and so it begins
despite having told ourselves we would watch The American President to kick it off, we couldn't wait.
so last night we commenced our West Wing orgy - 3 episodes only, because perlmonger was knackered, and oh - I'd forgotten just how fresh and wonderful it was. I think it was codepope who first alerted us to it.
so - just for me, and behind a cut just in case it would be a spoiler for someone -
series 1, episodes 1-3.
POTUS falls off his bicycle, CJ falls off her running machine, Sam gets involved with a hooker call girl, Josh insults a member of the Xians (well *done*, Josh), Charlie gets hired after probably the first Bartlett moment, JB manages to be incredibly rude to the Xians (well *done*, JB), Mandy gets hired, we get our first glimpse of Hoynes being Hoynes, and trounced by Leo, JB "hires" Captain Doctor Tolliver who, inevitably, meets a sticky end in a bombed aircraft, thus resulting in JB's first military thing, which very nearly goes horribly wrong. Enter also the wonderful Fitz, and Mrs Landingham (who both will be gone later), and Mallory, and Donna.
and I'm already going to feel very odd for the last episodes of series 7, with no Leo :(
oh, it's so *good* - want to watch more *right now*.
