I've always love/hated The West Wing, and the other month I tried to watch Sports Night, because it's supposedly the other of his good ones, but oh man, I just thought it was (1) SO NINETIES (2) like proto-30 Rock except not at all funny (3) about dudes and their inspirations, and don't forget (4) proving to the world that pot is okay and I just couldn't handle more than three episodes. His effusive self-righteousness always bugged me, but at least in TWW it was about politics and society and I could at least pretend it was sort of important, but watching oh so smart ~sports media elites~ pontificate about marijuana was just too much for me. Maybe I didn't watch enough of it and it does get better, but overall I just felt like the show had totally aged itself into insignificance.
But I am not show bashing, just Aaron bashing. Hahaha.
