The long night for Danny, Jordan, Tom, Simon, and Jack comes to an end. There's a new beginning for Danny and Jordan, as well as Matt and Harriet.
Aaron Sorkin, the mastermind behind "West Wing" and "Sports Night" brings NBC's next great drama, Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. Featuring an all-star cast in front of and behind the camera, such as "Friends" alum Matthew Perry, "West Wing" alum Bradley Whitford, plus the talented Amanda Peet, D.L.… More Hughley, and veteran Ed Asner. Sorkin, who will handle much of the writing duties, makes sure this vehicle promises to be the fall's most buzzed about new drama. So come take a fascinating look behind the scenes of Studio 60, a fictional sketch-comedy series on the NBS broadcast network. Problem is the series seems to be going down the tube fast. Everyone involved with the late-night dud seems to have one problem or another, including the current Executive Producer, who just had an on-air mental meltdown, and time is running out fast. Enter the network's Chairman of the Board (Steven Weber) and a new network president (Amanda Peet) looking to make her mark on the net. Her answer is move is to bring in a pair of fresh-faced writers (Matthew Perry and Bradley Whitford) to try and save the series. Will it work?
I've just startd whatching this show i'm on episode 10 and unless the rest of the season drops unimaginably in quality i dont understand why it was canceled. it is beatiful uality television. funny and serious. it is perhaps a parody of itself. it reallly shows up the american TV industry… More or the american TV iewing public if a show of this quality gets canceled, shame on the viewers for not supporting a show that s probably the best tv show on the air in years. and shame on networks for pandering to viewing figures and not a show a chance to flourish. To me it's wither stupd american public or stupid american networks panderin to the simpletons and denying the rest of the vaughly inteligent humans a chance for some sort of firfullment. I blame the networks! becuase i belive wholeheartedly in the people no matter whatcountry or what continent. i belive it's the money hungey scumags that are destorying creativity ion the planet.
I really miss this show. Is there any shows similar to it by any chance?
Matthew will try his hand at TV once again in a new Showtime pilot entitled The End of Steve. Perry will play a local talk show host who is very bitter when the cameras are off. He strives to find professional and personal happiness. Peter Tolan (Rescue Me, Larry Sanders Show) will produce. … More Here is the link to the TVGUIDE report: http://community.tvguide.com/blog-entry/TVGuide-News-Blog/Todays-News/Pilot-News-Matthew/800041846
Gotta say.. This is one of the best series I've the pleasure to watch.. And yet I understand why it was ended. Notice: ended not "cancelled". All the greatest things have ends. People should realize of that, and in this particularly case I have to say it: there where no other stuff to go on. Everybody got their happy endings and doing another season would have been wrong unless they change characters or the final episode. Let's just say it.. sometimes its better not to have a second part, and just let the future of personates on the imagination of the viewers.
The best show never to get a Second Season hide show
I love this show, matthew perry and all the crew are amazing, i dont think there is one missed beat in the entire series.
Sorkin does an amazing job of creating characters and storylines which are so easy to follow, yet incredibly inteligent. This is the best example of articulate scripting. Rather than pander to the lowest denomonater, Studio 60 provides a show for those willign to accept an intellectualy stimulating experience.
My greatest shock came when i discovered that this was not being renewed. However this show was my gateway into sorkins work, and i because of this show i have had the joy of watching and understanding the instiution that was the West Wing....the West Wing was great, in my opinion this is BETTER
Awesome show, cancelled too early. I watched it while it was on and remembered thinking how silly it was that it got cancelled. I started watching it again a few days ago and finished the whole season because it was so good I couldn't stop watching it. Now, I am very sad that it was cancelled and there are no more episodes to watch. It seems very stupid that it ever got cancelled and wasn't picked up by another channel. The cast was perfect for the show and they were perfect together. They all had amazing chemistry and timing. There's nothing else that I can say except go watch it and experience it for yourself.
Studio 60 was one of those show that was before it's time I guess. hide show
It is really sad that this show was not around for more then one season. It was so good. I believe with all my heart that this is top ten of the best shows to go on the air of all time. It was not on the air long enough. The ensemble cast was top notch I don't think you could have had a better cast. Matthew Perry led the cast along with Bradley Whitford and Amanda Peat. Studio 60 not only had top notch acting what was the best about this show was the writing of Aaron Sorkin. I loved him since The West Wing but this show just elevated him in my mind to greatness. I long for the days of Studio 60. Again This show was to good for TV because it didn't suck.
FANTASTIC !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hide show
I cant believe that they cancelled this show. What for? Deal or no deal? Or some other absurd reality show. This show had it ALL. The writing was great and you found yourself realting to many character. And the comdeic timing of this cast was unbelievable. How is that we can get saturated with Law & order and CSI but cant keep a show if this quality on the air? Do the poeple that decide ever actually watch the show? More importantly do they have any artistic integurity at all or will they just feed the masses the garbage they want to turn a profit. Hopefully the smart folks at HBO can pick it up even or something like it. I dont expect Network TV to have any brains which is why they are losing audiences by the second.
