EDITION: U.S.
needs a sketch writer
Was it me, or did Studio 60's "cold open" kinda suck?

Can someone tell Aaron Sorkin that he's not a sketch writer? Because if he's going to do a series about a sketch show being rescued from the dead he might want to make the sketches that show puts on... you know... what word am I looking for? Oh yeah! "Good."Don't get me wrong, I really liked last night's episode of Studio 60; Sorkin needs to lay off the sanctimony, but that can be said of all his shows. However, the sketch that he wrote for the "cold open," the one that the entire episode led up to, was pretty lame.
