West Wing 12/11
The episode just started over here in CA and I'm glad to know that Joshua Malina was included in the opening credits. Yes!

I thought this was an excellent episode!! 
Glad to see Zoe back, and she looks even better
Looks like they're gonna have to deal with the assassination starting in January.
I really enjoyed the end with the Whiffenpoofs singing.

Excellent episode. Great to see Danny back, hopefully he'll be around for awhile. Did we ever get a story behind Charlie and Zoey on why and when they broke up? It seems to me that one epsiode they were together and then no Zoey until now.
Shawn TWW is not available in R1 on DVD (I think it is available in R2, someone will correct me if I am wrong )

Yep. Great Ep. Sooo much stuff going on. Danny's back and knows about the assasination of Shareef, Zoey's back with a new bf and Charlie ain't too happy about it, Josh finally dealing with his feelings for Donna and Will flaming out badly in front of the president.

Fantastic episode. The whole Cole Porter/Whiffenpoofs thing with Toby and his father was wonderfully done.
I swear, I'd donate money to finance The Dulé Hill Show.
It's interesting how Sorkin continually returns to the subject of fathers and sons. In A Few Good Men, Kaffee's father's celebrity haunts him throughout the story and triggers a breakdown. In just 2 seasons of SportsNight, we have the affair thing with Jeremy's father, the embarrassment thing with Casey's father and in turn to his son, and a whole host of problems between Dan and his father. Now on The West Wing, Jeremy's father became Sam's father, Bartlett has acceptance issues with his father, and now this new Toby storyline. Gotta wonder if Sorkin isn't working out some issues of his own.

Also, this episode was great and totally unrelated to the story, since that has been touched on, Zoey =

• Quoth huzefa •<HR SIZE=1>Is Sorkin about to bring back the entire Sports Night cast one by one? I hope he finds a spot for Felicity Huffman. <HR SIZE=1>
Been there ... done that.

I could do for Kim coming over to WW!!
Anywho, great to see Josua Malina in the opening credits. And another fine episode by AS Inc., great personal stories going on in this episode and the musical montage which excuted correctly (and it is) is a great thing.
I don't know so much about continuing on with Zoe....that story never went anywhere, and with her and charlie not together, what's the point. Not that I mind Zoe...
But with super reporter Danny back on the case it looks like we'll have some explosive episodes for Feb. sweeps.

"knows a guy who couldn't get to his locker..."
Oh man! Can't wait to see how they're going to deal with the Shareef's assasination coming back from the dead.
Charlie, in his limited time onscreen nails his lines everytime too. Great stuff.

the first thing that popped in my head was, "what is rob lowe still doing in the credits?" is he gone or isn't he? once again, AS and co. save the best episode for christmas. they have a knack for doing that. it was absolutely great to see danny back and will be nice to see the repurcussions from his digging in bermuda. as for zoe, she looked good but i prefer the red hair. somehow i don't think that she will be back much but i hope to be wrong. i hope that the scenes with josh and donna might starte those two down the road to something although i am not expecting very much. anyway, now we have to wait for a few weeks for the next show. darn.

Anything that brings a little of the ol' Sports Night magic to any other TV show is fine with me. I just wish Sabrina Lloyd wasn't going to be on Ed so they could use her on West Wing.
