sigh!
I will tell you not to expect The West Wing. I think that may have been part of your problem with Sports Night. Studio 60 is good but it's nowhere near West Wing level.
I personally think Sports Night was one of the very best things on television during it's time. It was my introduction to Joshua Malina, Peter Krause and Felicity Huffman. Loved all them in it. Also, Lisa Edelstein played a bit part in a couple of episodes.
I think with the exception of Frasier you and I could never get together and watch anything but drama. We tend to be quite different in our likes of comedy.
