My new theory is that Aaron Sorkin is deliberately making Studio 60 as unlike a real sketch comedy as possible.

Sting and his lute? Granted, it's topical - the album just came out, or is coming out - but Dowland? Dowland? On a comedy show (or at least a comedy show soundcheck)? Not to mention that I seriously object to being forced to listen to Sting butcher those poor lute songs. Bad enough that I was forced to experience the badness at work.

But I will forgive him. Because I love the show.

Are they pulling in viewers? I don't want to get attached to a show that's going to get the hook!

Yeah, I'm not sure about the long-term - I haven't heard any rumours of cancellation yet, but the viewer numbers are pretty low. On the other hand, those viewer are apparently generally quite rich, which is very desireable, so maybe that'll save it. :)
