I'm a Big "West Wing" fan. Huge. It's almost geeky how much I love this show. I don't have a problem with the series coming to and end, much to the surprise of several of my friends--I'd rather see the show end well than go on badly. When Aaron Sorkin left the show, it looked like the series just might go bad before its expiration date; but the show has spent the better part of two seasons on the finale, and there's a lot of good you can do with a drawn-out ending like that. Of the things I like best on "The West Wing" are the attention to detail in the function of government (although there have been Internet debates over the accuracy of the show's interpretation of the White House, Congress, Secret Service) and, more than anything, some of the best dialogue EVER written. The actors--all of them--play this dialogue so well that it doesn't even seem written, it just seems to flow out of them. I only have the first two seasons on DVD, but that will change over time.
For those who follow the show closely: yes, I want Santos to win; no, I really don't care if Josh and Donna hook up; no, I don't think Toby really did it; and I'd like to see them bring Sam Seaborn back to take Leo's spot on the ticket (but I don't know if his character's old enough). That sound geeky enough for everybody?
