you've got to go through hell before you get to heaven...

* The West Wing is comfortable but I do miss what it once was very much.

* Jimmy Smits is good. He's always good. Always consistent. Always engaging. He's also hot in fatigues.

* Bartlett was dead on way back when. Josh doesn't want to be the guy. He wants to be the guy the guy leans on.

* Both the campaign and the Bartlett administration could use Sam. Oh, Sam.

* Is CJ the leak? Is it possible? She sure looks guilty. But I don't believe it. I don't want to believe it. But then it's possibly Toby and I don't want to believe that either. Who's Bartlett going to fire!?!? (Um. If you know? Don't tell me.)

* Janeane Garofolo was great. I like when Josh gets a swift kick in the ass. I loved his "ah ha" moment when he realizes she's the one he needs. It's all over his face. Always has been.

* The congressman's bed? AHAHAHAHAHAHA! He actually almost had me. I was thinking, "Yes! Yes! Yes!" But, truthfully, there's something incredibly charming about a married couple that breaks a bed. Even if it means Matt/Josh won't likely be canon.

* The campaign montage at the beginning was pure fun to watch. I liked the soundtrack and I enjoy watching Santos grow more and more comfortable in his role as candidate. It's a big change from last season.

* CJ is hot.


Off to NY straight from work tomorrow. It's Jewish holiday time. A lot of family. A lot of synagogue. This was also the trip leading into The Witching Hour. I am going to be very cranky when I show up at the office on Thursday. I'm a piss poor martyr. :)
