Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip: The Death Blow? - Page 2

Guest · 02-21-2007, 03:38 PM

I love the show.
I liked "West Wing". I was sure this one would do as well.
I can't understand why it's not working for others.
I kinda knew this was going to happen as I watched the shows.
To fast, to quick, to much trouble for lazy people to keep up with it, to understand it.
No violence, no sex, no bloody killings, and I guess to some, that means "just no fun".
I hate that it's going off the air.

The Harriet-Matt love/hate relationship was too BORING for me! More chemistry existed between Bradley Whitford and Matt Perry -- that was the show's strength -- and I'd sure like to see those two guys act together again in some other venue! I loved STUDIO 60 for the first two or three episodes but after that it became painfully apparent the writers had lost their cutting edge wit to laziness and they began struggling with staying true to the characters they hadn't fully developed. By the time the Harriet Dinner episode ended I ended up disliking the Harriet character because she bickered TOO much, especially about the slightest things. She became as plastic as a daytime soap. BAD WRITING!!! Almost as bad as SNL these days. By the time it was revealed Amanda Peet's character was to become an unwed mother, I knew this show wouldn't make it. The only thing this show achieved was showing the true talent of Matthew Perry. Before this, I thought he was okay on Friends but that he wasn't any

I love watching Studio 60. I think Matthew Perry is perfect on it. I hope they don't pull the plug on it.

I love this show and I hate when NBC pulls stuff like this. The writing is some of the best on tv. I really wanted to hate the Black Donnelly's too, but, unfortunately, I enjoyed it. Since I like the show so much it's inevitable that it will be canceled. That's just how it is. It can go down in history with the well-written likes of Dead Like Me, Arrested Development, Futurama, and The Tick as a show canceled before its time. Usually it's FOX that screws up so bad but it was about time NBC did, too. I mean, they're already trying to oust Scrubs and Medium what with their erratic scheduling. Why not add Studio 60 in there?

Listen up NBC...I for one will boycott any show you put in place of Studio 60...so I will not be watching THE BLACK DONNELLYS or any other show you place there. I have never written in about a show before so obviously, I feel strongly about this one. This show is well written with great characters who are witty, intelligent, funny and interesting! I don't want to watch yet another crime drama or reality show or ER type drama or law show. So please get a clue and stick with this winning combination. I hope others will join me in the BOYCOTT!

I agree with the writer who asks why there were so many gaps in the schedule for Studio 60. I keep thinking about this show and I already miss it. I wish it had never gone to NBC and instead gone to HBO because apparently network television can only stand behind ridiculous "reality" television which I am pretty sure the world has caught on that there is nothing real about it. I think NBC is holding this show hostage and will not be getting my viewing unless they do bring Studio 60 back. I think it is very interesting that they haven't made any announcement on their website.

LOVE the show! WHY would they start something against CSI which has not yet worn thin! PLEASE, PLEASE bring Studio 60 back - Friday at 10pm perhaps or some other valuable timeslot - you may measure ratings based against CSI but us consuming public guys simply want to watch good shows - and this IS definitely one of them! The 2 characters play VERY well off each other - I always tape the show... the Donnelly's will end when they're all massacred so enough already. Of course,if we could simply move on from Matt & Harriett - wonderful duo but... too much. Primary actors are wonderful, absolutely wonderful.

I always made time for Studio 60 and as a result watched other shows on the network. NBC, if this show doesn't return, I won't either.

I really loved this show. I've been watching prime time tv hoping to come across it. I just happened to do a little research on it and I am very disappointed to know that it might be getting pulled. What a shame. It's an awesome show, with a lot of messages going on there. Too bad. It will be missed.

Black Donnelly's; where does N B C have its brain?
It would moronic to cancel the show Studio 60.
