From our archives (yeah, I wrote it. Shut up.)
NBC’s fall schedule: Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. The premise: a creative team is hired to save a live sketch-comedy show that just happens to resemble NBC’s Saturday Night Live.
Tina Fey, co-head writer for SNL, is working on a similar project starring her and Alec Baldwin, but I give Studio 60 better odds of sticking.
I’ll have you know that half of Studio 60’s 22 episodes were watchable. I’m also a big Aaron Sorkin fanboy, and while I still have a Tinacrush, I was betting on the money of Matthew Perry coming off of Friends and a rotating cast of guest stars.
Oops. Below, Tina Fey receives an award while she and New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg laugh at this prediction.
