the west wing 3/27
 

finally a new west wing :) this had maybe one of the funniest subplots in the history of the show with josh vs. www.lemon/lyman.com. the conclusion where cj let him have it was really funny.

i don't know that i was too interested in the whole poet laureute subplot. it just kinda seemed to me that this was one of AS's pet projects that he wanted to get in there rather then a legit story. also it was good to see cj vs. the press corps for 4 days about the president's 'slip up'.

one bad thing is that i wish that they would have more of charlie. every since the quit putting zoe on, his screen time has gone down alot. :(

the poet subplot was kind of lame, but wasn't she from jurassic park? I agree it was just AS pushing his political agenda
I realize this show will have a lot of democrat positions but I didn't like the way this one was shoved down or throat

the ending with CJ and the pres was interesting

charlie rules, we nee dmore charlie

and cj said 'old skool'
wonder if it was broadcast in Australia, and if so did desmond see it http://www.dvdtalk.com/forum/showthr...hreadid=195294

from the preview

I watched the trailer and it didn't say anything about that. All it said was that .

actually IIRC, tim matheson was getting his own show somewhere but i can't remember if it was a midseason this year or for next year.

I dunno, I interpreted it the same way as mikehunt: We'll see, of course...

I really liked the Poet Laureate plot -- it struck me less as a preachy thing, and more like a chance for Toby to have a nice romantic moment with a good actress. Besides, the President's position of not signing the land mine treaty made the most sense, so if anything, the episode was fairly moderate on the land mines.

If they were liberal tonight, it was more on the Alaskan pipeline stuff...

But they were pretty conservative about not wanting to deal with the Middle East anymore. You'd never have heard Clinton talk like that.

Well I think the overall US view of the Middle East has changed quite substantially since Clinton left office.

Good episode. Good to see an appearance from Ainsley. I loved Sam's comment: "Ainsley Hayes...She's just to the right of the Kaiser."

The lemon-Lyman stuff was hilarious.

Great ending with CJ and the Pres.

I liked this subplot too. Although I may have seen some extra humor in it as well, because it reminded me of Jay and Silent Bob responding to their "fans" on moviepoopshoot.com

One question though, why couldn't Josh type his own post? Is his just supposed to be computer illiterate?

that was great!! and I love it from my point of view, since I guess most of us in dvdtalk would be considered a fanatic like the ones mentioned

yep.. this is exactly how I saw it as well :up:

I was hoping for some sort of quick Jurassic Park joke to come in, since she was in JP1 and the guy who plays Toby was in JP 2. But alas, not even a republican dinosaur joke.

I agree they need to increase Charlie's screen time, he's one of the best characters on the show.

The President sure is a sly one. I loved that he did the whole "slip up" on purpose.

I guess we'll have to stay tuned.

Ainsley Hayes (Emily Procter) is going to be part of the cast of csi: mami.

Damn! I was hoping Ainsley would become a regular cast member. I guess she'll be gone for good :(

What a great episode. I love this show.

wow, i am surprised that cbs is already getting a spinoff of csi this early in its run. usually doesn't it take a few seasons to get a spin off? i will definately miss ainsley but maybe this will give AS an opportunity to get sam back together with mallory. :)
