Yeah, but that's not exactly saying much.
I just don't think the sketches on Studio 60 are funny, either. Admittedly, sketch is really, really hard to do well, but if the show's going to be about a sketch show that's finding its mojo again, they need the sketches to reflect that (or just not show them at all, which could work).
Again, my problem is that I don't think the premise works as an hour drama.
But yes, there are much crappier things on TV that do really well, and Studio 60 is still a lot better than most of what's out there. It just wasn't able to hold me.
Though I think I still have the most recent 10 episodes on my DVR. I just haven't watched them.
