Season 3
The third season of THE NEWSROOM, like its previous incarnations, is a deep-down comic microcosm of the world at large. A tangle of a, b, c, and d plots-the show mixes love, politics, bureaucracy, equality, violence, religion, marriage, sex and hunger and, in the end, makes perfect, hilarious sense.
Baghdad Bound
Jim gets abducted while taping a feel-good pet segment in war-torn Afghanistan, and George is on the shortlist for the Order of Canada.
One Dumb Idea
George and his staff of segment producers have a sudden interest in producing sitcoms - at $50,000 per episode all they need is one dumb idea.
Dial "G" for Gristle
Media tycoon Conrad Scott (Doug Lennox) visits the newsroom and is offered a life-changing gristly steak.
Lolita
George is asked to lecture at the local university and, thanks to a bit of charm and a stolen thesis, wows the class enough to hold 'office hours'; with a very attractive, very young student, Lolita.
Latent Homosexual Tendencies
George's therapist falls into a coma after suggesting that George has latent homosexual tendencies.
Learning to Fly
It is the end of the world in all dimensions.
