I can't believe I haven't raved about this show here before.
The year before Aaron Sorkin created The West Wing, he created Sports Night. Sports Night has all the things that made The West Wing so good; interesting characters, excellent writing, and good stories. Sure, sometimes they all act like liberal pussies, but it's still good stuff.
And I should also point out that I hate sports, yet I love this show. The setting is generally unimportant. It's about the characters and the writing.
Good stuff. One of my all-time favorites. And it's a real shame that it only lasted two seasons.

There was definitely a touch of liberalism, but it was muted in favor of humor and statements of humanity, not politics.
