Another Studio 60 post

I'm a college graduate, lifelong student. I find the show so far has been a perfect balance between stimulation and escapism. I like intelligent writing, good acting, great characterizations and happy endings, most of the time. Occasionally I don't mind watching something brilliant that bums me out. Most of what I find on TV, especially the so-called "reality shows"- is beyond depressing. It's pretty bad when CNN and MSNBC are more effective as white noise than "The Apprentice" and its ilk. I watch Studio 60, Medium, ER, and Monk. And Conan, and Dave. (Not Too stuffy- is it?..) Still watch SNL, though I have absolutely no idea why- it's like you just know a bus is gonna show up eventually- and you keep standing there at the stop, thinking "just 5 more minutes.." Hours later- still no bus. Months, maybe years later- "hey- this show still sucks!" But every great once in a while- it has its moments. Maybe not in a row, but two or three, here and there... Can't remember the last one- but it was such a surprise I nearly projectile-laughed my lungs out through my mouth.
