Anyone else watch Newsroom?

I was a sobbing mess at the last two episodes.  Full on ugly cry; my eyes are still a little swollen this morning. I even gasped and said, "Oh no!" when Charlie stopped.

I'm sad this show is being canceled.  I like Aaron Sorkin's style, even if people like to make fun of it.  With the right actors (and it does require good actors, IMHO), it is just so damn interesting to watch.  And he writes strong characters of all genders, with all sorts of different personalities and glorifies being smart.  I just love it.

  • I did!!   I am sad it's over too.  

    Sorkin is a blowhard dick at times, but I enjoyed Newsroom.  
  • I'm not sure how I feel about the rape storyline.  There's been a lot of blowback in the feminist movement and I completely understand why.  I also think that the storyline was appallingly honest about what happens and people's different reactions.  I wish Don had been on the female student's side; I believe someone like Don probably wouldn't be.
