Customer Ratings & Reviews

Let's get a negative out of the way: there aren't enough episodes in this season, the series finale. When a show is this good, you just want more. Period. It's a great wrap up to a terrific series that I wish would have gone on longer, but nothing is left unresolved & the end is satisfying. Aaron Sorkin and his team give us great writing & the cast nails the performances again. Like "The West Wing", where we all wish people that smart & talented were actually in the roles presented on the show, "The Newsroom" gives us a great ensemble of flawed characters that still exceed any group we have in the real world. If only a news show were this intelligent & unbiased... Thanks again, Aaron! I can't wait for your next show.

The Newsroom is one of my all time favorite shows, but it definitely had a rough run, which is why it ended after only 25 episodes. Aaron Sorkin apparently decided he didn't want to do it anymore and HBO had him end the show. As a fan of the series and buying TV shows on bluray, this was an easy choice for me. Just know that this 3rd season only consists of 6 episodes when considering what price you are willing to pay. Man, after living through the first few months of this new administration, we could really use some more seasons of The Newsroom.

The shame is that this was the last season of a drama that informed and enlightened the viewer - not only to the manipulation of the general public but it also cast most news and commentary programs in an extremely unfavorable light. Neither conservatives nor liberals appreciated its insight nor its showing them up The wonder is that the show lasted three seasons. Never-the-less it has set a high water mark for intelligent drama.

The whole series, 3 seasons, of Newsroom is a great review of recent, controversial events, starting with the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in season 1. A large issue in all the episodes was whether news reporting as done today is for entertainment or for enlightenment. I'm sorry the series won't continue. Jeff Daniels, as a conservative and celebrated newscaster, demonstrates all the tensions between news as information and news as entertainment or political statement. On the lighter side, the various romantic triangles and misunderstandings are fun. Olivia Munn and Alison Pill play their roles especially well in that context.

I've been a fan of Aaron Sorkin's series since I first saw 'Sports Night.' As a former broadcast journalist, I suppose I'm biased, but I thought 'The Newsroom' was fantastic – great characters, rapid-fire dialog and moving stories. There were a few beats in the final season that definitely seemed forced, but that may have been due to the shortened six-episode run.

Aaron Sorkin cannot create a bad television show. First there was "Sports Night." Then came "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip" and "West Wing." And now "The Newsroom." The stars (Jeff Bridges, Emily Mortimer, Olivia Munn, and others) superbly turn Sorkin's rapid-fire dialogue and heartfelt monologues into must-see TV!

There are few dramas on television that make you think and feel at the same time more adeptly than Newsroom. It is truly unfortunate that it did not receive the viewership it deserved. Still, this series ends on an emotional but satisfying note.

Those whose political opinions run left are more likely to enjoy this show. Regardless of your views, however, the acting is great, and the plot conflicts are always interesting. I was sorry to see this series come to an end.

This is one of my favorite shows. Aaron Sorkin always delivers a great series and this is no exception. Fast paced and smart, this season really ties the series up well and leaves you wanting more but satisfied that it is done.

The sound and video are stellar for the 3rd and final season of a great show. Sorkin's dialogue and intrigue for the truncated final season of this HBO series did not disappoint.

I love this series and am so bummed that it was just a limited series. I enjoyed watching the entire season without any commercials. Definitely worth the money for that alone!

Yes, it only ran for 3 Seasons, but The Newsroom held me captive from the get-go. A great combinations of complex actors in a complex plot. Very entertaining series.

As I mentioned in my review of Season l and II, this entire series is fantastic. I love watching it over and over again. Must see show.

This season was a good, but not great way to close out the series. It was incredibly short in number of episodes, even for an HBO series, and did feel a bit forced with the way certain story lines progressed, but it had the same good writing, acting and quick wit I came to expect from the series in the first 2 seasons.

I wish this show had lasted longer. While the first season was the best, this one was also really good! Too bad it's only 6 episodes

This was one of the best TV dramas I've seen recently. Its a shame it only lasted 3 seasons. This was a satisfying conclusion.

It really tied the previous two seasons together. The show was so well written and acted that I wish there had been more seasons.

Another well written and directed show from Aaron Sorkin. Great actors saying great dialogue makes for terrific television.

One of the more surprisingly undrrated good shows to come out of hbo. An excellent final chapter for another good show.

More shows like this should be available. Smart, funny and educational. A winning combination.
