West Wing

[learnedax]

So rufinia lent tpau the first season of West Wing, and I have now seen my first half dozen episodes of the show. It's quite good. (Which I'm sure no one has noticed before.) I guess in the past 5ish years that I haven't watched programming from the big three networks I was missing at least one decent show. Bearing in mind that it's only the first season, but that it gets off to a strong start, I would put it on par with The Sopranos. Not the best show of all time, but quite well written.

mermaidlady and I are big fans of the show. THe first season is good; the second through fourth seasons are really outstanding.

The show really hits stride in the second and third seasons. The fourth season doesn't suck, either.

I love the first two seasons best (I'm annoyed by one character in the first season). 2 is amazing. Starting in season 4 it takes a rapid ride downhill...

(In my opinion after Aaron Sorkin leaves the writing goes to hell, so now we can barely watch it, even though I'm still very enamored of the characters)
