HBO's The Newsroom Sloan Sabbith and Don Keefer (Best Show on Television)

[@marvinamann4969]

Honestly, the book scene is one of my favourite scenes in all of television. Never fails to make me smile

[@theolamp5312]

@Marvin Amann - I mostly agree, except for Why Is America The Greatest Country In The World.

[@maxmustermann-zx9yq]

yeah man, they even got a german language joke in with "ich tun" ("tun" aka the basic version of "do" is a seldom used word that has a reputation usually way overused by foreigners who don't speak german very well)

[@sophierdz2760]

I cannot express how much I love seeing comments only months old!!! One of my favorite show EVER!!

[@jdax21]

I loved Don so much more when he started going out with Sloan. Aaron Sorkin should consider giving them their own spin-off show. Will's monologues brought me to the "Newsroom", but Sloan and Don kept me coming back. Pairing them was a genius move and their banter and chemistry could have kept that show going for years.

[@tinyfistm.2607]

It took me a while to start liking Don Keefer, but the "no, no" wingman scene immediately after Sloan expressed her displeasure at the revenge porn sealed it for me. :)

I love Sloan... I want to see what she says about financial news, but I guess it would be too much work the graphics. Plus, years, plus have to have people who know what to ACTUALLY add in the financial news, at least three... Which would be the poor suckers that would have that kind of tedious work jikes

[@shanetaylor5403]

I have to be honest, I’m a huge nerd, and Hyperinflation in the Weimar Republic, a History of the Economics of Post WWI Germany sounds like a super interesting book.

[@stephangro1496]

according to Mark Blyth the German Banks flooded the country with bank notes to make them almost worthless so that Germany did not have to repay their war debt with real money. They did it for nine months.

[@buildingenergy9365]

I'd suggest Adam Tooze's the wages of destruction. He's also got some other economic stuff that is really interesting.

The idea of Olivia Munn struggling to get a date is laughable

[@khymaaren]

Olivia? Yeah. Sloan? Oh, I believe it.

[@richarda29]

On the other hand, the idea of Sloan Sabbith "thinking" she has to struggle to get a date is quite believable. Woman consistently undervalue themselves in America, even those without cause to.

[@imartimus]

I know this is just a show, but I was friends with an insanely attractive girl in college. She was single the entire time I was in college with her and rarely went on dates with anyone. I asked her the same question Don did and she said it was because guys rarely asked her out and guys that had the confidence to were super pompous dickheads who thought they could get with any girl they want. She told me that the kind of guys she liked were scared to talk to her because they thought they had no chance with her.

[@ReaverLordTonus]

That last arc with the book was both hilarious and adorable

[@jerryhong4304]

Not only is it sad that such a great show is off the air but it makes me weep we cannot have a real news show like this

[@Gabryal77]

that "no no" scene.. I don't know what it is, it just communicated so so much with such a small gesture. Seriously chills.

[@nikitagorawara]

Sloan confronts the guy she was dating who leaked her photos... That no no is just after that.

[@sblack48]

[@faolan1686]

Don is my hero. Almost by accident he captured the heart of a ravishingly beautiful, strikingly intelligent women with a heart of gold and the wide eyed naivety of a twelve year old. He did all of this by just being the nice guy that he is. I solute you sir.

[@darrellfrazier8785]

[@obliviouz]

No, being *just* nice doesn't work. Don is far more than just nice. He's actually got wit, charm, a sense of humor, is good at his job, empathetic, and most importantly, a good balance between confidence and self-awareness. Oh, and he's also not afraid to show vulnerability from time to time - see his "Am I losing Maggie?" bit after the Fukushima story.

[@Gabryal77]

To me the thing that Don personifies the best is personal courage

"Spricht jemand hier Deutsch?" -- "Ich tun." -- "Not as well as you think." (Says the character who butchered the pronunciation on that book inscription so badly that I can barely understand it even after _knowing_ what he is going to say.) At least they're not trying to pass off any of the characters as a native speaker. Whenever Holywood tries to do that, hilarity usually ensues. (At least among native speakers. ;-) ) While I perfectly understand why the German "ch" and the umlauts trip up Anglophones about as much as "squirrel" does the average German. ;-)

"The character who butchered the pronunciation" was reading it from a written note, clearly intended to demonstrate that the character does not speak German, so clearly he would be likely to butcher the pronunciation, don't you think?
