Watch The Newsroom Season 3 Episode 6: Learning to Fly full HD on ComComHD Free

The Newsroom is a Canadian comedy-drama show that ran on CBC Television in the 1996–1997, 2003–2004, and 2004–2005 seasons. In 2002, a two-hour television movie called Escape from the Newsroom was shown. The show is set in the newsroom of a TV station that is never named, but is generally thought to be based on the CBC. The show was based on the American show The Larry Sanders Show and was similar to the British Drop the Dead Donkey and the Australian Frontline. It got its dark humor from the political games and sheer incompetence of the people who made the station's nightly news show, City Hour. Even though it wasn't meant to be an ongoing series at first, The Newsroom's first 13 episodes made it one of the most critically acclaimed shows on Canadian TV in the 1990s. After The Newsroom ended, Finkleman made three short-run shows for the CBC: More Tears, Foolish Heart, and Foreign Objects. Findlay was a connecting character in all of them.
