Feb. 20th, 2007 12:09 amSam's Three Things About Studio 60.
1. Still totally uninterested in Harriet's crisis of conscience about anything, including making a film where a seventeen-year-old blows his brains out on camera. Also, Matt's total dependence on Harrie is not only disturbing but manipulative and straying into the territory where men start to think it's okay to hit women.
2. Between his geek-out over the guillotine and his exploding-baby prank, Cal is solid-gold MADE OF WIN, and we'll just forget the snake incident entirely, shall we?
3. Sigh. I'd like to do a normal three things and ignore 3a until you got there, but it's hard. Because as much as I'm going to miss not seeing Jordan and Danny hooking up and Tom wooing Lucy and Steven Webber chewing the scenery, I agree with the decision. The show's writing is in the tubes, the arcs are nonexistent or truncated halfway through their natural course, and Matt and Harrie aren't interesting. It's just a shame that if it had to be cancelled, it couldn't have had a full and thorough quality run first.
3a. From Wikipedia: As of February 17, 2007, Studio 60 had been pulled from NBC's lineup to be replaced with The Black Donnellys starting February 26. No date has been set for its return.
Well, now I can start watching Heroes like my coworkers keep saying I should.
