Aaron Sorkin knows how to get me

Last night, while most of you were watching Grey's, I was watching last Monday's episode of Studio 60 on the NBC website (curse my lack of television reception, but don't worry the Comcast guy comes on Sunday). I haven't seen all the episodes that have aired, I caught the first couple and then this last one, but I like it. I get that same feeling that I would get from watching the earlier seasons of the West Wing, which I can't come up with anyway to describe besides fuzzy. I always assumed it was the fact that Sorkin's lovable characters pretty much breathed liberal politics that got me to watch the West Wing. Apparently not. It seems that Aaron Sorkin just really knows what does it for me. Impressively he makes the production of a weekly sketch comedy show seem meaningful. And since I don't even ever watch shows like SNL, I'm really surprised that I care, but I do. But maybe it is the pervasive liberalism that has caught me again. With issues like free speech (especially when it mocks the Religious Right), and the pursuit of intelligent television central to the plot, I'm almost as emotionally involved as when it was foreign policy and welfare reform I was watching about. Oh and also who knew you could fall in love with someone as unattractive as Bradley Whitford twice? So what I'm really trying to say is "don't bother calling Mondays, I'm no longer available".
