We finally reach the GRAND FINALE of our STUDIO 60 ON THE SUNSET STRIP odyssey, arriving at Episode 22, "What Kind of Day Has It Been"... but we're left with more questions than answers. Folks... what ever happened to the Macau Deal???

I'm legitimately sad this is the end..

Kenny Hedges

Not-William-Fichtner was very funny in Party Down.

Ambrose Honeysuckle

I am excited (but also a bit sad!) to listen to this final episode. I do, however, have one last piece of 'Studio 60' lore to share. The boys have brought up the bizarre Juliette Lewis segment multiple times, and courtesy of an at-the-time interview with Sarah Paulson, we have the following insight – that impression may have been what landed her the coveted Harry role! As Paulson explained: “I don’t think I was high on the list. I think ultimately what happened is, as I was told, my final audition I was told you had to come with characters prepared, like skits in character. So I brought my bobby pins to do my Juliette Lewis impression, I brought my thing to do my this impression and I did them whereas I think the other girl that it came down to did not do that. So I think maybe I had that added element. But from what I’ve understood and who knows if it’s been embellished or memory is a funny thing, but I was told that it was Christine Lahti who was saying to Tommy, this is [her].” Paulson and Lewis both acted in 'The Other Sister' in 1999, so perhaps that is why she had the impression up her sleeve? In the end, though, incredibly telling that it may have been the thing that convinced Sorkin to cast Paulson (and consistent with the great man having zero comedic instincts). https://collider.com/sarah-paulson-interview-studio-60-on-the-sunset-strip-game-change/

Macauheads in shambles.

Steven Wilsher

Adorno was so nearly right: after Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip poetry is barbarism.

Josh Bayer

both DL Hughely and Matthew Perry had spectacular apocalyptic flamethrower media cycles the last month in sync with Michaela and Us reaching the studio 60 conclusion. Well done everyone

Chris Burke

Steven Weber was cast as William Fichtner’s younger brother on the sitcom Mom (also starring Sorkin regular Alison Janney), so you are far from the first to notice their resemblance. They know they look alike.

felicity shagwell

heh, i remember back to when i was just a kid riding the bus to school listening to the first ever michael and us Studio Sucky episode. crazy to think it's coming to a close

Would it be cruel to nominate The Other Sister as a delegate's pick to make them watch?

Dan Port

In 20 years, the next wave of M&U podcasters will be discussing Sportsnight. What a day that will be.

Tom

The Newsroom, let’s GOOOOOOOOOO Seriously, this was a hilarious series. (Studio Sucky, not Studio 60.) I hope Luke enjoys his week off the grid after turning in this capstone to a whole M&U era.

Matthew

Whatever happened to the insult “candyass”. Used to be everywhere in turn of the century America.

Waited all episode to hear if the deal fell through

Kranky

With a goddamn marvelesque stinger at the end. Well done boys

Eric Cline

Goodbye S. 60, though I never watched you at all. / These Canucks' snarky recaps still left me appalled. / But lay off not-Bill Fichtner, he was great on WINGS. / It was Mel Brooks's DRACULA that was his truly awful thing.

Haven’t listened yet, is it Luke off the grid week already? The years they go by fast

Blank

President Gore lives on my street

The army officer stationed at Studio 60 is an Epic Anti-Bush Lib…he says that he’s not allowed to contradict the commander-in-chief right before he adds “but we both know where the war is being lost”—that is, the White House. We must wait for John Kerry to report for duty.

Peter Jenkins

Not so easy is it boys

Jack Wilson

Masterful sorkinite cold open! Really captured his snark combined with the signature faux sincerity. Bravo fellas!

Kainien Morel

I'm glad you guys had so much fun with this, but I have to say... I'm really not going to miss this. Turns out a terrible Sorkin series is still terrible after all these podcasts, and all that labor. Also, "Take off, to the Great White North.."

What does it mean? Your ass is sweet and sexy, and I like it. But that also makes you unmanly? I’m gay but it’s your fault?

Podcast subscriber 78

From what I recall, the Newsroom is just about some British woman telling an angry news guy that the country “is having a big conversation right now, and we could be the ones to frame that conversation.” And a guy in a skinny tie who wants to date some meek blonde woman, and Jane Fonda’s son being an executive trying to shut down the Newsroom. Excited to see what you guys say about it.

Evan Hiltunen

Not sure if anyone registered matts pause when Jeanie asks if she can still sleep with him. Harriet answers first - like he’s wondering if maybe he’s alpha enough to have it both ways? I also haven’t watched so maybe there are visual cues that suggest otherwise.

Neoinean21

Absolutely loved this series! Y'all are amazing. Can't wait for The Newsroom.

Geri Danton

Probably wouldn't lend itself to a whole series but seems like it would feel incomplete if you didn't talk about Sports Night in some capacity after all this

Michael Rowland

Stop shaking the tyrant's bloody robe in my face, or I will believe that you wish to put Rome in chains.

LexiBaybeee

Will, you had me going with the Who’s On First bit 😂

Mark K

Sorry Will but Luke has better acting chops

Eric The Bed Humper.

You guys need to do a episode on the "ruling class" documentary

Konstantin Genin

I'm beginning to think you guys don't like Aaron Sorkin very much.

Ciaran Colley

Not gonna lie folks, when I heard the very last 20 seconds, I stood up and saluted. I hope my fellow passengers will understand in time.

Tyler Sutherland

i fucking love the skit you started this episode with. this series you left everything out on the field, you held nothing back. love my canadian lads.

it's mostly will's cadence when he gets big, chunky dialogues. luke is better at emoting long-term, but will definitely can sell back-and-forth, short dialogue bursts.

relaxok

This was a flat out masterpiece

howie

There's a season 2 episode of the Newsroom discussing Occupy Wall Street that's pure, unfentanyled Sorkin. A (female, naturally) protestor interviewed by Will is s promptly steamrolled about the horizontalist organizing structure, essentially lambasted for not transforming the protests into a DNC fundraiser. Needless to say, she has no rationale behind this method, because if it doesn't make sense to Aaron Sorkin, there's no way the lady activist has the brain to contemplate, let alone explain, such a tactic. In the end, he enrolls in the class she teaches at, which seems more like he's making up for her public dragging by gracing the clueless students-protestors with his informed presence than the idea he could learn something from her. It's one of Aaron's best simultaneous female-leftist belittlings.

murt pie

Oh god please don't do the entire run of the Newsroom.

Nate

Legit yelled “Let’s fucking gooooo” at the teaser at the end of the episode. This series has made me want to hate-watch the West Wing
