Why this must be read: One of the most striking things about
Sports Night is the relationships – the deep fondness that the characters have for one another, the way that, snarky though they may be, every one of them supports and protects the others. Whether it's Dan and Casey, Natalie and Dana, Isaac and … well, everyone; whether you look for slash subtext or whether you don't, the deep, abiding love is there, and it's undeniable.
This is a gen piece, humorous in parts, serious in others, and the gifts that Casey gives to Dan are, by turns, thoughtful, generous, gently malicious, selfless, understanding and supportive. You could say the same about the characters themselves.
