So a while back ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
demiurgent wrote up an episode of an entirely fictitious Sorkin-esque series called Comicsense.com. Maybe I've got too much Primetime Adventures on the brain. Maybe I'm lamenting the fact that Studio 60 has been de facto cancelled. Or maybe its just the fact that I love and miss Aaron Sorkin's halcyon days, and demiurgent captured that better than the man himself was doing at the time.
Regardless, I've read it over a few times.
I found myself rotating the cast of actors in my head. A lot of people in the comments have talked about wanting to put together a podcast version, and I would certainly want to be a part of that. I'm no professional voice actor, but I would certainly lend a hand and audition or whatever. But when I read it over its the voices of the cast of the various Sorkin series that I hear in my head; it started with the cast of Studio 60 and then expanded to the older shows when I realized I wasn't entirely content with some of my choices.
Yes, I understand I am completely neurotic.
So I hereby present a full cast list for Comicsense.com as it runs in my head, composed entirely of actors who have already appeared in a Sorkin series. In order of appearance:
Please understand this is not a definitive cast list, by any means. For all I know my selections may not line up with those of the author. And I'm not entirely happy with the relative dearth of names from the main cast of Sports Night. But what can you do, right?
(Man, this totally could have been a Because Its Wednesday. C'est la vie.)
