WEE have very much been enjoying the election episodes of the West Wing over the last few weeks. WEE have to admit that after the beginning of the second season WEE lost a little bit of interest in the West Wing.
Part of it was to do with the plot and part of it was to do with the fact that the Nine Network kept you up to almost midnight to get a fix of West Wing. WEE are pleased that the series has moved across to the ABC and that you can watch the series ad free and over two episodes per evening. That is all very civilised.
Even better, WEE are finding the episodes surrounding the presidential election most interesting and compelling. The series really does feel back to form and next week’s bombshell of Leo dying should be one not to miss. [more]
The cast is performing well, despite the sad loss of John Spencer (Leo McGarry), whose character makes a posthumous exit (WEE think) next week.
WEE wait in anticipation of the outcome of the ‘presidential election’ and suspect that Santo will win, although perhaps the writers would enjoy the challenge of writing a republican white house? Although we suspect they wouldn’t be able to top the antics of the actual current incumbent!
Yes, WEE know we could get on the web and find out what happens but WEE like suspense, so no comments on the outcome of the election please!
So, if you haven’t had a look at the West Wing for a while, have a look again next week.
