Looking back on Episode 14, “The Harriet Dinner 2″

by Terri
Harriet Dinner

According to the More4 site, “The Harriet Dinner, Part 2″ was the episode broadcast last night in the U.K.; it originally aired in February in the U.S. For those who want to read what was written about this episode when it was first broadcast, here are links to reviews, recaps and forum discussions on:

For those of us who saw “The Harriet Dinner, Part 2″ nine months ago, it’s the one in which all the plot threads I listed last week for Part 1 get tied up, some neatly, some in a big old ugly tangled knot. By the end, Danny and Jordan are together (yay!), Matt and Harriet are apart (like that’ll last), Tom and Lucy are reconciled (aww), Simon and Darius are done with their fight, Jack has made the world safe for dirty words on the news, and thanks to Cal’s Noah’s Ark approach to snake control, the stage has been torn up.

Just another day in show biz.

More importantly, this is an episode that really set up the major storylines for the rest of the season. We’re in happy Danny-and-Jordan land now, with baby silliness and childbirth drama to come. Meanwhile, the most recent in this series of breakups with Harriet sends Matt into a tailspin that’s nothing but trouble for his mental health and the ratings. Jack’s walk on the right side moves along the softening of his character; he’s maybe no longer the coyote now, just the snake in danger of being attacked by bigger bad guys.

About Watching Studio60

Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip was a show about making a show -- a Friday night sketch comedy living and dying by the ratings and the buzz and the bottom line. It also turned out to be about the ways that overinflated expectations and caustic criticism can doom a TV drama. Still, if you're a fan of great acting and Aaron Sorkin's way with dialog, there's a lot to love in Studio 60's sole season. Read here to look back at the show, and look forward at what the cast and creative powers are doing now.
