Cubs on Studio 60
I was watching last night's episode of Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip, Aaron Sorkin's new show, when I caught this on the wall behind a character:

Looks like me like it says this:
1969
1984
1989
1998
2003
Wait til' next year, Jeff :-(

Just thought that was interesting. Personally, I like Tony Almeida's Cubs mug on 24 better, but I'll take Cubs easter eggs wherever they come.

Hasn't that show been cancelled yet?

at the risk of offending someone
there is a "Black Irish" term, that the family depicted in the show would probably be called, I never heard this term before moving out east (I find it mildly offensive, and nobody in Ireland uses it), but it does exist
I have no idea if this is the reference in the show's title, I really hope not

From savestudio60.com
NBC earlier said the show would get a full season, so who knows. My guess is that the show eventully returns, unless they decide to burn off unaired shows over on Bravo.
I'll go back to CSI:NY and our Chicago boy in the lead, rather than anything that's aired on NBC in that time slot.

broken link
I'm one of the few who like Studio 60 WAY more than 30 Rock.
I really wanted to like 30 Rock and watched about 6 episodes, but then realized that I just didn't care about any of the characters. Certainly didn't care more than Tracy Morgan annoys me.

Essentially,
(I'd have to agree, but it's still better than most of the stuff on Prime Time)
He concludes that he 'awaits Sorkin's next effort.' Other stories I have found on-line are split on if the final 6 episodes will air. it's possible NBC might run them...'on-line.'
Unfortunately, last week's episode was watched by 6.4 million -- that's the worst rating EVER for Studio 60. That's about a share of 4.5. Those are UPN numbers......
That's less than HALF of the premiere audience, which was over 13-million. Guess America would rather watch that stiff, wooden, hands-in-his-belt actor, David Caruso over on CBS. (God, that is the worst-written of the CSI franchise.) I just don't see how this guy keeps getting jobs. He might be prime time's worst actor. And, given he's awful to deal with....man, he must know where all the bones are buried. (Or worse.)
However, some good news for Sorkin fans -- right here in San Diego: His debut of a play:
Here's more, hopefully THIS link works
The story isn't about KYLE Farnsworth, but Philo Farnsworth, who essentially invented television -- before the concept was hijacked by David Sarnoff and RCA.
