This is just awful. RIP Chandler Bing.

I was not a fan of Friends, but I'm much more not a fan of preying on people's addictions for money until you kill them.

I loved him as Oz in The Whole Nine Yards.

He created and starred in a very short-lived TV show called Mr. Sunshine where he managed a sports arena. I really liked it.

Haven’t seen it. I’ll keep a look out for it.

I loved him on Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. Could never understand why it was cancelled.

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.

Could this BE any worse?

This is just awful. RIP Chanandler Bong.
