Since I've accepted the fact that this isn't going to be an all time great show, I've come to enjoy this for what it is. :ehh:



Is Aaron Sorkin always this corny? I never watched The West Wing, but The Social Network wasn't this corny.

Surprisingly, Olivia Munn's character is like a breath of fresh air out of the clusterfukk of Don, his girlfriend and McKenzie's guy. The force triangle is so boring I can't remember the names.

Sam Waterston was born to play this role.

:pachaha: at everytime he yells fukk and looses his temper.

Pretty much just seems that people didn't like that she was a real nerd, just a model/actress, ignoring the fact that damn near everyone on the station save for Morgan Webb, Sessler and Kevin were actors/models/comedians that would love to be in the position Munn is right now.

Even Blair, the comic book head, is a comedian and was a writer on the show before being an on air person.

she wasn't though.

Munn is fukking sexy/ and a good actress. She was on Perfect Couples which was a knockout show, too bad it got cancelled.

Definitely the best episode of the season....from start to finish.

I'll just have to accept this "we're always right/better than everyone else" shyt.

Too much piff in this episode. Olivia & Charlie, Will & Sutton, Will & Terry Crews, etc

Any coincidence that the show with the least amount of Maggie & Jim is the best? I think not.
