Oh, all right, I'll bite - how did "Studio 60..." end?...

With Chandler calling Bush Skippy McDumbass, and the military guys
telling civilians that even though it's against the law for themn to say
this, everything is Bush's fault, yadda yadda yadda. Then they went to
commercial making you think Amanda Peet was dead, but it was a cheap
fake out and they came back and all was well, and they wrapped up
everything happily, but then in one horrible tragic moment at the end
Chandler got back together with Harriet.
