When is newsroom starting again

I think, if anything, we as actors are comfortable in the roles now, in the characters. It takes a while. On Broadway, you do three weeks of previews before opening. It feels like with Season 3, we opened. Season 3 could be the strongest, not only from the writing but also from the performances.

You pass them up. You write Episode 2, someone does Episode 4, another does 5. Every two weeks he has to climb up a mountain. My weekends, forget it! I brought in golf clubs for the first season and they never left the apartment I was renting. To go to a golf course for four or five hours would be a complete waste of time, because I needed that time to memorize and re-memorize, so that when I got there on Monday I knew it. The Season 2 finale almost felt like it could be a series-ending episode.

Did you ever get the feeling that might be the case — that you might not be back for Season 3? Everyone sat down — HBO and Aaron — and decided one more would work. Not just Aaron and the cast, but fans, too. So for six episodes we threw everything we could at it and now we think we have an even better ending. Yeah, yeah. Where to next? How do you balance this much of a workload? Is it just a passion that takes over you?

Coincidental timing? Me and Jim [Carrey] were talking about this the other day, and he paints. A lot of times we spend waiting. Waiting for the phone to ring, waiting for that movie to get the money it needs so it can be made, and before you know it weeks and months have gone by. Why would anyone on Earth watch that, unless they hated themselves with a violent passion?

In fact, Sorkin has tangible plans about how to bring back The West Wing. The Newsroom: is Aaron Sorkin threatening to bring back his worst show? The last thing anybody wants from the media in The Newsroom. Now, THR has reported that during a recent career retrospective with GQ , Daniels revealed that his opening monologue in The Newsroom saved his career.

There was no guarantee we had a series. It was all one me. I worked my ass off on it. First take, I hit it out of the park.
