I just love how after she says the "I don't know who told you you're a bad guy" line, he pays all his attention to her.

I have some major respect for Sloan on this show. I mean she's liked Don for a while and not once has she done anything to ruin his relationship, give him bad advice or anything. She even helped Maggie with some issues. I think that is just so classy

If Olivia Munn ever said those words to me I'd melt. LOL

3:23 *Love the way Jim Harper delivers his lines in this scene* 👏🏻👏🏻

Olivia Munn is outstanding in Newsroom. I hope we see in future material that is as smartly written. She plays a brilliant women perfectly. That is something you just can’t fake.

How could you not ask Olivia Munn out?

"Why are you single?" "A lot of men are intimidated by my intelligence." "No, seriously."

Thats actually kind of sad she really put herself out there and looked like she got her heart stomped on

Sometimes you chose the person you feel safe asking...not the person you dreamed of asking. This is women put such an emphasis on a guy having strong self esteem. Feeling 'safe' with someone, in the end, will never be enough.

I feel like this was the scene that changed everything.

His stunned-into-silence face is just so good

Beautifully written scene - impeccably acted. God I adore Sloan!

Sorry, if I had the choice between the girl who plays Maggie, and Olivia Munn....Olivia Munn wins, hands down. I would ask her out just for the chance to be turned down.

"I could be wrong, I almost always am" the sign of the smartest person in the room, or conversation.

Don looked so freaked out when Sloan complimented him

I like this scene. Those 2 have a lot of respect for each other. I love the one where Sloane revenge punched and kicked her ex boyfriend right in front of his coworkers. And Don was with her. I replayed that over and over.

Politics aside, Sorkin knows how to write.

Her line. Because you never asked me out! Was badass.

I don't know this show at all. My compliments to the writers, they captured great and original moments here. I bet it was a joy for the actors.

She’s so beautiful!!!

I've always enjoyed Don/Sloan scenes, but never really thought of them as a 'THEM' together until this scene. I was totally hooked. Here you have two of the most interesting characters (both kind of awkward/outspoken/blunt in their own way) maybe at the very start of 'something' . There is some kind of crazy chemistry between the characters/actors. I like when Don said she had caught him off guard and then couldn't remember why he'd asked to talk to Jim. Both OM and TS really sold this scene.

I love that Sloan saw the good in Don!

Olivia Munn at her absolutely hottest ever!! WOW

The dynamic of them two was pure bliss seeing come together and watch. You never see it coming but their energy and IQ go hand and hand, and it’s beautiful.

But he didn't and doesn't love Maggie! He was in love with the IDEA of being in love with her but the number of times that they broke up should confirm that there's no true love between them, just mutual emotional deceit.

This was just too much truth for Don to take at this moment.

And we have here four unhappy people because no one wants to be honest about what they want and what they feel. I was really shocked when Sloan opened up to Don.

Wow! The simplest of moments (& words) can still have the most profound effect...at least on me..." just ("simply") ask them out" huh?...okay, you got it

She tells him it's a bad idea for him to be with Maggie, then chains him to it by publicly announcing that he's moving in with her - when he hadn't asked her yet. That really soured the touching reveal that she likes him.

Waw, that was powerful ... caught me off guard completely.

I wish they would have continued this series. Sloan love her!!!!

Olivia Munn was so good in this show. I never cared for her acting before this show, and yeah, I know she is really gorgeous.

I don't have HBO, but I do like what I see of the clips found on KZfaq. I realize it makes for good drama, but how anyone could ever pick Maggie over Sloan is just unfathomable.

She meant it. I didn't realize it till after the fact but the latest episode of season 2 pretty much proves she was dead serious.

"...when people think you're batty, you can learn a lot about them..." Laurel Holloman's line from the movie "Loving Jezebel" that seems so appropo in this clip. Sloan is smart. Very smart. People however think she's a flake because she's socially inept. She however comes up with some of the deepest observations about people she works with. She's the 2nd best character in this show (after Will McAvoy) and it's a crying shame that the show will end after this season....

Great scene. Happens more than one would think!

I so much wanted this to be one of his episodes where he sits back and Head-Over-Heals that chair betrays him

This role made me fall for her.

I had forgotten how gorgeous Olivia Munn was. My bad.

3:10-3:20 his facial and body language, his voice slightly catching there, were all just *perfect*.

I miss this show...I wish HBO would have had more seasons...

Aaron Rogers you were a fool to let Olivia go one in a million - Rare Diamond

the conversation is really interesting , never thought Don and Sloan could ,,,,,,,but better than Dan and Maggie

I would never feel intimidated by such an intelligent person. I wish my partner could be like that in the future. Genuinely smart without arrogance or narcissism.

here's the thing about well-written shows. they think the dialogue must be delivered at breakneck speed. It don't

The guy who likes the girl who the other guy is dating but might not like walks in right as the other girl tells the other guy she likes him. And then the guy stumbles over his words trying to be polite. I love how awkward Jim is.

Take the lesson from Olivia : "Good guys don't go with the hottest girl". But in that scene, hottest girl is also a genius and also romantic soooo... yeah, go with the hot girl.

