Cathcing up on old episodes of Lou Grant, which I loved as a kid. I wanted to be Rossi.
Unfortunately, after catching a few episodes on Hulu, the show does not hold up. The scripts are incredibly stiff as is the acting. And frankly, that paper is too bloated. They have Lou, Charlie and Art basically all doing the same thing. If Rupert bought that paper he'd cut that staff in half in about three minutes. And what's with Rossi always shoving his hands under his pits like that character from SNL? And Animal? A staff photographer who's not totally stoned all the time? Puhleeze. Today he'd be a freelancer with no insurance.
Now Rockford, there was a show!
