i will say something in defense of mitch.
it's like the writers pimped mitch to high heaven and tehn ben read the script and went 'wha????' and has tried on his own to tone mitch down.
he has enthusiasm, certainly. and a bit of giddiness and 'wow mom, look where i am'...but he's not arrogant. he's not 'me boss, you not, bow to my greatness'
he has some humility in him that recognizes that he just might be in over his head.
i think the writers just got too carried away with 'isn't he great? isn't he grand? isn't he super?' and forgot to take a step back and realize jsut how THEY would feel if Joe Blow writer was brought in and THEY were told, yeah, he's great, he's super, he's gonna be your new boss.
Do you really think, say if mgm brought in JMS and coop and the boys were ALL demoted to only writers, that it'd be a smooth transition????
they needed to touch on that insecurity and anxiety and angst and tension.
