                          THE NEWSROOM
                          (1996, twelve 30-minute episodes and one 60-minute
                          finale, video)
                          August 26–September 14

                          This critically acclaimed satire on network news stars
                          Finkleman as self-obsessed news director George
                          Findlay. Scathingly satirical and profoundly
                         outrageous,
                          The Newsroom is one of the freshest comedies to come
                          along in years.

                          MORE TEARS
                          (1998, three 30-minute episodes and one 68-minute
                          finale, video)
                          September 15–September 28

                          Finkleman revives his George Findlay character from
                         The
                          Newsroom for this take on the corruption of the media.
                          More Tears alternates scathing social satire with
                          surrealistic elements.
