HBO’s ‘The Newsroom’ gets set to sign off for the final
By Cassie Dresch TV Media
Will McAvoy is about to sign off for the last time. The quick-witted, brazen managing editor and news anchor of “News Night” at the fictitious Atlantis Cable News channel will see the lights dim in his studio, and fans of HBO’s “The Newsroom” will have to bid him a fond farewell. The third and final season of the topical Aaron Sorkin political drama kicks off with its premiere episode Sunday, Nov. 9, on HBO.
There will only be six episodes to conclude this popular series, but Sorkin (“The West Wing,” “The Social Network,” 2010), the show’s creator and principal writer, told “Entertainment Weekly” back in September that he’s excited with how this last season finishes.
“I’m really excited. I do feel it’s a really solid season,” he said. “I think we’re wrapping up a lot of stories in a nice way.”
The show definitely had a whole host of stories to follow last year. The main arc focused on Operation Genoa, a falsified report about the United States Marine Corps using sarin gas on civilians in Pakistan. (While many aspects of Operation Genoa are fictitious, the plot line is based on an actual scandal from 1998 involving CNN and “Time” magazine.)
Other stories — of a less newsy nature — that came to light included Will (Jeff Daniels, “Dumb & Dumber,” 1994) and MacKenzie’s (Emily Mortimer, “Shutter Island,” 2010) engagement; Maggie’s (Alison Pill, “Milk,” 2008) recovery after her traumatic experience in Uganda; Jim (John Gallagher Jr., “Olive Kitteridge”) and Hallie’s (Grace Gummer, “Extant”) slowly straining relationship; and Don (Thomas Sadoski, “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit”) and Sloan’s (Olivia Munn, “Perfect Couples”) budding romance.
Whew! It’s a lot to chew on. Of course, the spotlight won’t solely be on the personal stories of the characters. Like both previous seasons — and since it’s expected from a show titled “The Newsroom” — the “News Night” crew will tackle some real-life news stories. One of the major story arcs for season 3 will be the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing,
and there will also be a plot following a government whistle-blower, a la Edward Snowden.
While “The Newsroom” has received generally favorable reviews for its first two seasons, Sorkin faced a bit of criticism from quite a few journalists who chastised him for his portrayal of reports, anchors and practically every television
“OK, I’ve never retracked a spot through speakerphone 90 secs b4 air. Anybody done that? #Newsroom,” Emmy-winning journalist Luke Russert also tweeted, referring to a speakerphone gaffe MacKenzie made in the episode. Sorkin took some time to address these criticisms at the Tribeca Film Festival back in April, explaining that
point and even going so far as apologizing for his work.
“I think that there’s been a terrible misunderstanding,” he told the crowd. “I did not set the show in the recent past in order to show the pros how it should have been done. ... I wasn’t trying to, and I’m not capable of, teaching a professional journalist a lesson. That
idealistically,” Sorkin added. “I try to
Sorkin has been around the block a few times, and his knack for creating and writing good stories has served him well. The 53-year-old New Yorker has taken home six Primetime Emmy Awards for another political drama of his, “The West Wing,” as well as a Golden Globe and an Oscar for his 2010 movie “The Social Network.” He also created and wrote the Emmy-winning shows “Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip” and “Sports Night” and penned the scripts for the Oscar-nominated movies “A Few Good Men” (1992) and “Moneyball” (2011).
“The Newsroom’s” lead actor, Jeff Daniels, also has his fair share of awards and nominations. Daniels, who is probably most well known as Harry Dunne from “Dumb & Dumber” (1994), took home an Outstanding Lead Actor Emmy for his portrayal of Will last year and was nominated again this year. The musician, actor and playwright also has a Tony nomination to his name for the 2009 Broadway play “God of Carnage,” as well as four Golden Globe nods, including one for “The Newsroom.”
When he won his Emmy in 2013, Daniels was initially quite shocked.
