Watch Oscar Winner Aaron Sorkin Beg for a Facebook Poke on 30 Rock

When Aaron Sorkin decided to adapt The Accidental Billionaires into The Social Network, he signed up for a Facebook account to research the social networking behemoth. Turns out that maybe things aren't going too well on that front, at least if Sorkin's incredibly meta appearance on 30 Rock is any indication. Dude just wants a poke! Ew, not like that -- on Facebook. Fine. Just click ahead to watch.

Bonus points for the obvious-yet-hilarious Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip gag, the walk-and-talk shot construction, and the grim-but-real discussion about how good screenwriting is a dying art form. (Later in this episode, there was a poster for Transformers 5, "written by no one.") Between this, Entourage and his cameo in The Social Network, can't someone just cast Sorkin as the lead in a Hollywood satire and get it over with?
