Has there ever been a better TV pilot that than of 'Studio 60'? In my opinion no.
It sparkles. Aaron Sorkin's writing is fantastic throughout and every character we are introduced to makes an instant impression, with for me Amanda Peet and Steven Weber being two stand-outs.
Yes, it's preachy, but isn't all Sorkin work? The fact of the matter is he's an excellent storyteller.
It was very brave to start a new TV series with Matthew Perry and Bradley Whitford as leads and introduce them midway through, but once we've met them we love them. Their chemistry would be one of the few consistent plus points about the show.
I don't think 'Studio 60' ever came close to beating this episode, but what an episode it was.
