HBO’s The Newsroom is fantastic. Shows like it are the reason we have TV in the first place. But what exactly makes the show such a phenomenon? At Sunday’s Paley Center for Media evening celebrating the series, I spoke with several members of the cast to find out what they think makes it great – and learned a few things about what’s coming up in Season 2.
For John Gallagher, Jr., who plays the ever so endearing Jim Harper, he knew the show was something special “When I read the pilot. I’d been an Aaron Sorkin fan for years but I thought when I read the first episode, I thought he’d completely outdone himself,” he explained. “It had all the things that you love about Aaron Sorkin, but with some new twists that seemed a little bit more aware, like he was pushing things forward. I thought if I’m responding to this the way that I am and it hasn’t even been shot yet, I can only imagine how magical it’s going to be when it all comes together.”

I checked it out a couple of months ago and liked it. It's pretty much a shipper's nightmare though.
