The best TV- EVER

.
From 7 to 9 am on weekdays there's a great opportunity to learn about how politics, albeit liberal politics I admit, is conducted here in the US. Politics is on display and it's great TV and a political science lesson all wrapped up in great writing and great acting.

The West Wing was on for seven seasons. I think it took a bit of a nose dive in the 6th but was otherwise the best TV show I've ever seen. Consistently gripping, engaging and apparently real, I was and am a big fan.

This morning President Bartlett debated Governor Ritchie from Florida and knocked his socks off. Check it out if you had the great misfortune to miss it the first time around. Or-if you're a long time fan, get jazzed all over again.

Bravo, Channel 62, airs it every weekday. They're on their 5th or 6th cycle of running all the shows in order. At 9:01 I get a little sad that there's no more West Wing till tomorrow.
