I really like Andy, he was a great character and had the show had more seasons it would have been great to see a character arc of rebuilding for him. He was essentially a co executive producer at the end as he runs the room when Matt and Danny are leaving the studio in K&R. I know this show had flaws but I really want to know what the plans were for subsequent seasons and where those characters were going.
"Yeah, that's what tanking is like." I swear, Andy Mackinaw is like Star Trek TOS's Commander Spock. Andy is repressing his emotions and has been ever since he lost his wife and child. And yet he evokes humor in what he does to Lucy and Darius.
I know Matt and Dany are meant to be Sorkin but I see so much of him in Andy too. A far more realistic portrayal of him compared to Matt and Danny as the glamorised versions
The drama of this show was the best part. The worst part was that the actual “show within a show” wasn’t all that funny and it was hard to imagine that it was this staple of American television.
