Wednesday, July 24, 2002 Glory days, fade away So, adios, Rob Lowe. Man, that's EXACTLY what the show needed. I got into West Wing at the beginning of the second season, catching up on the first season via Em's tapes. And god, I was flabbergasted. Politics COMBINED with the genuine need to do good things. I'm a bit infatuated with politics (do NOT ask me how many times I've watched Primary Colors) and that's exactly what I'm fascinated by - the idealism that leads people to think, I am doing good things when I compromise just this little bit... I don't cry at the end of episodes anymore. And I'll be the first to help point out the show's flaws, especially this season. But I'm still sad over this. I like Sam Seaborn a great deal. He does good things. And only compromises a little bit. | permalink blog • archives • photos • about • contact This work is licensed under a Creative Commons License. All content © 2004.
