Studio 60
Kings
Roommates

Anyone else feel the same?

Studio 60


I recently watched this on HULU and it was wayyy to preachy, not funny enough, and from everything I read about it and 30 rock, the writer's room on 30 Rock is way more accurate than Studio 60. There is no way you can convince me that one person could write every sketch for SNL in one week, that always bothered me.

If you're talking about the abortion of a show that was on ABC family then I must say you have no idea what good television is. That show was terrible. It made According to Jim seem like Seinfeld.

i liked these two.

Some of the ones I watched on HULU that I thought were good were The Loop and The Tick (live action with Putty from Seinfeld)

the main guy in The Loop was also in Reaper, which I liked and thought shouldn't have been canceled. And of course Pushing Daisies.

Forgot about this one. Great show. Didn't see it until the first season came out on DVD. It sucked to find out it was already on its deathbed by the time I found out about it.

it's pretty good if you like cheesy stuff. Nestor Carbonell as Bat Manuel is pretty funny. The chick is pretty good looking too, she's on CSI now. Also, the guy from Sons of Anarchy is in one episode.

Studio 60 was a show about a funny show (except that the "funny" show within the show wasn't funny).

30 Rock is a show about a show that is supposed to be a bit of a train wreck. That's why it works where Studio 60 never could.

I just finished watching Jericho. I got so mad when I realized that was it. Every episode was intense and the plot was great. Damn writers strike.
