Studio 60 Fodder

Studio 60: What's next for Sorkin and Hughley

Well, I meant to do this earlier and all in one big post. However, that's clearly not going to happen. Among other things, the former cast and crew have all found a lot of things to do in the wake of the end of Studio 60. And of course, there's the issue of your humble blogger having been raised on TV and just not having the attention span to do all this all at once. But mostly it's the all finding things to do.

Aaron Sorkin (Writer/Creator)
As previously reported here, Aaron's new play, The Farnsworth Invention opened recently on Broadway. Thankfully, the stagehands' strike just ended, so you can finally see it. I hear that ticket prices are pretty low right now, so it may be time to go!

He also wrote the screenplay for Charlie Wilson's War , which opens this Christmas Day. It stars Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts and is based on a true story.

D.L. Hughley (Simon Stiles)
D.L. is currently on tour.

He will be one of the co-hosts of Comedy Central's Last Laugh '07. Not sure how that works, what with the strike and all. I imagine there will be at least one Studio 60 joke. I hope so, anyway. It airs December 2 (tonight) at 10 p.m. And then repeats many times after that.

He will also host the 13th Annual Critics' Choice Awards on Jan. 7 on VH1. Notice that the picture they use of him is one of the promotional shots NBC took for Studio 60....
