It sucks because I liked Datanas confidence and aggressiveness. Then it turned to blind arrogance.

This show is really on fire now

The dialogue right now is just....so fukking good, I find myself rewinding parts just to absorb what is being said.

Knowing how Genoa went hasn't really hurt seeing it played out, the storyline is just that well constructed.

I can't lie I had no idea who Sorkin was before I started watching this show, but I'm definitely a fan now.

I think everything he's done post-Studio 60 has been amazing......Charlie Wilson's War, Moneyball, The Social Network, and The Newsroom.

Who did Olivia Munn blow to get this role? She's just not a good actress imo


i had the same reservation you had when I found out she was going to be on the show, but I feel she had done a good job, she doesn't look good angry, which Sorkin in his need to fix everything esle, fix that too.

Apparently, she is everybody's favorite female character and second favorite character on the show after Don. I would not be shocked if there is a Sloan Sabbath spinoff

:leon:

She is currently my favorite character on the show. I haven't seen her act outside of this show - So to me she is doing a great job acting as highly intelligent, dry, eccentric, but humorous and caring person-in her own little way.

The advice about the focus group and support that she gave Will was subtle. I also liked the way she said "I ain't forget" :ufdup: to him - that was dope. She didn't even have to lecture him...although she could have.

I also liked how she admitted that the photos were of her and took ownership. She cried about it and moved on. That was big. She also supported Don in the last episode while she was grieving. Respectable.

The dap that Charlie gave her showed that they have great respect and love for each other.

I like her.

Nah, she's the most popular character. A lot of people don't like Don. He can be a little smarmy sometimes.
