“We're not sure which sister-pimping show he was talking about?”That’s a direct quote from
Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip - the new show from Aaron Sorkin and Tommy Schlamme starring Matthew Perry, Bradley Whitford and Amanda Peet. The pilot for which airs tonight at 10 PM on NBC.
I’ve already watched it and got a real kick out of it. I’m not going to praise it as the second coming like most folks out there. The episode is mostly setup and some characters are glossed over. Some aren’t even introduced yet, but Sorkin has a lot of hieracrchy to establish without the benefit of years of Social Studies classes as he did with the
West Wing. However, the acting especially from Peet and Perry is just top notch.
If you need additional endorsement..
Further proving he is yin to my yang, Bronc refuses to watch the show at all (despite his fondness for Sorkin and Schlamme’s
Sport Night). Not only is it on opposite Monday Night Football on the East Coast, but it’s created by pinko liberals. Bronc also refuses to watch Weeds since it promotes the marijuana.
The word
“bronc” actually means
“to fuck things up.” So, don’t be a Bronc and watch the damn show. Unless you’re a Pittsburgh Steelers fan.
