I'll be voting Republican for all except Trump. I'd vote Libertarian but that is a wasted vote. I would vote Democrat, but they are hard set on anti gun legislation and I don't agree with some of their fiscal policies. I support abortions and a lot of the rest of the things they are for, but they lose me on gun laws and fiscal policy.

My views really match those of they guy on The Newsroom, the one Jeff Daniels played.

Jeff Daniels is the reason I watch "The Newsroom" because I wouldn't watch it for it's crappily written and tacked on Love Stories.

upvote for Jeff Daniels
downvote for over the top mischaracterization of tea party

that is all.

Hey, I'm all for the discussion, but now, after watching the first episode, I have to call foul on the "old man" criticisms. Or at least clarify why I think that shouldn't matter if we're talking about the story of the show.

The character is starting to become a crotchety old man. And it seems like the show is about him and his team trying to put on a good news show despite where we are with our media and him having a temper.

I would agree that there were some problems with the first episode. Parts of the script and acting were over the top. The documentary style is annoying, with the sudden zoom-focusing like they do in "the office" and "Parks and Rec". But, I think it has the potential to be on par with West Wing or Sports Night. It just needs to find it's stride.

I liked how they referenced real events that were all occurring in 2010 to frame the action. And, even if they were overly cheesy at times, bother Jeff Daniels and the chick (sorry, not looking her name up) are good. Bits of their personality and dialogue remind me of older, classic Sorkin.

All of those are good things and it seems to me a lot more promising than "Studio 60" was. Studio 60 was a pile of crap from the first episode. I really tried to like that one and it was just too melodramatic.

Jeff Daniels looks like Jim Henson and Gandolfini looks like Rob Reiner, or, if you're so inclined, Anthony Spinelli.

Yesterday, I missed Irma Thomas' birthday. Today is the birthday of Tony Iommi, John Frankenheimer, Nicolaus Copernicus, Smokey Robinson, Karen Silkwood, Jeff Daniels, Falco, and closer to our generation, Justine Bateman. My queue is full, so you should do something about these 2/19 births.

And here's the list of the scenes;

Sir Patrick Stewart (Star Trek: The Next Generation - "Hide and Q" - 1987)
Jeff Daniels (Gettysburg - 1993)
Iain Glen (Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead - 1990)
Jennifer Saunders and Dawn French (Coraline - 2009)
Frank Grimes (Britannia Hospital - 1982)
Robin Atkin Downes (Babylon 5 - "The Paragon of Animals" - 1998)
Richard E. Grant (Withnail & I - 1986)
Mitchell Ryan (Grosse Pointe Blank)
