    30 rock came out at the same time with basically the same premise but was actually funny.

    Sorkin was going for a “comedy show within a dramatic show” thing and could not make the comedy work, which undercut the drama. It just wasn’t believable.

    The cast was stunningly good, but because the dramatic context was so flimsy, it all just sort of collapsed as a concept.
