Studio 60 on the Chopping Block? - Page 3

Guest · 10-24-2006, 10:12 PM

This is the best new show on television, humor that tv hasn't seen in years since the emergence of reality tv mania. Yes, the christian bashing can be harsh at times, but have you watched Saturday Night Live? This show is witty and I would be devastated to have to watch the "reality" garbage that lines that networks prime spots!

I watch limited TV and I TIVO most of those. My current list: The Daily Show, Two and a half Men, Heroes, and Studio 60. I may not watch on Monday night, per se, but you can be sure I watch it. Keep Studio 60!

Watched once. Couldn't see Perry and Whitford, who used to work for the "President", working for that grinning, unbelievable character they stuck on Amanda Peet

I have watched the show with high hopes, and seeing the development thus far has kepts me from loosing all hope in public media. I think the show is prepared to do great things and I hope it is not canceled

This show is great! It hasn't reached West Wing proportions, yet, but is still the best new show out there. What really NEEDS to happen is to stop pitting it against Monday Night Football! Who was the idiot who decided that? Put it on Tuesday or Wednesday night, and the ratings will be there...

How ironic that a show that has a central plot pitting the studio executives against the creative talent/writers and showcases the decisions surrounding sound marketing of potential hit shows is facing the same fate. Hey NBC, place this HIT SHOW in a different time-slot and let it develop. But please, don't bounce it around like ABC did with Commander in Chief. I believe they still think that show is on the air but forgot where they put it..

Im over in the UK and just love this show too. It is one of the best shows in recent years. It is clever comedy which requires a brain. Seems like the majortiy are put off by that. If this show is cancelled mid season I will most definately not be a happy chap. It is almost a crime that it is even being considered t be cancelled. This situation says alot for TV viewers today. Hey, at least I have West Wing to watch if it does get cancelled (never got round to watching any of the seasons). It's a great show - its a shame ratings go over art.

I want Studio 60 BACK On and I want it back NOW
This is a GREAT show and if someone or someones don't like it , that is their stupidity talking. It is a fast, smart show and those who don't like it probably can't follow it . . . consider the source!
I want Studio 60 BACK NOW

I'm sorry but Studio 60 was a terrible show. I can see those who agree with Sorkin's politics enjoying it but thats about all. Do we really believe the writers of some comedy sketch show (who never apparently come up with anything funny) are so witty and meaningful to the world? I found the show to be a sick joke and a prime example of the self important image some hollywood types have of themselves. If I want to hear constant rantings against Christians and Middle America I can turn on CNN. This show appealed to a small market segment who will support any show so long as the political undertones (and outright in your face politics) align with their own. The show was lucky to have lasted a full season.
