Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip

It's officially canceled. Once the sets have been demolished (and the sets have, in fact, been demolished), you don't come back.

I'll happily watch the last few. Shame it didn't catch on with a wider audience.

It's bizarre to me, all the negative editorial press about it. I quite enjoy the show and looked forward to it every week.

Me too, I really enjoyed the show and had my Monday nights set up for Heroes and Studio 60
 

I enjoyed it for the most part. Last nights episode was a little too much filler or me. I know they wern't planning on it being canceled when they shot it, but now with only 6 episodes left I was disapointed that this was one of the last 6..
 


The show seemed to be doomed by unreasonable expectations almost from the beginning. People kept drawing comparisons between it and The West Wing, which practically set it up to fail, since this show couldn't hope to follow in the same thematic footsteps. The inner workings of Hollywood don't present the same challenges as being President of the United States does, and doesn't present issues that concern everyone the way a political show does. Likewise, the focus on a more character-driven elements (especially by putting a couple with a turbulent romance up front) shocked people who were expecting it to be as plot-driven as its predecessor.

Studio 60 is a good show, but like a rookie comedian trying to perform a follow-up act after a big name, it just had the deck stacked against it.

It wasn't filler it was a funny episode. The season long plots on this show are not all that important.
I think it was fairly funny filler, but still filler in my opinion. The plot doesn't have to always be there. . . but three of our main characters were totally absent. No Matt, no Danny, no Jordan. Not even a mention of Jordan.

There was negative editorial press? Everything I read from critics and entertainment 'reporters' was very positive... (It was just not enough of the audience that tuned in.)

That was kind of where I was trying to go. Without the main characters it seems like filler to me.
