I was going to cut HBO from our cable subscription as I had not seen anything worth watching in a couple years. This evening I caught the rerun of episode 1 of The Newsroom. I can not applaude it enough. Finally a television program worth our time again.

Arron Sorkin and company had better make room in their schedule and add shelf space for the awards they will surely garner.
I hope the writers can continue to press on with riviting scripts. I salivate for more rants like in this clip:
