Oh, Sports Night is just one of the best shows ever, but sadly has only been shown on abc1 over here so most Brits haven't been able to appreciate it. :( It's basically the same premise as Studio 60 (which is about people making a comedy/political satire show) but about sports presenters.
I couldn't get into West Wing, mostly because of the whole 'let's bomb Syria, yay!' thing in an early episode that didn't sit well with me and also I dislike being told that I must watch anything and I got that at least once. Didn't work for Firefly either... ;)
As for 'coming soon', the pilot airs in the US this coming weekend but I don't know if it's got a slot lined up, so there's no telling when it'll turn up here.
