Alan Ball (creator of the Emmy(R)-winning HBO series "Six Feet Under") created and executive produces the show, which is based on the bestselling Sookie Stackhouse novels by Charlaine Harris.
THE NEWSROOM follows at 10 p.m. ET/PT with "5/1."

When news breaks that the President will be making a televised speech that night, the 2.0 staff cuts short its one-year (and oneweek) anniversary party, and rushes back to the newsroom amidst a flurry of speculation as to what exactly happened.
