I have been a teacher for the past... 25 years of my life... I have been wrong, right, ashamed, proud, and more surprised or bored than anyone will ever be in any line of work ...CJ nailed it!!!

CJ's face when the president credited her! .... We all need it once in a while

"You said it right that time." was prefect.

I am so glad and proud that this show exited and still exists here. It is a reminder of who we are and who we can be. We simply need to listen to our better angels and let’s the truths we know and share ring out and help to make this a better world. Thank you for these clips. They are a reminder of what we can be.

Underrated moment at the beginning talking about the composer. Bartlet was in the car on the way to the show yammering about how it isn’t quite classical music if the guy was rewriting it the day of the performance. He didn’t think he could be wowed, but he was.

My favorite show used to be MASH but after The West Wing nothing else comes close. The intelligence and wit of the scripts, the consummate professionalism of the actors, it's almost to much to take in. I have the box set on DVDs and anytime I want a superior show to watch I'll binge a couple of seasons. My favorite episode was when CJ was writing a letter to her father while she was waiting on a floor vote that a Senator wanted funding in the bill for autism. His grandson was autistic and this elderly man put on a stunning display of endurance with a filibuster. Great episode.

Scenes like this is why this was the best show of all time (so far)

When I was being evaluated during student-teaching, a boy who was always surly and a problem raised his hand and acted so well! I was careful not to call on him, because I knew he didn’t know the answer to the questions I asked. It took so much bravery for him to raise his hand. I’ll always remember him! Later, when I had children I learned that kids his age squirm in their chair because they are growing so fast that it can hurt to be in their chairs, and I wonder about the teachers who hated that of me and my classmates.

that's why this show has been so great.

Such great writing, such fine acting and that fantastic background music score, how do they get it so right 😭

I wish we'd show this to kids im school. There's just so much to learn!

What an amazing program - one of the best ever presented.

Still in love with CJ.

Damn this series always gets me. How an American President should aim to be . Mistakes and all. Great writing.

Presidents who receive advice from competent, responsible, intelligent, informed, members of their staffs....and who LISTEN to, and act on that advice, make very GOOD presidents.........

It’s about going to the blackboard and raising your hand….that’s the broader thing.

The binging sound at 2:04 made me think I got a Facebook message.

0:29 is a letter to all the aspiring writers out there. Keep writing your stuff is good!

Poor CJ. It would be so hard but a joy working for a president like this.

That will do, indeed.

This was so nice.

How is this show so good?!

Beautiful scene, from the best TV show of all time! (just a note, - this scene is out of sync, picture lagging sound by a couple of frames - maybe the bounce off of Mars threw it off, Martian!)

anybody else move their mouse trying to get that hand cursor off the screen?

I am pretty sure CJ messed up her line... you raise your hand and then you go to the blackboard. But given the topic of the subject she was talking about, maybe it is good for aspiring actors to see a celebrity miss their line.

There's ice cream on the camera lens.

She got all puffed up

Nice try, Aaron Sorkin. You ALMOST got away with it. 😂 This dialog was lifted almost verbatim out of Atlas Shrugged (Richard Halley's fifth concerto). Which is REALLY weird that Sorkin would have known about it.

Some People have banned being surprised by anything or anyone anymore. The satirist Andy Borowitz's stuff is funny. We are openly told it is not real. I do not know if I can laff anymore. And If I can - when to laff. The delay in being told it is allegedly and supposedly a joke - they were ahem JOSHING - and we have no sense of humour stretches for years sometimes. 2 years again.

But Sorkin got it backwards - you raise your hand and then go to the blackboard. Oh well, his political bias limited him to painting with only half the color spectrum. He could have been great.
