The Newsroom

I am... kinda super mega totally in love with Aaron Sorkin's new HBO series The Newsroom. Both with the show and with like half the characters. I really fucking missed Sorkin. Definitely one of my absolute favorite television writers of all time.

I saw a clip and really liked it. But it's on HBO. So I guess I'll see it in about 18-24 months, when Netflix gets it.