His first words when he got up to the podium for his acceptance speech were, “Well, crap!” After he left the stage, he explained his reaction a little more to reporters.
“I’ve been neutral about this whole thing,” he said. “I’ve been nominated a bunch of times — Google it — enough to kind of not lean toward it, not to hope too much. ... I felt the work stood up to what the other guys were doing, but we’re all doing different things. It’s anybody’s game. I was happy to win, but surprised because it could have been anyone.”
Ultimately, it was Daniels who took home that Emmy and challenged for another in 2014. With season 3 ready to get underway, he could quite possibly be in the mix again next year. First and foremost, they have to power through the last six episodes. As Will says in a trailer for the upcoming season, “We don’t do good TV. We do the news.” Thankfully, “The Newsroom” is good TV on the news. As Will gets ready to sign off for the last time, catch the premiere of the third and final season of “The Newsroom” airing Sunday, Nov. 9, on HBO.

President Obama was in California over the weekend to attend a fundraiser hosted by the creator of Farmville. Yeah, Obama and the creator of Farmville have a lot in common, ‘cause they both really wish it was still 2009.
Runners from Kenya came in first, second and third in the Chicago Marathon yesterday. Even crazier, all three runners turned out to be one dude lapping everyone.
During a recent interview, Hugh Grant announced that he will no longer star in “Bridget Jones 3.” Sources say Grant has been unhappy with
the script for years, it just took him forever to say it.
And finally, a new study has found that babies who weigh more when they’re born grow up to be more successful in school. Yep, kids who are fatter are also smarter, or as bullies call it, “the perfect storm.”
Some big international news.
North Korean leader Kim Jong
Un made his first public appearance yesterday in over 40 days. But since he saw his shadow, that now means 60 more years of nuclear winter.
And this doesn’t sound encouraging. During a recent interview, Sen. John McCain declared that the U.S. isn’t winning the war against ISIS. Even ISIS was like, “Well, not with THAT attitude!”

Combining
By Andrew Warren TV Media
Thinking about Thanksgiving conjures up a lot of different imagery. There’s the classic image of pilgrims to the new world sitting down to a feast with their native friends that we all learned about in elementary school — a perfect children’s tale for various generations.
There’s the Black Friday shopping and the start of the holiday season chaos that only passes once Dec. 25 has come and gone. There’s good times with family, the fresh fall harvest and the trees laden with vividly colored leaves in the great outdoors.
Most of all, though, there’s the food. While every family has its own culinary traditions for this time of the year, the classic turkey with the huge array of sides spread out alongside it is the classic Thanksgiving image. That classic meal, though, is open to a lot of interpretations, and some of them are rather outrageous.
This year, the Food Network is taking a look at some of the more extreme Thanksgiving meals that are served around the nation.
“Outrageous Thanksgiving,” a one-hour holiday special, airs
Saturday, Nov. 15, on Food Network. A holiday that’s known for its indulgence can also get pretty outrageous in the long run.
Perhaps your family likes things a bit spicy? Then you’ll want to feast your eyes on the red-hot Thanksgiving meal on display, including a Buffalo-style turkey and wasabi mashed potatoes served with a delicacy known as habanero cornbread. A bit too mouth-burning for your tastes? How about a cajun cookout that fries everything: the turkey, the mashed potato balls,
the stuffing — heck, even the cranberry sauce finds a home in the piping hot oil!
It’s “Outrageous” how big things can get, too. “Outrageous Thanksgiving” will also take a look at some oversized Thanksgiving foods, including massive apple pies and the biggest sweet potato casserole that you’ve ever laid eyes on.
Really, it’s no surprise that some people get a bit out of control over their Thanksgiving meals. After all, it’s a holiday that originally was meant to celebrate a bountiful harvest, to stuff ourselves before the cold sets in. If ever there was a time of year to take foods to an outrageous level, this would be it. “Outrageous Thanksgiving” airs Saturday, Nov.
