Why he might be annoying:

    He wrote the sequels to 'Airplane' and 'Grease,' both of which did not live up to the originals.
    Other than his own character he did not fully develop the other roles in 'Newsroom.'

Why he might not be annoying:

    He created the TV series 'Newsroom' which concentrates on a boss who focuses on insignificant things rather than the major problems. It predates somewhat similar series Office (UK) and Office (UK).
    Much of his humor is self-deprecating.
    He studied law in college.
    He worked with friend, Dan Aykroyd.
