Matthew Perry is so much more than a comedy actor. I mean his comedy timing is perfect but he is also a damn brilliant dramatic actor. I was constantly amazed by performance on West Wing and Studio 60.
@Kasino80 yeah he was also nominated for best guest srar in a drama series twice for this role, all the more reason. But i guess he was still working on Friends.
@ac9milan which ones are you refering to? I noticed the "it usually takes people the better part of an hour to hate me and everything I stand for" which is a rewrite of a line from A Few Good Men between Tom Cruice and Demi More
Matthew Perry should have been a series regular after Sam left.

This role should've give us all a hint at how completely AWESOME he was going to be on Studio 60.
Still, though, my loyalties on that one lay with Bradley Whitford. (And, I wouldn't mind laying Whitford, either. ;) )

I love the show, love 'em all, but that may be my favorite line ever. I'm the press secretary, boo boo, I don't have that kinda time. Awesome.

This ep was one of the best. Watching Perry's character connect the dots on the VP's scandal was excellent.
I agree they should have kept him. I mean, he's smart enough to crack the case of the scandalous VP, but not good enough to keep on staff? :-)

I don't understand why they didn't develop his part...he really did a good job in this.
