Series 1, episode 1

Written by Aaron Sorkin

Directed by Thomas Schlamme

Originally Aired On: Monday, 18 September 2006

Episode Rating: 5 star rating

Emmy Award-winning writer/producer Aaron Sorkin tackles the contentious, rarely-seen world of network television, along with acclaimed director/producer Thomas Schlamme and a phenomenal ensemble cast. Behind the humour of producing the popular late-night comedy sketch show Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip is a world of backstage politics and romances, and a very delicate balance between creative talent, on-air personalities and network executives.
