And that's it. No more. The series is over. Aaron Sorkin is dead, long live Aaron Sorkin!
Series three brings things to a close, by changing the way the series works, by being different, and by tying back to the first episode all over again. Which makes me want to go and watch series one again... which I have on BluRay, with commentaries and such.
The series was just so brilliant. People have raved about Aaron Sorkin's writing before, and it is good... and there are a lot of monologues (as one of the characters points out!), and while he does tell you definitely what he thinks, he gives the audience a chance to think as well.
And then there are the character relationships. So much back and forth and who ends up with who... It is both simple and complicated and realistic. (And I do know that's three somethings.)
I really need to watch West Wing, which I also have on disc (DVD not BluRay).
Fantastic series, and I look forward to whatever he comes up with next.
