Aaron Sorkin's back on NBC
Aaron Sorkin's back on NBC this season!
Sadly, the "West Wing" and "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip" creator/writer is not, however, doing a series for the ratings-starved network. He's just doing a cameo appearance on one of the network's lowest-rated but most critically-adored series, the sitcom "30 Rock," in which he will play himself and presumably have lots to say about how both of the aforementioned shows were treated by the network, which has since been purchased by Kabletown...I mean, Comcast.
Here's a clip of "30 Rock" creator/star Tina Fey and Sorkin at the recent Golden Globes trophy show (scroll to 3:20), broadcast by NBC.

Remember when critics were saying that Studio 60 was going to be the critical hit of the season and 30 Rock was going to look like a pale imitation? Good times.
