Just an FYI:

Chris Hadfield, Canuck and GOAT twitterer from space, is returning to Earth in the next 45 minutes. He has spent the last 5 months tweeting awesome photos from the ISS and great videos of science experiments in space.

newsroom is terrible unless you're both a liberal and really really into stuff that reaffirms your political beliefs. so if you read liberal blogs or something you'll probably love it.

Managed to get $300 a seat for my Caps tickets tonight. Best decision I've made in a while.

lol cmonson

there's certainly plenty of preaching but it's far from terrible

Did you stop watching at some point? I seem to remember it dipping quite a bit after the first episode, before improving a bunch in the 2nd half of the season.

I roll my eyes plenty but it's pretty unique and there are a bunch of quality elements that I appreciate.

Newsroom: I'll put my semi-political views in spoilers so as not to completely pollute this thread:

Newsroom only seems mega liberal because the news media in the USA is such a joke.

i gave up after the 4th or 5th episode. i usually don't keep watching shows i think are terrible.

it's sorkin at his least bearable. so i guess i should amend my previous statement. it's also possible you'll like it if you're an enormous sorkin fanboy and also a liberal.
