Mr. Sunshine Is the Studio 60 Reunion You’ve Yearned For -- Vulture:

Perry x 2 via Vulture. |
Mr. Sunshine, Matthew Perry's new sitcom about an emotionally shut-down guy who runs a sports arena, premieres tonight on ABC. There are a bunch of fun facts about the casting of the show — Lost's Hurley (Jorge Garcia) pops up as an arena employee Perry condescendingly refers to as Bobert (he'll be back for at least one more episode), and Andrea Anders, who plays Perry's love interest, co-starred in Joey, making her a charter member of the 'I banged Chandler Bing and Joey Tribbiani' club — but none are as weird as this one: Mr. Sunshine is basically a Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip reunion. What, you haven't been praying to the TV gods for one of those?
This is pretty much exactly why I'm looking forward to this show. Sorkin-less Sorkin though it may be.
