"The Newsroom" is about to have its final season, and creator Aaron Sorkin has admitted to Entertainment Weekly that he is unsure about how he will end the hit HBO original series.
The TV drama, which revolves around a fictional cable news channel ACN, will start airing its last six episodes starting November 9.
When asked why "The Newsroom" final season was shortened to just six shows, Aaron Sorkin admitted that it was because of his schedule. However, he was quick to add that "six was the right number."
"I don't know what we would have done with a seventh episode," said Aaron Sorkin, who also created the hit White House series, "The West Wing".
"It's very compressed," Aaron Sorkin said about "The Newsroom" final season. "Once again, we're telling one story throughout the whole season, there are stories that come off like branches, but there's one story that we begin in the first episode and goes to the end."
Aaron Sorkin also described the show's final run as very "solid".
He told Entertainment Weekly: "I do feel it's a really solid season. I think we're wrapping up a lot of stories in a nice way."
"I miss everybody already but I'm in the editing room every day with the show so for me I don't have postpartum depression yet. But that will come, I promise," he admitted.
When asked by Entertainment Weekly if the ending was just as how he imagined it to be, Aaron Sorkin confessed: "For most of the time, I didn't know how the show was going to end. I would have small images of what I wanted to see."
He added though that the closer he got to the end of the season, in terms of writing, the more he was able to see the end of "The Newsroom" season finale.
"Once we got there, it happened more easily than I thought it was going to," Aaron Sorkin said.
