Studio 60 - Worth a Watch...

Finally got to see an episode of Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip, and quite enjoyed it. Usually I’m at work, so I might have to start recording this. Either that, or pick up the inevitable DVD. Had some pretty funny moments, and the quick dialogue was great. I thought I might wind up just seeing a version of Perry’s Chandler from Friends, but he actually pulled off another character. Unique to see that so fast after the end of Friends. Usually these sitcom stars can’t break free of the mold – see Seinfeld alumni. I liked Timothy Busfield as the cool headed director and Whitford, Peet, and the other cast members were firing right along well too, so this show might stick around. That’s one thing about new series. One, I work nights with no Tivo, so recording everything I would like to see would be a hassle. Two, most series get cancelled so fast it’s not worth the time to get into them. Unless a show has been on at least a year and renewed, what’s the point of investing in it? Thank goodness for DVD…
