sports night; the complete series (1998)

Aaron Sorkin's critically acclaimed sitcom ran on ABC for two seasons, offering a witty behind-the-scenes look at the production of a TV show. Starring Peter Krause and Josh Charles as the show's anchors, the Emmy award-winning "Sports Night" is not at all about sports, but about the show's frantic, often quirky characters and the tough moral and ethical questions they face.

ireviewnetflix.com rating: **** (Actually 3.5) The entire cast is incredible and was what made this show so remarkable and so strong. Combine the stellar cast with the great Aaron Sorkin magic and you have a hit. The show is very good, but I think it would have been better as a straight dramedy and would have been much better without the horrible laugh track. Stupid ABC network executives.
