move on

to the newsroom Witcher it's not the same category why I'm

welcome to the dog yeah in any way

but it's an interesting show jack we have a a lot that are all the Giro look

thank you for Ben maggots jack on the current show last year we we did that

highest-rated segments of the current room I

when we at we talk about newsroom because for whatever reason even the

last season was one of the worst seasons have

love dramatic television I've ever seen in my entire life we couldn't

stop watching it there was something there was something glorious

mixed in with all this just insufferable

narcissism comments about the musical numbers that's right with you

so here we so here we are now at season 2

and I mean will turn it over first although Alonso but as absolute first

thing we do let's kill all the lawyers

obviously that's room 106 arm II

good media obviously on john looked it up whatever

um by I thought that this

was versatile markedly different

and better much better

but I fear just enough better to make this a waste of time

I a lot it's really a weird like before and I mean the season 1 I've vacillated

between moment I thought were just brilliant and ones that I just would

kinda roll my eyes at

and this was an almost all are rolling up azaleas everywhere for this

last night's episode would have been the one to make me go up camp I'm out

I'm really yeah I just I don't know why because it's sorta dwelled on all the

things that I care the least about like that love triangle Business which I

never have found interesting are well

by the World Trade no one in america cares about that I

everyone in America hates all those people yeah all the actors involved

there are interested at this point

yeah you know theirs and it was one of those episode lotsa

dudgeon you know lots of my principles a movable good just here

Agni II really very clean I thought there was less than that

yeah because but here we're seeing will the care more about

how much the audience loves him and he feels burned today

that he's lost a part of the answer seen American Taliban right any seems less

aggressive but that was

that and that was a big problem for me I've heard American tell been thrown

around

fairly willy nilly on the left and nobody cared and on this show they make

out like who he said this

taboo phrase and you know repercussions going all the way to the counter

levying this like after a full episode iv: laying it out saying you're the

American Taliban or was it

a blogger something we savored it also means that you don't really hear it from

brian williams also I'm I'm saying those moment but I mean I purpose heard on

MSNBC let's say which is for the anodyne love this show

that I've that network and in hand and no nobody stop the presses like nobody

cared it was just a

phrase I was afraid the other night and this show they make it out to be

you know I was talking to %uh to Brett who said that it was the same thing on

studio 60 where

you they made a big deal about this sketch that was gonna get all the

trouble and i wanna been called crazy Christians

right you know I think studio 60 on the Sunset Strip the first

I'll horrible unwatchable were show history television and I watched all 22

episodes

yeah look be that that's what makes this show little interest email because

and in a lil and unrealistic at the same time in a good way in a bad way here's

what I mean by that

but on MSNBC back like win

in the day they would never imagine saying that either

okay now they get to a point where they would say but in this show it's not

MSNBC and CNN NBC

for CNN right you see what I'm saying I graphics packages CNN

ok expression that i rly of Vienna a right hand so

it's supposed to be a neutral source and that's why how they all act executives

actor reporters acted center-right

and so yeah I am with Ben a Brian Williams or anderson cooper et cetera

merican Taliban

there would have been outrage CNN would have been banned from the browser

quite but they it's also unrealistic and that's the whole point the show but

because Anderson Cooper Brian Williams would never say that

in a million years cuz in fact none of them have the principal

will mcevoy and that's why the show is in some ways

both maddening cuz that's never going to happen I V view

and at the same time great because hey that's what we want to happen I mean you

guys are the pros to you

you can parse this better than i do as far as it now to see the inside baseball

the show

my takeaway from season one was this was the lost season have Countdown with

Keith Olbermann

II he was much more baby shoot from the hip saying controversial stuff

injecting himself in his opinions into things so

will mcevoy saying American Taliban to me was well if Overman said American

Taliban

nobody would blink because that's the sort of thing he would say all the time

weird what what what you're right about over men and and there are many perhaps

even O'Brien self who thinks the world mcevoy persona was lifted from over man

there is unquestionably a great deal with Keith Olbermann

I in that but it is as if Keith Olbermann

were at CBS yeah exactly

its unquestionable base on over me but whatever you write fiction you take

something that might might happen in your personal experience

and then you change in and change and change it and change it so

its loosely based on him probably about 30 percent remains

a seventy percent is a different context that he rode into it I just wanna feel

the shock

in the moment I love this thing in the context the show so that I

to the repercussions make sense and over like becoming an Oreo is gonna lose out

on some that shock so long as there's there covering stories there two years

old by the time we watch as I think

but also one of the reasons I like that interesting device knows it seems is

always active on it yeah exactly although some people say that that's why

certain comes office so

is so the full of himself because yeah of course everybody is in great

hindsight two years after the story broke

what I like about the reaction to the American Taliban comment is

wanna my problems with the will mcevoy character in the first season is

he's just to confident too perfect into invincible like

he always has that become back nothing bad happens except for drinks being

thrown in his face

but now is actually facing consequences for what he did and you can see it

affecting

the way he's reacting to stories later on I think that makes the character much

more interesting

yeah I agree he became heey he showed some

some authentic vulnerability the vulnerability showed last year was the

nonsense with the love life where you're like

she's you lover she loves you she really three years ago she want you back

but don't like to get over record or donor go out with other girls but stop

talking about this this is

and seeking a religious seminary disagree with Alonso again

because hear that at least they took the Mackenzie love thing

out at least for the purpose of this episode it was national see finger

which seems so unrealistic not only for will McElroy but for Mackenzie sources

top competent awesome executive producer should be bumbling instrument over stuff

in

so at least the first episode in now that's how I felt like I was fifty

percent when

and I like that they IIIi like think that they showed her being super

competent in the mail creation the show all I have to say watching that moment I

thought

I'm love this when Holly 125 years ago in broadcasting truly

this could have all that never happens right by you I have a tape this offer

whatever

when there's so many things that are wonderfully unrealistic about this rain

like if he caught that they had the wrong thing with the I don't know what

CNN this

allies agree with you on that they were they'd fix it they'd me it personal

maybe not right now but there was a long era where they unquestionably what

effect that they would never last but said the French stories are charge the

one they haven't charged in the death

they would switch that and I love that that was a

I wish they'd play with the voice more cuz I wanna sounded different but I

loved

her attempting to her attempting to fix it and I think that

that was as dramatic ash a moment

I've reaction to criticism from a season

that our producer talk like I've made these women

bumbling yes and a joke and so I were right off the bat I'm gonna show you

low per capita they are greatest cruiser you've ever seen you

that was the second half were there when the the board goes down unnecessary and

them executive producer knows how to solve a technical issue it's incredibly

come we know it is what it is all the technical issues she came up with a

solution that use the remaining resources they still had one camera

angle in graphics

hard wired directly to the monitor like it's not that she knows how to fix the

tech problems that she fully understands what they're capable doing with roads

may be over you're still a dork

I go through a window when the doors close thats
