leona is one of my favorite tv characters ever

[u/Mind_Play_Error]

This is one of my favorite shows that I watch every year! The rewatch value is the best imo. I love every cast member and I believe Oliva Munn was the love of my life during its airing. Aaron Rogers thanks for this post!!

I wish Aaron Sorkin would write another stellar show. I rewatch this and The West Wing constantly.

[u/WriterDave]

This was literally my favorite TV show of all time.

Okay, maybe COPS is my favorite, but NEWSROOM was the best.

Except for COPS.
