Is anyone else a fan of The West Wing? It took a while to get into it because I had no idea how American politics works but I have since become a huge fan. Leo is brilliant and Margaret makes me howl with laughter.
fatty.
It's superb stuff, really superb. The dialogue is very stylised but that adds to the appeal of it in some ways. I enjoy it a lot.
I wish Channel 4 would hurry up and start showing season four though.
I only watched a few episodes of this show when Matthew Perry was a guest... otherwise, I can't sit through hour-long shows because I get bored after half an hour.
Matt Perry was in Series 5 I believe.
We've got the first 3 series on DVD in Newcastle, what a superb show!! I didn't really get into it until I'd seen a few episodes back to back, and now I'm an absolute addict. It's so well written, could well be the best thing on tv, and Bradley Whitford is a revelation as Josh! The number of Josh moments that make me howl with laughter are too many to name!
speaking of Josh
think he and Donna will ever actually hook up???
the only time this show gets on my nerves a bit is when it becomes a bit too preachy with the script--
It's fantastic! I LOVE Martin Sheen - I love all the characters, especially Donna and Margaret and, when she was alive, Mrs Landingham. Top secretaries!!! I actually cried at the episode where it was her funeral, when she came back to the President in the Oval Office.
I'm pining for the third series to start here. It's been too long.
The third series is excellent, by the way.
No, I don't think Josh and Donna will ever hook up, although maybe in series 8 when they run out of ideas. Josh should get his own spin-off show, and they should call it#
Josh Lyman: King of the Universe.
It would work, I'm telling you, there's nothing that man can't do!
he's been slapped down a few times on the show-
i figure they will hook up sooner or later
last commercial clip for the season ender --was him demanding to know where she was (hosptial of course) and stopping at nothing to get to her...
made me feel all veklempt.....
