Considering that I missed the entire Sopranos, I doubt I'll get to watch this.

Show has been improving, but Sorkin could still cut about 20% of the dialog. There is just too much talking going on, and it is usually rapid fire, too.
Maybe he could cut all the dialog he's already used on other shows and movies. Of course if he did that, people would think they were watching "The Artist".

The show is about dialog rgG, the rest is just backdrop and plot leading to dialog set-up.

Oh, I know, and I like it, but sometimes I feel rather tired after having to listen so intently for the entire show, and with it being on HBO, there are no commercials, so no breaks at all.

It's really about Sorkin's ego, ultimately.

It's justified.
