    Premise: A pampered self absorbed news director

Why The Newsroom might be annoying:

    The series originally ended after 13 episodes in March of 1997 with everyone losing their job, getting into a political campaign and the anchor dying.
    The series revised with a special in October 2002, claiming the anchor awakened from a 2 year coma (It was actually 4 1/2 years since the show ended).
    The news director is more obsessed with his BMW, parking spot and muffins than the news items.
    None of the characters, other than George Findlay, are well developed and are merely his wallpaper.
    The news anchor is a stereotypical good looking news reader who is a dim bulb.

Why The Newsroom might not be annoying:

    In January 2004, seven years after the first season, the show shot another 13 episode season.
    One episode was entirely computer animated.
    There is no opening theme or laugh track.
