Aaron Sorkin is back with another series set in the television world — HBO announced Thursday it has ordered his new hour-long pilot, about the adventures of a cable news show, to series.
This time, Sorkin’s story is centered around a cable news anchor, played by Jeff Daniels, as well as his staff and new executive producer. Emily Mortimer stars as the EP, and Sam Waterston returns after his long “Law and Order” stint to play their boss.
