The penultimate episode of Studio 60 aired last night. It's still a fine show in and of itself. Throughout the season, I was really hoping for more of the struggle to air Quality TV, but the show seems to really enmesh itself in huge arcs not related to that. I mean, counting next week's finale, the show will have been stuck on the SAME night for five episodes. I feel like I'm watching 24. Granted, there are some flashbacks to when Matt and Danny got fired the first time, but they could easily all be compressed into a single episode. The rest is just melodramamine. I'm fine with it being cancelled now.
in other tv news from the last week. . .
Jewel Staite will be a regular on Atlantis next season. Yay!
There's a new show on BBC1 called "Jekyll." Impressive first episode. Heck, impressive first 4 minutes!
We got some answers to Torchwood puzzlers from last week's Doctor Who. Including some of my own gripes with the change in Jack's character. So that was fun. Boo, of course, to rumors of Davies closing down the show after next season.
