ITT we talk about "The West Wing"

[Hank Rearden]

I just watched the finale of the second season where Bartlet just revealed his MS.  I think that scene is really cool when he is standing on the podium and ignores the softball question reporter that CJ had planted.

I think that's actually my favorite West Wing scene.  And Two Cathedrals is one of my favorite episodes.  And this is my favorite thread.

A more republican thread than the Libertarian LSD.

That was an excellent episode, but it was kind of sucky for Ms. Landingham to die.  They needed it for the plot I suppose, but it felt cheap and melodramatic.

Am I the only one who really liked the last season? (and the last half of the 2nd to last season?)

Yeah Mrs. Landingham was a good character.  I always liked at the beginning of that last scene when Charlie takes his coat off after Bartlet doesn't put his on.

Some of those campaign trail episodes were really good.  None of the actual stuff in the West Wing itself though had the same crack as with Sorkin.  Everyone just seem depressed.

Interesting, I never noticed that.  I just like the hands-in-his-pockets thing.  How cool is that.

Still haven't seen the last three seasons, but I watched the last episode.  The last episode was alright - except I didn't appreciate the Josh and Donna thing.  And I didn't like how the last line was the last line from Bill Clinton's autobiography.  But the return of the napkin was cool.

Yeah, that was cool.  By the way, my friend and I always use variations of "Then god, Jed, I don't even want to know you."

I will try to work this into everyday conversation.

I still think the first season is the best overall.  Starting with the second season, I think they got too bogged down in these big story arcs (the MS, the election, etc).
