I liked this trailer when the show was first released- lots of renowned name actresses- but it's an overwritten, watered-down version of Newsroom. Without the intellectual criticisms of democracy, (and rants about the demolishment of the tea party!!) and without a Will McAvoy to lead the ship. And did I mention both Anniston and Reese play fairly unlikable difficult characters? That could be a plus in my book, (difficult women? hooray!) but here it's less of a plus, they're just difficult enough to be annoying, but not damaged, charismatic, or disturbed enough to divvy up the balance by adding plot friction.
