Sorkin knew that Studio 60 was ending and that had a proper resolution. Each season of The Newsroom ended with what could have been a series finale. This won't leave us hanging.

That "end of the world interview" was great, and really highlighted how our culture cannot accept a no-win scenario.

With Will getting subpoenaed, I'm sure we're gonna get some major grandstanding from him.

My only real issue so far is that, while the whole show has been about actual news stories, it seems like they're using this not-actual story about the made up country to be the story that brings ACN out of it's problems. Feels cheap.

THE NEWSROOM is suddenly turning into THE OFFICE with all these guest stars.

Last year's main storyline (Genoa) was also made-up.
