West Wing Night

We are currently watching "West Wing", season 2. Now, this is the third time in as many years that we are working are way through the entire 7 series. I have to wonder whether it says something about us or something about the state of current television that I still believe that the West Wing is the best thing I can watch at the moment. It is humorous, it is philosophical, it tackles hard subjects, and it is pacy. The characters make you bond to them. Everything about it screams at you that this is a classic. Everyone should watch it - they will understand more about politics, they will understand more about how the world works, and they will laugh while doing so.
