Trivia:
Throughout episode 2-20, "Bells and a Siren", Dan jokes that his young publicist should be at home watching "Felicity" (1998). Felicity was produced by Ron Howard, Brian Grazer and Tony Krantz- the same team responsible for this show.See more »
Quotes:
Rebecca Wells:We're divorced.
Dan Rydell:You're separated.
Rebecca Wells:It's the same thing.
Dan Rydell:No it's not. That's why they have two words. "Separated" means you're thinking of getting divorced. It also means you're thinking of staying together.

Sports Night, 7 June 2005
Author: STINGHERSHEY from United States

This show is amazing. I can't even believe it only was on 3 seasons, I would like to know if there are any lost episodes. My husband and I love, love, love this show. It is philosophical, thought provoking, holds symbolism, the communication dialog is with rapid succession, incredibly paced, just amazing. The shows flows with humor, and is really not about sports. Its about relationships, the ups & downs of life, new discoveries, etc..I just can't express enough how wonderful this show is. This is and was the best show ever in the history of television. I just don't understand why it was canceled. Oh, might I also say the direction is awesome. I have not seen West Wing, but will be checking this out. I am just not into politics. But am curious about this show. In closing, I wish they would bring Sports Night back, and all the original characters. Thank you.
