From that EW article on SportsNight, sounds like Josh Charles is not a fan of Aaron Sorkin's management style. - Will Hunting Nov 6, 08:55 2
- I love that 11M viewers per week was a dismal rating back then. Honestly, I remember that era, but that still feels so foreign. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Nov 6, 09:38

    - The good thing about Emma Stone is that if you have to take her in for warranty work they'll send you home with a loaner Jane Levy. -- nm - Ender Nov 6, 09:46
