"The West Wing" was created by the immensely talented Aaron Sorkin and ran on NBC for seven wonderful seasons.
The writing was superb and the cast equally great.
If you enjoy political dramas dealing with complex issues, hot topics, and human drama, then this excellent series is your baby. |

________________________________
You are so right about this series, Mike! I've watched it all the way through . . . twice!
I even like the Good RX commercials with Martin Sheen! In fact, Good RX has saved me a lot of money on my prescriptions.
By gum, I think I'll start watching the series again from Netflix streaming between now and election day — instead of subjecting myself to the unfortunate folks of the legitimate news media who valiantly keep reporting the sad news that our pathetic POTUS is a delusional moron who doesn't know his anal cavity from Carlsbad Caverns.
Hopefully the coming election will finally provide us with an intelligent and dignified Command in Chief like the one in this series — instead of our despicable Tweeter in Chief who's embarrassing our nation in the eyes of the whole world.
For the record, I hand-delivered my mail-in ballot to the Union County Bureau of Elections in North Carolina on Thursday so that I didn't risk (a) having it lost in the mail, or (b) standing in a long voting line and getting Covid-19 . . . like a certain idiot who tells his supports that they don't need to wear masks.
Please vote, guys. We need to drain the swamp for real this time . . .  _________________ ____________

If you don't watch the highly amusing video below at least three times in a row, you obviously have a sense of humor equal to that of a 300 year old sea turtle.
Folks, I'm nearing the end of the highly enjoyable "binge watching" of my The West Wing box set, and I'm already experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms from the diminishing number of "walking and talking" scenes this amazing series offers.
They're are amusing, dramatic, and a joy to behold. If you've never seen The West Wing (God forbid! ) — you need to pack up and go back to Russia, from which you were obviously sent to spy on America!
But if you are indeed a fellow "West Winger", watch this YouTube video and prepare to blow snot bubbles while you laugh your ass off!

I also highly recommend Sorkin's HBO TV show The News Room. It also has fabulous writing, directing, and a marvelous cast. |
