1984…are you serious? Damn I’m old; I had no idea it came out that long ago. Great thing is it’s just as entertaining today as it was when it released. Brilliant how Indiana Jones flicks can hold the test of time and, with the next installment, it’ll be like they never skipped a beat.

“The people I have met have been extraordinarily qualified. Their intent is good. Their commitment is true. They are righteous, and they are patriots.”
—Ainsley Hayes (“In This White House”)
The West Wing broke many of the rules of television. Discussing politics, morality, foreign policy and the world, political wrangling, real life issues, legislation and the creation of law, and real world problems. For seven years the staff of President Bartlett (Martin Sheen) raised debate and discussion in the country by presenting a view of government that was hard-working, knowledgeable, passionate, patriotic and smart. And, somehow, it made it all interesting, entertaining, and must-see TV.
The show was praised by former White House staffers in presenting the pace and challenge of the job. One of the trademarks of the show was the “walk-and-talks” which filmed the characters walking and talking through the halls of The West Wing They were simply too busy to sit down.
