I've been reading spoilers about the episode of The West Wing in which Leo dies and his funeral takes place. I think I'm going to be a whimpering wreck by the end of the episode. The damn spoilers are making me want to cry.
I can't imagine how it must have been for the actors to film those scenes, so soon after John Spencer's death. That's the awful thing, in the show it's Leo's death but it's really all about John Spencer. I don't know how Martin Sheen and the rest managed to keep from crying the whole time. Who knows, maybe they didn't. I know I'm certainly not going to be able.
I want to watch The West Wing, I want it to start up again after this break, I want to see the Josh/Donna-ness of the upcoming episode, I want to know who wins the election - but every episode is nearer to the one where Leo dies. And I think that's when it will really hit me that John Spencer is dead. And I don't want that.
