I showed up every week for Allison Janney. C.J. was the absolute best character and she earned every single one of those Emmys. Every. Single. One.

At first, you wonder how she even knew about that, and then you realize Josh must have brought it up himself at some point, which is both how she knew it and how she knew that it still bothers him after all this time. (Either that or Mandy told her.)

My absolute favorite is from Gone Quite one of the sub-plots is another candidate whiffed on the question "Why do you want to be president?" and the staff have been trying to come up with their response to that question and after several scenes throughout the show they get to the last scene and CJ asks the president and... well kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iaxkhqiD0ZnZdWQ.html

The worst thing about this show is that it made people think politicians are competent.

@Gumpster07 Жыл бұрын

I might agree with that but it also made people believe they SHOULD be competent too. Leaders and politicians like these lot (in fiction) should be our actual real world leaders inspiring us to do better everyday. But alas fiction will remain being fiction, and our real world leaders will continue being less than what they should be.

@Abmotsad Жыл бұрын

There's another myth this show made people believe: the never-ending-workday politician. I lived just a few blocks from the Capitol. When my wife would walk home from work, I would walk to meet her, and the halfway point just happened to be a the bottom of the east Capitol stairs. Let me tell you: at five o'clock, it looked liked that building was on fire. You had to stand off to the side to avoid being trampled by every level of politician and aide fleeing the grounds.
