US TV: The Newsroom

[Mindy]

as what i've blogged, i skipped the entire season 1 and pinanood ko kaagad ang season 2. haha! muntik na akong maloka sa bilis nilang magsalita lahat. but i think i'll like this show.

Why?? Go back, watch Season 1! LOL.

Talking fast, that's required I think, if you're starring in a show that Aaron Sorkin has written. That's his trademark, that's his style (see West Wing, see Studio 60, see Sports Night, or sa movie, see The Social Network)... which the writers of Scandals have been doing na rin (fast-talk).

Naku mga sis, huli na ko sa inyo!  I've yet to watch the 1st episode of Season 2.  Dami kasing work.  But I'll catch up this weekend 

I love fast-talking shows!  My favorite show ever is Gilmore Girls kaya siguro haha.

Ang onti naman ng nominations.  At si Jane Fonda pa talga ang na-nominate aside from Jeff Daniels eh konti lang naman exposure nya sa first season.  Labo.

^^ kaya ako, i make sure na may subtitle ang mga pinapanood ko. hehe. kasi hindi ko maintindihan madalas ang mga sinasabi nila. ang panget lang sakin pag may subtitle, halos nagbabasa nalang talaga ako. minsan hindi ko na masyadong nakikita ang acting. hehe

i'm loving this show more and more with each episode. feeling ko i'm so smart everytime nakakatapos ako ng episode. haha! sloan sabbith is my spirit animal. but i love how much of a take-charge person mac is. i'd love to have her as my boss.

Add me to the fan list! Even though masyadong idealistic ang mga characters sa series na to I still like it a lot and hope na sana nga may media or news team pa na katulad sa kanila. I really like na yung ginagamit nila na news are actually events na nagtranspire in real life. I hope tumagal tong series na to..and Jim & Maggie belong together. I kinda like Sloan & Don for each other.

jerry dantana is annoying me with his obsession on genoa. napa-google tuloy ako about operation tailwind, sorkin's real-life inspiration for the issue.

[domestic diva]

Love, love this show! I totally agree that I feel smarter after watching an episode!

[babyface82]

I love this show....makes me read specially when half the time i need to understand what they are talking about...hahahha

Intense lang ang last 2 eps...wala bang kilig insert....hahahha

[ginny_potter]

^ i look forward to don/sloan moments. hehe! di ko feel si jim and maggie eh.

grabeng palpak yung genoa story nila. but i love leona lansing for refusing to accept the resignation of the big 3.

[shanghai baby]

Love the show! Sloan Sabbith is my new girl crush. Haha. And Mac's drive is motivating.

Ako din, Jerry Dantana has been annoying since he started in their NY office. So the lawsuit filed is by Dantana, right? But for him to manipulate the film was a pretty stupid move. Desperate measure. I love the twist of the story.

Grace Gummer, the rebound from Vassar (lol), looks familiar so i had to google her. Now i understand why, she's Meryl Streep's daughter.

[simplykristine08]

^ ow, napagoogle din ako kasi familiar nga ang face. kapatid nya pala si mammie (i hate her sa The Good Wife). haha. magkamukhang magkamukha sila ng kapatid nya. at, ngayon ko lang din nalaman na anak sila ni Meryl Streep.

walang Newsroom this week next week Election Night part 1 and part 2 na sa susunod na linggo pa. season finale na kaya after that?

[ginny_potter]

^ grace was also in smash. anak siya ni anjelica huston (eileen) dun. i find her prettier than mamie pero mas maganda yung youngest nila, si louisa.

hayyy, only two more episodes to go before the finale. but the good news is... they're renewed for season 3! yayy.

[shanghai baby]

And it's so timely that countries (except for us, busy pa kay Napoles at Wally scandal) now are talking about this sarin gas used in Syria although in the show, allegedly it was the US military troop who used it. Wala lang, I share the sentiment of others here who feel smarter after watching an episode. When I first received a notification of Breaking News from CNN about sarin gas, I was like, "alam ko yan ah". Haha. Because I already googled it when it was discussed in the show.

[simplykristine08]

^ hindi ko alam na sarin ang ginamit sa Syria, ang alam ko lang chemical attack. di na ako updated sa news about Syria, nakakalungkot kasi sa totoo lang.

noong pinalabas yang Genoa na yan, talagang naparesearch ako kung totoo ba yan, kasi diba they're basing it on real events (tama ba?). kala ko tuloy totoo. hehe.

^^ sis, buti renewed sila. i thought kasi hindi na marerenew for season 3. i have to check louissa. oo, agree na mas pretty sya kay mamie pero magkamukha sila.

[domestic diva]

Yay for season 3!
Di ko feel si Maggie. I feel they could find a more charming and better looking artist.
Peace! Super love ko si Sloan. Beauty and Brains!

[Clair de Lune]

^ako naman na-aapreciate ko si Maggie. Yes, she's not celebrity-pretty but she's "realistic" looking, if you know what I mean. And pinag-agawan pa siya between two guys. Hehe.. 

[muahmuahmuah]

I love this show too I like the pace and the cast they all work well together. True, this didn't sit well with most American viewers because of the re-hash of news stories and dead pan comedy. Started watching West Wing because of this.

[simplykristine08]

Congratulations to Jeff Daniels for winning the Lead Actor, Drama in the 2013 Emmys!

[Myealexis21]

Kakasimula ko pa lang panuorin.

The first few minutes was boring, then Will had that long dialogue...

I love Mackenzie so much at like na like ko accent niya ha! Gusto ko si Jim and Maggie... can't wait for Maggie and Don to break up as mentioned in a previous post here.  Aliw na aliw ako kay Charlie.

Hahabol ako nasa Season 1 Episode 6 pa lang ako...

[simplykristine08]

kayang kaya mo yan. matatapos mo na season 1 today. LOL. di ko sya kayang panoorin ng walang subtitle. maiiwan ako. bwahaha. nakakalungkot ang break up nila don and maggie dyan. basta, mapapanood mo nalang

i get to love don na. sila ni sloane, bagay!! pero wag sanang madaliin
