The West Wing

As a self confessed West Wing fan - hey I have quotes pinned up by my desk at work - I am unhappy that I am not in the US this weekend to see the show run it out.

Although I have not seen the show for a while, given that I don't have digital cable at home, I will be ordering the complete DVD set when it becomes available on DVD.

To close on this topic, I think JFK's quote of 'ask not what your country can do for you, but rather what you can do for your country' is appropriate. It is certainly a message that has driven my wish to do public service and help create a slightly better community.

I don't buy in to the hype that the West Wing changed things, but it certainly did appeal to people - Dem or Republican - who were in to intelligent TV shows.

I have heard some things about the ABC show 'Commander in Chief,' but don't know what to make of it as I have not yet seen it.
