“If You Want My Job, You’re Going To Have To Work On Your Typing.”
I’ve mentioned my love of the West Wing, I know I have. Just finished watching tonight’s episode, TIVO’ed.
Fucking thing makes me want to yell. It makes me smile. It makes me tear up and explode inside the way you do when you experience something beautiful. It makes me want to eat ice cream, which I did, two bowls, and that was my late dinner.
Now I admit, there was a bit of a dip after Aaron Sorkin was booted off the show, but they are back, baby. This season has brought us some top-quality stuff, and that means if the rest of television is Joel Schumacher, the West Wing at its worst is John Houston, Clint Eastwood, and Robert Altman in gift basket. This season is like that, in spades.
I cannot stress this enough: this show is inspiration. It makes me want to create; it makes me want to vote. I have to wonder if that’s their intention: make America feel passionate about what it is we do as Americans, regardless of your politics.
Fucking A. It’s five after one in the morning and there’s no way I can sleep now. Brilliant!!!

Have you seen Martin Sheen interviewed? He is passionate in his belief in ‘what we do as Americans regardless of our politics.’
