Kait: Kaitlyn, you can't get excited about this yet.
Becca: What?
Kait: The pilot script for Aaron Sorkin's new show was leaked and I can't let myself get excited about it yet.
Becca: Oh.
Kait: It's the show I've been telling him to make for five years!
Becca: And by "telling him" you mean "saying it out loud in your living room," right?
Kait: And on the internet.
Becca: I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing any direct channels you have to Aaron Sorkin. Like the red phone in the closet. Matt Smith has a lot to say to Aaron Sorkin! And he's just like, "Jesus Christ, you talk more than my fucking characters!"
Kait: It's a newsroom show! And I've been saying since the start that most if not all of the problems with Studio 60 could have been avoided if he'd made a political show instead of a fucking sketch comedy show. He's trying to be timely and political and he's writing Saturday Night Live badly. It should have been like, Aaron Sorkin's take on Andy Coop's show! And this one is!
Becca: But without Anderson Cooper.
Kait: But with Aaron Sorkin characters and Aaron Sorkin writing!
Becca: I don't think that makes up for it.
Kait: I think it does!
