Aaron Sorkin TV Drama Creator Bids Farewell To Television? Sorkin Shares, ‘I Still Don’t See Another Series In My Near Future’

Aaron Sorkin TV personality has recently said that he might be done with television for good. It would seem that the creator the show "West Wing" has decided to end his TV show-making streak after the third and final season of "The Newsroom."

"I know the whole 'Never say never' stuff," Sorkin told the Los Angeles Times. "But, I'm pretty certain I'm about to write my last three episodes of television."

The final season for the "The Newsroom" has recently aired. It was larded with so much emotion and opinion, as well as disagreement about what the season was trying to portray, what it could be, and whether or not watching its final episodes will end up saving the series. Sadly, it could also serve as even more tinder to Sorkin's fiery critiques.

Aaron Sorkin TV declared such just this past May, but he reaffirmed his decision to the paper later in the year. "All these months later, I still don't see another series in my near future," he said. "But, again, you never know. Maybe I'll get another idea."

He also mentioned what he believed were his failures, "Sports Night" and "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip." Fans think that he is merely being too hard on himself. Those who have loved his work think that his 1998 "Sports Night" was great and "The West Wing," which followed a year after, was also a great one to watch.

Although it may be true that Aaron Sorkin TV show maker is best known for his work in the small screen industry, he has actually written movie screenplays as well. He was the mind behind the screenplay for "The Social Network," which won him an Oscar. He also created the screenplay for "Moneyball." Right now, he is quite busy working on a Steve Jobs biopic.
