DISQUS

Although the scriptwriting of The West Wing has slipped the past two seasons, it still ranks as one of the most engaging shows on TV.

This past season, the show definitely missed the interplay of the core group of original characters - one died, another left, and others assumed new jobs outside of the White House. But it still succeeded by giving a nuanced and intelligent look at presidential campaigns, as two ideologues fought for President Bartlet's chair.

A show like this give me hope in a world of "American Idol."

OK let's hear it from a woman. I think the show is better this season than it has been for a long time and Marty K - it's because of the personal stuff - sorry. I too dropped out but I'm so glad I dropped in again. I'm hoping, like those eternal optimist that every time they see Gone With the Wind, Rhett will somehow turn around and not leave Scarlett - that the show will be picked up again. We have a nice new administraton all in place - Jimmy Smits and Alan Alda - what's not to love?
