The West Wing creator Aaron Sorkin has a new project on the go, and now it's
been confirmed that we'll be seeing it in the UK on Channel 4.
Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip is a drama (no doubt with some extremely funny
lines) about a late-night comedy show. Much like the West Wing, rather than
focussing on what happens in front of the cameras it'll be about the
behind-the-scenes plotting, writing and almost certainly arguing.
The show stars Bradley Whitford ('Josh' from the West Wing) and Matthew Perry
('Chandler' from Friends) as two hot-shot writers brought in to bring the show
back up to speed. Expect lots of really fast dialogue.
Another new Channel 4 show coming over from the US is The Class, a new sitcom
by Friends co-creator David Crane.
