"Let me off the plane and I'll take him to the gate myself!"; "I'm a lottery winner and I lose my ticket." And Don is not as bad as it turns out.
"We reported the news." — how Don suddenly realized everything and got out of it! I shed tears.

"Obama good. Osama bad."
"Good thinking" — Will is stoned just :D

The "deaf" credits with Obama in the background also brought something to tears. Strongly.

Maggie is acting very strangely: "I want you, but I don't want you." The heroine was "built" in vain, it was necessary to let them be together. Still, they see perfectly well what is happening. And Jim is too good to pull her out of her relationship with Don, despite the way she is attracted to him, Jim.

By the way, when Will's bodyguard was so abruptly asked to put his hands on the hood of the car, it became very clear about racism.
"You're a big guy. Don't do anything that might make us nervous."
"I can't do anything about being big and black at the same time."
Men have more rights than women, but whites have more rights than blacks.

God, what a kindergarten this Maggie is arranging, all that remains is to write on her forehead that she likes another guy, well, it's not funny anymore 🤦🏻♂️

And they didn't find Vrede's corpse. I didn't understand how they found out about the death of bin Laden, from Biden's text message and made the news about it? And I didn't understand why I had to get out and tell this news to the president? People listened to the news first, then they listened to the same thing from the president. Through something. First they pooped, then they took off their pants. Everything is strange

Sunshine - Jonathan Edwards - the song that Jim and Will sang at the beginning, by the way, I liked their version much more than the original)))

I was 15 in 2011, I lived on another continent, and I wasn't worried about problems from overseas, and it's great that there are projects that tell about something and arouse interest, as if I felt their emotions and read about all these terrorist attacks, thanks to the News Service for self-development

The series shows how much this topic worried the people of America. 9 years after the terrorist attack and one of the first guesses is Osama. We can talk about the controversy of the label "enemy of the people", since it was never said that a person was a scapegoat. It was necessary to name someone and chose him. But if we go back to the series, it's worth mentioning Will's stoner. I think the director didn't just introduce this topic for fun. Maybe it shows that even such serious things should be treated with ease? But then it's worth noting that Will was collected and serious at the end. I sincerely hope that this was not written so that we would worry about the broadcast.

Maggie is interesting. There are few places where you will meet such a character. Her throwing is very realistic. She wants to be with Don because she doesn't realize that their relationship isn't as strong as she wants it to be. Or maybe he does, but she's used to him. She's comfortable and doesn't want to change anything. She feels attracted to Jim, but she doesn't want to accept it. Therefore, she arranges everything so that he has a personal life without her, but then she feels jealous and gets confused in her thoughts, trying to push away feelings.

And I don't like Maggie's throwing at all. A cool guy, Don, who takes care of her.
And her colleague Jim, whom she runs after from the first second of meeting in plain sight, which is unwise, unethical, and resembles a soap opera. I don't like all these moments in the series the most, they're kind of unnatural.

Somehow the stars have come together so much that I'm watching this series right now. On the 8th, I will take the state journalism exam. Over the years of studying at the journalism faculty, rose-colored glasses were broken a million times, my plans for the future after graduation were constantly changing. I understand that most of the editorial staff's work here is pure fiction. Only from something tears rolled to my eyes when they showed the reaction to the news of not a staff of journalists. It seems that my plans for the future have changed again.

What a cool moment when Don tells the pilots about destroying a terrorist. It just feels like he's proud that he was able to tell something so important first. You can feel his love for work and desire to "tell the news." Even so, and not from the screens.

How annoying Maggie is, like that dog in the manger. And why did she decide that she could break through boundaries like that and climb into someone else's personal life with her boots. Lisa, on the other hand, turned out to be very empathetic and decent.

First, journalists and corrupt women make themselves a freedom fighter against the evil USSR, and then when he fights for freedom against you, it is already terrorism. Only vikilix norm guys have them, thank you at least a couple of mentions gave(so far 2 times).
