ALL IT TAKES ARE TWO LITTLE WORDS: Was it just me, or was tonight's Studio 60 an apology from Sorkin for "Isaac and Ishmael" (coupled with a variation on "The Apology")? Writers attempt to make an immediate response to 9/11, which seems like a good idea at the time, and then gets lambasted throughout the media for being ineffective in getting there. Seems that Sorkin has now realized that distance helps in shedding some light, and this one wound up being pretty good. (Not quite as good as the Brothers and Sisters flashback from earlier this season, but nice work all around, especially from Steven Weber.) Seems like the show finally has found its rhythm in these final few episodes, making both the early slog and the cancellation even sadder.
