So people who are close to me know that I am officially in love with the show The West Wing. Yes I know the show changes after Aaron Sorkin leaves, but hey give this naive girl her moment to wax on after just completing Season 1. For sure this series has saved me from going totally crazy during the hard moments Cairo throws at me.
I have to say, this Aaron Sorkin guy, he is something! To know that he is also responsible for A Few Good Men and The American President only solidifies my understanding of why I'm so in love with this show. Check him out here, back in 2000, describing how he came up with this show: http://www.pbs.org/newshour/media/west_wing/sorkin.html.
Then there's this great article about how the show has had significance in our most recent election: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/30/arts/television/30wing.html?em.
I'm totally excited to start Season 2!
