Okay, I think it's starting to happen. Aaron Sorkin, creator/head writer of
Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip, has finally figured out the right balance for his show. Less preaching, less air time for the sketches on the show-within-the-show, and more over-arching story lines moving from episode to episode. Viewers, however, have been all over
Studio 60 lately, and the backlash, I suppose, could be expected.
Anytime a show brings up big social issues, a faction of the population is going to take offense to how those ideas are brought up. I've stated all along that Sorkin knows what he's doing and will listen to the criticism and learn. TV shows, dramas especially, don't come you out of the gates as well-oiled machines. It takes awhile. We all just have to be patient.
