Aaron's next TV series should be


about the inner workings of the U.N.
Should be enormous material there for drama,politics,everything that The West Wing had.
I know he has said that the NR will be his last TV show,but ya never know.

He wrote the idea for that show into "Studio 60."

reply

"Nations"

His next series should be about a CPA firm.

reply

Accountants are soooooooo enthralling.

I read once after TWW and before S60 that he was going to write about a young woman in a symphony, a cello player. I've never figured out if he was being sarcastic and I fell for it or off he meant it but couldn't pull it together.

reply

Not an Aaron Sorkin show, but Mozart in the Jungle (2014) exists, and it's great. She's an oboe player not a cello player, but close enough.

reply

I want his to do "The Press Room" a show about the Press Secretary. It would be the best of The West Wing and The Newsroom combined.

reply

Even though I personally think all 4 of his shows were genius, he considers his TV run more or less a failure. He has said he wont do another series. He has said he has done 4 shows and "only one was The West Wing"

Doesn't sound like he enjoys the experience. It's a shame, I love his series work.

reply

If he goes back to TV, which is highly unlikely, I would want his next show to be about a newspaper. The fictional "Sports Night" was always in danger of cancellation, so that kind of attitude would work well with a daily newspaper that's struggling and in danger of ending. It would allow Sorkin to have fun with the paper's print edition vs. digitial edition.

I agree. I think that idea would be perfect for him!
