(the writer does a little dance and sings a little song)

From Variety:

Aaron Sorkin and Thomas Schlamme are headed back to NBC. Peacock has won an intense bidding war for the next TV show from “The West Wing” duo, an hourlong drama dubbed “Studio 7 on the Sunset Strip” that’s set behind-the-scenes at a longrunning Los Angeles-based sketch comedy show. It’s believed the net has made a rich 13-episode commitment to the Warner Bros. TV project.

“I hope it’s going to be what ‘Larry Sanders’ did with … talkshows [Sorkin said.] …I would like to do that with latenight sketch comedy — with ‘Saturday Night Live’: in other words, behind the scenes at a network latenight sketch-comedy, edgy show.”

Sorkin wrote the pilot script for the project before the pitching process began. That strategy helped build interest for the project among the webs…Sorkin is expected to personally deliver the script for his project to networks as early as Friday.

And now I’m going to go off and sing and dance some more.

Go Aaron! Go Tommy! Go Aaron! Go Tommy!
