Wonder why they said that this is their first and ONLY baby? Does that mean that they cannot have any children at all now?

It makes me sad that so much of the forums were never archived. ::cries:: Thank you for the links. :)

I have a deep and abiding love for season six and seven, I love them as much as I love season one and two and four. For some reason, I am not as big a fan of season three as most are, in fact, I like season five more than season three because I love the entire Gaza storyline, and I love The Supremes and Shut Down. *ducking rotten tomatoes* :) It is true though. One thing I love about season three is The Butterball Hotline, so there is that! :) Season six gives us King Corn and 2162 votes, which are two of my favorite episodes of the entire series, and season seven is my favorite season of the entire series, except for Toby's storyline. I love Santos and Vinick, I love every scene that Leo and Annabeth have together, I love how Danny comes back into CJ's life and his whole spill about loving to listen to CJ talk, and that he just wants to hear her talk is about the most romantic thing ever. And then there is Josh and Donna, *sigh*....I love them so. The last four or five episodes of The West Wing is just simply perfection. :) I just get sad to see no love for five, six, and seven.

I love this bit from Let Bartlet Be Bartlet :) BARTLET Can we get this Godforsaken event over with so I can get back to presiding over a civilization gone to hell in a handcart? MRS. LANDINGHAM Nice talk for a President. BARTLET Leave me alone. They reach the second floor. MRS. LANDINGHAM You know what this is, don't you sir? BARTLET What what is? MRS. LANDINGHAM Your mood, sir. BARTLET There's nothing wrong with my mood. MRS. LANDINGHAM It's your diet. BARTLET Would you get off me with that? MRS. LANDINGHAM You're not getting enough roughage in your diet. You know I'm right about that. BARTLET I know I'd like to beat you senseless with a head of cabbage. I know that for damn sure. MRS. LANDINGHAM Once again, you display an immaturity about vegetables and I think is not at all Presidential. And this from 20 Hours in America: BARTLET Josh and Toby? Have they been sighted? SAM I talked to them a little ago, they're on there way. BARTLET 300 IQ points between them-- they can't find their way home. I swear to God, if Donna wasn't there, they'd have to buy a house. Hee! :)

I think that Donna was smart, a quick learner, and very intuitive. In The Stackhouse Filibuster, it was Donna that figured out that Stackhouse had a grandson that was autistic.

I think Josh during the entire Gaza arc when he was at Donna's bedside showed the vulnerability and the man underneath the bravado. We also first saw a glimpse of the real Josh in season one The Crackpots and These Women. He is fiercely loyal to those he loves. Edit: or what Deputy deputy cos said :)

Oh yay! A West Wing rewatch! I am totally down with that, it is my favorite TV show EVER, and never get tired of talking about its brilliance. I feel like I am amongst my people! :) I love the pilot, mainly because of the brilliantly witty lines from Leo McGarry. I love everything he says as he walks and talks his way through the West Wing starting with: MIKE It's a nice morning, Mr. McGarry. LEO We'll take care of that in a hurry. Won't we, Mike? MIKE Yes, sir. Then his first scene with Donna: DONNA I heard it's broken. LEO You heard wrong. DONNA I heard-- LEO It's a mild sprain. He'll be back later today. DONNA And what was the cause of the accident? LEO What are you, from State Farm? Go. Do a job, would ya? DONNA I'm just... LEO He was swerving to avoid a tree. DONNA And what happened? LEO He was unsuccessful. Then this little bit with Josh: JOSH We need Al Caldwell. We want Al Caldwell. We do not need John Van Dyke. And we do not need Mary Marsh. LEO And I think there shouldn't be instant replay in football, but that' s not my call, now, is it? JOSH [stops walking, while Leo continues on] It was stupid. LEO Damn straight. JOSH I was right, though. LEO [talking to himself] Like I don't know that. This with Mrs. Landingham: MRS. LANDINGHAM Oh, Mr. McGarry. Have they done an X-Ray? LEO Yup. MRS. LANDINGHAM Is anything broken? LEO A $4,000 Lynex Titanium touring bike that I swore I'd never lend anyone. MRS. LANDINGHAM [following Leo into the OVAL OFFICE] I don't understand. How did he...? LEO He's a klutz, Mrs. Landingham. Your President's a geek. MRS. LANDINGHAM Mr. McGarry, you know how I feel about that kind of talk in the Oval Office. LEO I apologize. MRS. LANDINGHAM Just in this room, Mr. McGarry. That's all I'm asking. This with CJ: C.J. Is there anything I can say, other than the President rode his bicycle into a tree? LEO He hopes never to do it again. C.J. Seriously. They're laughing pretty hard. LEO He rode his bicycle into a tree, C.J.. What do you want me to -- 'The President, while riding a bicycle on his vacation in Jackson Hole, came to a sudden arboreal stop' -- What do you want from me? C.J. A little love, Leo. Squeee! I adore Leo, and if I already didn't love The Pilot, I would love it even more for the best entrance of a new character on a TV show ever! PRESIDENT JED BARTLET "I am the Lord your God. Thou shalt worship no other God before me." Boy, those were the days, huh? :) Edit: Is there anyway of accessing the content of the old TWOP West Wing forums or has that ship already sailed? I would love to read them again.
