One of Aaron Sorkin's best TV show yet. It's a shame we only get 3 seasons. Not to many show series can match The Newsroom. Jeff Daniels and cast are fantastic.

I watched this series a number of years ago and had a vague recollection of the first (how great was that?), third (how the Republican Party lost its way), and tenth (holding the country hostage to the national debt) episodes. Given today's political climate I thought it worthwhile to watch again. And so I am. Interesting isn't it that nothing much has changed, in fact things have gotten worse, for the Republican Party.

Good enough but preachy and heavy handed at times. While Sorkin can write, the dialog is unbelievable at times.
