Aaron Sorkin had a pretty impressive Broadway debut 18 years back with ``A Few Good Men,'' before heading off to Hollywood and making great television with ``The West Wing.'' He returns with ``The Farnsworth Invention,'' at the Music Box Theatre, an odd duck of a play about ... television. Odd because it mostly defies the conventions of play writing, which ticked off some critics.

That, I think, is the point a lot of the reviews missed; the play at least tries to do something fairly original. Some critics who have found fault have done so through, how shall we say, a "conventional" prism. It is ever thus for those who try something different.
