Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip

Earlier I wrote about the fact that it appeared that the character of Los Angeles Times reporter Martha Moyer (based on Sorkin ex-girlfriend Maureen Dowd) was rumored to be no longer a character appearing in the pilot. While this remains true, it appears that the character of Martha Moyer is essentially remaining, but she is now named Karen (Last Named Unknown.) Whether she's a reporter is unknown, since the sides in which her name appears don't include references to her job. But judging by the sides, Karen is, essentially, Martha. They have the same lines and are in the same situation as Martha was (At the Writer's Guild Awards with Matt and Danny as Danny's date and questioning Matt as to what happened with him and Harriet)

So, it looks like instead of the character missing, we merely have the fourth significant name change on the show. Following UBS to NBS, Jamie McDeere to Jordan McDeere and Danny Moore to Danny Tripp. How do you feel about this one?
