Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip

[Del Lardo]

Started last Thursday on More4 and tbh I thought it had potential but wouldn't be up to much. I've just watched the first 2 episodes and my left hand is slaping my right hand to stop me heading off to my favorite Torrent site to download the whole series.

Emmy Award-winning wirter/producer Arron Sorkin's (The West Wing) new comedy drama starring Matthew Perry tackles the world of TV

Matthew Perry does play a Chandleresque charater with a lot of one liners but what fantastic one liners they are. This show proves that the guy really can act.

First impressions.
The savage attack on American TV that opens the series certainly hits home and engaged me fantastically well.
The banter/relationship between the writer and producer are as real as any real life friendship I have seen.
Very good writing.
Reflects what is happening in TV at the moment (I won't say any more as it will give the game away).


If you don't have the oportunity to catch up with this series with 4oD/torrents, and to be honest you don't want to join at episode 3, keep an eye out for it on Channel 4 in the future. It will be a Tuesday/Thursday 9pm show that deserves to pull in a big audience.
