsight than it is on the fly.

More importantly though, who is this newjack stealing my Ron Paul avatar :confused:

I'm going to start watching The Wire in the next few weeks. I've heard it is gold (as HBB has stated, mostly everything HBO does is gold).


I thought Hung and Bored to death kinda sucked though (glad they got pulled).

Kinda liked How to Make It In America though!
