Margaret is so loyal. Always so loyal.

Does anyone know if Janel Maloney is gone from the show or simply on recurring status? I'm not a Josh/Donna shipper but I sort of assume the show will end with them together. I mean...how could it not?

A bit of Charlie. Finally.

Leo would never sit and look at his watch while he's in view of cameras at a campaign speech. Never. He's too experienced and knows better. I don't buy it.

Josh's sunglasses are terrible.

Um. Yes. Still love me some Jimmy Smits.

Bartlett's really going grey. (And I notice the absence of Abby. I want Mrs. Bartlett back.)

Kate Harper is infinitely less annoying this season. She's toned down. Same with Annabeth.

To be honest, I'm done with Middle East peace as a theme on The West Wing but I'm glad that the final legacy isn't that peace is as easy as one Camp David summit in season 5.

"I need coffee. I'm going to freebase this stuff it that's what it takes to make life livable." I do love her in every possible sense.

"I'll be damned." I love that Santos continually surprises Josh. I wish he didn't have to but I do enjoy the look on Josh's face when it happens.

Bartlett doesn't believe in CJ, either. I really want to believe in CJ.

Leo asked Annabeth to dinner and she said no? Because of the tension? And Leo's clueless? (Well, to be honest, before the fabricated moment I was clueless, too. The last thing the show needs is a Leo/Annabeth tryst.)

Over the years, the West Wing has consistently incorporated live classical music performances into the show. It's been a nice addition.

TOBY! OH, TOBY! I had a feeling it was Toby but, while I really didn't want it to be CJ, I also didn't want it to be Toby. The original guard is falling apart. Richard Schiff can not leave this show no matter how much his role has been diminished. He's Toby. And all this time everyone doubted CJ and she didn't do it. Oh, Toby.


The cast of Roseanne is on Larry King right now. I'm so excited!
