Great packaging for a great series the one thing I would change would be a better listing of episodes. I lost the book somewhere in the vortex of my messy apartment, so now I just have to guess at where my favorite episodes are.
The West Wing - The Complete Series A mighty well done to cast and writers and the direction and production of this fine public service and rare superbly entertaining series.
This is a wonderful compilation of one of the finest series on the American Political system that I have ever had the pleasure of watching. The complete series viewed on a multi disk player makes the experience even more rich than it is without the interruptions of commercials or changing disk. [or turning them over over as with the original dual sided disks.] The quick repartee, the dry wit and inside humor is delivered as sharp as it was written and equally improved by the ad libs that made there way into production. I have bought and given away copies of this series to several and am continually please as how it repeatedly portrays that which we see in the current political arena.
Following the birth and passing of an administration with all of it's internal crisis, personal sacrifices, daily humors and tragedies are a real insight into why men and women who enter the offices as middle aged adults, leave gray and weathered.
Best written show -- ever! The West Wing has to be the best written show for television ever. Not to mention the stellar acting and directing done consistently throughout the series. This unparalled quality endures the times with great story lines and character development that are rich with detail and ripe with irony. I recomment this DVD collection to the die-hard fan as well as to the uninitiated.
Timely, prophetic, entertaining This is one of the best series ever. While watching the episodes I am continually amazed at how prophetic Sorkin and team were in their plots.
Great deal for a great series If you cried when the series ended its TV run, you'll love this boxed set. In addition to the shows themselves, it has many "extras", such as behind the scenes interviews.