This actress is insanely attractive. Love her voice!

Got some nerve to stand up like that, thanks for the video!

He is being harassed and bullied he needs to go to HR ASAP

...then why didn't you ask him out?

This was a way more interesting relationship than that blatant Jim and Pam rip-off or Will and Mac's constant yelling to make you think they have chemistry nonsense.

Just here to look at Olivia 🙂

3:15 “caught ya off-guard, didn’t I?” With a facial expression that subtly screams “hell no, this was no joke dude”

Olivia Munn is simply beautiful and crazy talented.

Really good writing

She said it in a tone that implied she thought people were dumb for thinking it because she thinks that they thinks borrowing more money is all there is to it when she knows it's not as simple as that

what a love story..... memorable.

That was intense. She is great.

Olivia Munn is my dream woman..And to see any man not ask her out knowing she likes you is beyond my understanding. The woman is a 11 out of 10. Fine all over.

The way he listend.... (and yes, the writing is superb) but his acting is CRAZY good too.

" Alot of men are intimidated by my intelligence ". 😅😅

Dating beautiful women is exhausting

"Well that's what a good guy would do" DAAAAAAAAYUM

I love many shows but I miss only two and the Newsroom is one of these.

this was such a moving scene. Despite the whole "tell don't show" mentality behind it, I think it really nailed what it needed to. Then, in the new season, Don says he "took it as a joke." Look at that face @ 3:15. He didn't take it as a joke. I can't decide if that's bad writing or really cool character development...

"You're not a bad guy." Attractive brunette on "The Newsroom" "You're not an asshole." Attractive brunette on "The Social Network"

That's why it's best to just never tell them

Now that was some painful delivery in the fast-talking part.

Cause and effect backwards there. The budget precedes the debt ceiling limit. Yes, of course the limit and the debt go up together--because when Congress decides to spend even more money, they have to authorize a debt ceiling increase afterwards to pay for it. If you want to stop government borrowing more money, you act on the budget. If you want government to borrow more money and then forget to pay money it already owes, you act on the debt ceiling. Simple.

she so nice

"No in fact we're going to live among the hill people"

Sloan, "because you never asked me out". Jim is unable to speak, because all the blood rushed from his big head...

This one and where Sloan tells him I love you..

I woulda locked the door, Pulled down the shades and swept everything on my desk of and....ahem...u know....oh yeah!

Love doesn't really like me that much, so I think I'll just get a dog and call it a life.

D: Its not a problem. S: Lets see what I can do about that

respect for munn work

Translation: "because I didn't have the guts to ask you out instead because I'm a coward girl."

Fuck, I miss this show

I'm here for olivia munn

Why didn't she ask HIM out?

you workin’ again, john?

Takes a lot to reply to that as honestly and sincerely as she did

The debt ceiling refers to how much debt can be issued and in no way affects "borrowing more money." Congress passes a budget, which is LAW, and in there details how much spending will take place, how much revenue will be raised to deal with it, and the difference being borrowed to cover it. The borrowing is set in stone then, a law that can only be changed by a new law. If the debt ceiling isn't raised, borrowing continues unabated, but to compensate the government defaults on old debt.

1st I did: she gladly passed 2nd: I concluded it was a waste of effort Looking back I think I was Right, would've gotten remodeled

This show pissed me off with this bullshit, These two should be together, they actually seem compatible and they're both good people. Maggie should have ended up alone, she's "commiting" to one guy and leading another on and sneaking kisses... Maggie was the actual bad guy in this group, closely followed by that guy she's teasing, they're both shitbags, he's leading Maggie's flatmate on, convincing her he's into her while secretly trying to get maggie to break up with this dude.

She has my heart

The take on this is she was testing too if she was right if he was a nice guy or not bye saying 'you never asked me out " too see what he would do too help him see if this was the right thing to do bye letting the woman move in with him too see if he had the Love and commitment for the other woman. All in all she was right he was a nice guy and was wrong about not having the Love for the woman.

..epic scene.. Sloan is such a queen ❤ but this Jim Don exchange makes me cringe every time.. and Jim's face when Sloan blurts out..'they're moving in' ..omg.. 🙈🔝good acting! all of them.

And have Jim to come in being akward at the end... lol

Someone told me I'm an asshole. They were right.

Had Jim not walked in just then, they totally would've kissed

..."because you never asked me out". What's the point on being in a relationship with a girl that aint brave enough to take responsibility for her feelings?

who would choose anyone else over olivia munn here. she's smokin

This is the best

@ 2:59 ................. Don Keefer: "Why are you single?" Sloan Sabbith: "A lot of men are intimidated by my intelligence." Don Keefer: "No, seriously?" nudist0885: "What, that's what makes me love a woman the most". If her intelligence terrifies me I'm hooked..................... Bo Derek, Julia Roberts, Alfre Woodard, Regina Taylor,

If I scan the barcode on the glass door, I wonder what product I'd buy?

No, we’re gonna live among The Hill People......,

Ridiculous conversation.
