Sorkin brings the same intensity and political sensibilities to the story. Read full review

"Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip" lives up to the advance hype, easily qualifying as one of the best new broadcast series of the fall. Read full review

Charlie McCollum

The characters are intelligent, complex people you quickly care about, even if -- this being a show about television -- they can be egotistical and self-centered. Read full review

Linda Stasi

Don't believe the hype. "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip" is not the best new show of the fall season. It's a pretty darned good one, but not the best one. Read full review

Rob Owen

Like his previous series, "Studio 60" features intelligent, quickly spoken dialogue, smart arguments and terrific performances (Perry and Whitford have instant chemistry as longtime co-workers), and it's not a bad show by any means, but it doesn't soar to the heights "West Wing" did, even in its earliest episodes.

Nancy DeWolf Smith

Here's hoping that the strong whiff of sanctimony in the pilot of "Studio 60" is blown away by fresh air in future episodes. Read full review

Robert Abele

Really, I just wish it were funny. Not walking-banter funny, or look-what-I-know funny, but funny funny. Even a little bit. Read full review

I love this show. And I wish everyone would give it a chance before saying they should pull it.
