Absolutely loved this.

It dropped off a little after season four but I really enjoyed the Santos stuff (especially season seven).

There had always been great TV but I think this show was the one that really kick started a movement that saw TV surpass movies.

I rewatched seasons 6 and 7 last year throughout the election cycle. It was a wonderful antidote to reality.

West Wing, there will never be a better political series than this one. Never missed an episode, even though I had to VCR record because I was working a 2nd shift job at the time. I learned more about our government from this program than I did from any civics class. So sorry to see it go, but it had a good run & I think it was best to stop before it could go downhill, which happens sometimes when series go on "to long". It is on Netflix.

THE WEST WING was an excellent TV series, but I just wish it had covered the entire eight years of the Bartlet government, rather than just seven. I saw only the odd episode here and there when it was on TV, so I went out and bought the box set and watched the entire TV series in approximately a fortnight. What a rush that was...

My single favourite episode is still THE STACKHOUSE FILIBUSTER from season two.

I remember that like it was yesterday. Nothing else to say except excellent writing, excellent acting,
excellent TV drama. The best there ever was. Such a great show. Thanks for posting that...:emoji_ok_hand:
