Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Two best years of an amazing series
This series is one of the shows that reminds me what I like about TV. The writing is excellent and the actors make the characters real. The characters actually seem like real people as opposed to the two dimensional types on most shows. I learned to love Sorkin's style on Sports Night and appreciate it even more with the material that the West Wing provides him.
Rating: - The Way It Ought To Be
This is a delightful show that makes you think you could actually vote Democrat if the right candidate came along. The days of JFK are gone, but this show makes you genuinely care about the Bartlet Administration, even if you don't care for the real life politics of Martin Sheen. Aaron Sorkin deserves the praise that is lavished on him for his writing. This is an intelligently written show with lots of wit, humor, drama, and political brinkmanship. The show seems credible, and really makes you feel ... Read More
Rating:  - Some of the Best TV this reviewer has seen, & I've seen lots
Every episode is written with such eloquence, wit, and is of such a high standard, one can barely believe its been written for television. The acting is profoundly moving - the cast unforgettable. Meanwhile the set design, cinematography and lighting could easily be mistaken to be that of a feature film.
Season 1 and 2 earned 17 Emmies between them, and won countless other prestigious TV industry awards.
Easily some of the best and most enjoyable television ever created. And ... Read More
Rating: - By far one of the greatest shows on television
THe intricacies of plot, depth of the characters, and unrivaled dialogue make this one of the high water marks in network television history. FOr fans of drama (although there is a great comic undertone to some episodes) this show is a must have.
Rating: - Excellent Episodes. Not so great extras
The DVD version of this series is dangerous because the story arch is so compelling you'll find yourself sitting and watching episode after episode unable to stop just to see what happens next. If you've already seen the shows you'll watch them in great anticipation of those dynamic character moments contained in each episode (Yo-Yo Ma at the White House, sparing between the Bartletts, the moment when Donna learns of the President's medical condition). It's incredibly enjoyable to spend time with these ... Read More
