Somehow, mainstream media seems to think this show is "too didactic" - but that reeks to me of fear. Sorkin says exactly what people need to hear; it's time to step back, move forward, and let the professionals do their jobs. He's fantastic at portraying both sides to all key debates; I love the energy and direction of each season, so different and nuanced. A pleasure to watch.
Pure, unadulterated nostalgia, with a heavy sprinkling of satire. From the sets, to the dialogue, to the slew of big name actors - there isn't much here that wasn't perfectly placed. A tribute to both television in the 1970s, and massive arts egos. A touch too much at times - but that's all part of the appeal.
