Negative Positive
Title: a stepping stone perhaps, but....
Review: I bought Sports Night for 2 reasons. I was already a fan of the West Wing and Sports Night had lots of positive press. Bad move! The press is greatly overrated, with the comedy torturously predictable. It does try hard to blend drama with comedy and it covers some interesting topics and themes, but ultimately the drama is sabotaged by the less than average comedy. Whether it is the setting or simply Sorkin has improved, but the final product doesn't compare with the West Wing. It now sits half watched under my TV......DISAPPOINTED
