This show was underrated and showed Matthew Perry's acting chops, RIP Matt

Rest In Peace Mr Matthew Perry 😪

It still makes me angry this show didnt get a longer run, phenomenal writing, phenomenal cast, such an amazing all round show.

I used to love watching it every Saturday night in mid-00s. It was a great time for TV with the (original) Gossip Girl also just getting going around then.

Triple same. Had no idea this existed. Sucks it didn't pan out. I just got to the part in his book about this and now I'm dreading to read what happens when the show ultimately goes under. Seemed like this could have been a really good thing for him. They should have sold it to HBO instead of network fucking television.

​@@markchevrier9756They actually have a storyline about a show they're trying to acquire for the network, but the writer thinks the content is more suited for HBO.

Still better than Newsroom. And people say Perry did it as Chandler and I disagree. Great show

RIP Matthew Perry. This show reunited him and Amanda Peet after the “Whole Yards” franchise

This show was too good, too intelligent for NBC, not enough morons eating bugs and yelling "Your fired!"

It may not be about running a country, but it's framed as if the stakes were that high. Can't wait for the next Sorkin gem about running a youtube channel with lightning-speed dialogue and do-or-die intensity.

the scene with Sting singing ❤

I loved this show. It deserved better.

I think people got cheesed off by the self importance shown by the characters and the show. Whereas the character on TWW were running the country and their actions had implications on the entire country at times, therefore allowing the characters to carry off the attitude of self importance, the same isn't true on Studio 60. Another big problem was that the sketch comedy on the show was horrible. We keep getting told that Matt Alby(Matthew Perry) is a great writer, but none of the sketches seem remotely funny.

I will never understand how this show got cancelled. It was Sorkin for gods sake!

It's like a darker 30-rock.

So damn fast paced and great personaities that just shows how the real people have to be on the cutting edge and precise! It was also the comedy show for the intelligent! no slap stick or stupid jokes!

The most amazing one season show of all time.

I could do the whole thing as Holly Hunter if you want...

Ten minutes ago, I didn’t know that I had never heard of this show. Wow! Incredible stuff!

Used to be one of my favorite show!

I still don't watch the network that killed it. Normally I'm a very forgiving person but in this one instance I'm choosing to be petty and childish. At least I can see it on my DVD set and the Itunes digital copy I bought. Yes, I confess, I'm a bit of a fanatic about this show. I don't stalk the creators or cast, but I do subject each person I become friends with to it so they too can experience what quality entertainment on TV should be.

30 Rock won

Just watched all of it on Hulu, amazing show. The show would have been better without the last 4 episode story arc, but it ended the show better than Sports Night. Amazing talent was on this show, which is why it is sad the show got canned but NBC continues to keep the lesser seen 30 rock on to keep Fey at NBC.

Bad take. 30 Rock went on to win numerous Emmys and become a hit. NBC just shouldn’t have greenlit two shows about sketch shows on the same year.

Is this the same premise as Newsroom but with lower stakes?

I really wish this show was as hot as it looks in the trailer

everyone sounds the same

At the time they made this show the networks were all coming up with celebrity poker shows and the Travel channel was doing show featuring professional video poker players, so about a sketch about celebrity video poker staring some of the celebrities with hard to work with reputations?

miss this show.. damn you for cancel it

the newsroom :)

Probably because it was canceled years ago

I noticed a lot of lines that weren't in the broadcast version of the pilot.

I’ve been trying to get my wife to watch this on DVD. She doesn’t seem interested. I may have to divorce her because if it.

Even the official trailer seems to announce how it was destined to prove heavy on the Aaron Sorkin-isms and light on fresh insights. Brilliant cast, though.

there is a good reason why 30 Rock went on to have multiple seasons and continued cultural relevance and why this show didn't and is barely remembered. Aaron Sorkin's writing, whatever you want to say about it, it tends to try and give things a very grand sense of importance. Like he treats this SNL knockoff as if its like some amazingly important thing culturally. and that just...doesn't work for a comedy. Or at least a comedy like this. The way 30 Rock handled its show within the show, is that it recognizes that it sucks. Its dreck, it reaches for the lowest common denominator, and it and the people involved are ultimately just small cogs in a larger corporate machine. It leans into the real life absurdism of working in the television industry and you feel it because Tina Fey is a veteran of those things. Aaron Sorkin meanwhile is a guy who got his big break writing plays before becoming a scriptwriter for movies. He doesn't know the belly of the beast in the same way that Fey does.

Congratulations. Today is your lucky day. Pleased to meet you. ;-o)

Hi there its been 10 years

I thought the Show was Fantastic. I think one of the problems was showing us the rehearsals of the the skits instead of just the skits. Matt is quoted in the second show "Comedy is less funny the second time around." Example: they gave away too much of the G&S song, so it was fun, but not nearly as funny as it could have been if we didn't know it was coming. How ever I truly wish it was still on.

David S what the hell are you talking about? Everyone with a brain and knows about how television works knows this show, which was on track to become the greatest tv show ever created, was cancelled because of the famous Writers Strike, so NBC pawned it off as not being able to afford both 30 Rock and Studio 60.

Why are all the fans of this show so damn pretentious 😂 “It was too intelligent for the network”. Still it’s cool to see Sarah Paulson and Matthew Perry in the same show.

The stakes of a sketch show aren't that high, something similar shows based on hospitals or the presidency have covered. That's why it never caught on.

well just fuck it from the near danger of sonic x till the season 4 rumors existed suddenly 5 years later over that fucking shit from if wwe should have itself bought once to qubo for something else besides this and that god damn though

I stuck with this show from start to finish, mostly because of the cast. Unlike most viewers, I found it just OK. The biggest problem was the “comedy” skits were not funny - so bad that they took me right out of the show. If you’re trying to convincingly show the behind-the-scenes goings-on of a supposedly hilarious TV show, the bits you show from this program had better at least not be cringeworthy.

Feels like this show took itself way too seriously. Never heard of it, watched tv like crazy during this time so maybe I just forgot, but it seems like it could have been good if they injected actual comedy into it

It premiered around the same time as 30 Rock and unfortunately Sorkin tried to write every episode himself and it just didn’t work. It’s too bad because there were some really good episodes and the cast was stacked.

yea this show was outdated as soon as it aired, take note from 30 rock that's how you make a creative/unique show

You are right i've recently watch this show and while it's good some of the actors and characters are so bland, I know Amanda is friends with Sarah she actually helped Sarah get the role of Harriet, but Amanda's character coul have been erased and no one would have noticed, I don't really andurstand how Amanda was the most successful one earlier in their careers when Sarah is much more talented, so yeah I too see why the show failed one of their mistakes was giving too much importance to characters that did nothing to help the show.
