Hi there Louis (and anyone else!), I'm Paula and I'm a huge West Winger too. Great idea to set up this forum! I've just watched the Season 5 finale and have to say, compared to other season, on the whole this one was probably the weakest. I think that's a lot to do with Aaron Sorkin leaving. However. can't wait for Season 6 and have to stop myself looking up the episode guides! Good luck with the site!

Cheers,

Paula

Many Thanks for that paula its nice to have you here, i too am having a haerd time avoiding the episode guides - blast the internet lol - :o

Welcome,

Many Thanks,

Louis - xshockwavex

Hey, Louis....

Thanks for starting this site. I am an avid West Wing fan, and I enjoy talking about the show. I live on an island off of the coast of Maine and teach special education (life skills) to high school students with Autism, Down Syndrome, etc.

I find WW refreshing, given our current political realities in 2004.

I watch WW on Bravo, as well as on Wednesday evenings on NBC.


Stephen

sadly thats so true Stephen, however its good to have you here. :D

Hey Louis, Stephen and Paula -
I am Lia and I abosolutely love the West Wing. I got hitched during Season 4. It was hard for me to watch on Wednesday nights because I volunteered for a youth group at my church and didn't get home until it was half over or more. I resigned my position this year - one, i needed a break and two, to watch TWW!
This summer I purchased Seasons 1 and 2 on DVD. It was a good thing my husband worked - leaving at 4 or 5am and not getting home until 7pm or later- as I watched the eppies almost non-stop. I still managed to get the basic housework done - but I was absolutely hitched! My favorite episode is "In Excelsis Deo" - as Richard Schiff gave an outstanding performance. This was the first eppie that made me cry. I cry everytime I watch it. I also cried during "Two Cathedrals". I got Season 3 the day it was released in at Sams Club.
My hubby is a seasonal construction worker and just got laid off for the winter. He started watching season 1 a couple weeks ago right after I purchased Season 3. He stated to me that he was glad I didn't get him watching this summer otherwise he'd never have gone to work or he would have never slept! I waited - okay mostly waited - until my hubby caught up to me and we finished watching the last disc of Season 3 together. He watched "In Excelsis Deo" without me and I wish I would have been there as I wonder if he was as emotional as me. He was blown away at "Two Cathedrals" when Mrs. L passed away. I at least got to watch that on with him. It is really a great bonding experience for us.
I also picked up off of ebay - a set "For your consideration in all categories" - which has the first eppies of Season 4 and select other eppies from Season 4. In small print it states that those DVD's are not to be sold or given to anyone other than the recepient so I hope I am safe from the copyrite police! It was worth the purchase though!
We don't have cable or Satillite - so we watch it on network TV. I would love to watch the reruns cable. We may break down and get satillite this winter. Maybe?
I look forward to sharing our support of TWW with you all soon.
Peace! Lia

hey, my name is anne marie and i live in the UK, have loved the west wing right from the start, US politics is a lot more interesting than ours! Been on a few West Wing sites lookinig at season 6 spoilers, what happens to Charlie once he finishes college? And does Leo come back as COS or has CJ got the job indefinately?

Welcome aboard both you guys, its nice to have you here! :D

Hi there, my name's Dan and I've been into the West Wing since it first hit our TV screens in the UK. I spend time watching the show when I should be writing essays as I'm currently studying for a history degree and when I'm not doing that, I work for the Labour Party. Hope to really enjoy this forum - see you guys around I guess.

Welcome to the forums dan! - Its nice to have some real political minds aboard. hope you all enjoy your stay.

Louis ;)

I wouldn't call myself a 'real political mind,' but I'm sure I'll enjoy myself around here because it looks like my kind of place.

Thanks for a great site! I've been a WW fan since it first hit our screens in the UK. I recently went on a cruise around the carribean which had many american citizens.

When i was asked who was my favourite american president I had to reply Josiah Barlett - fortunatly the dinner guests were democrats and knew who I was refereing to!

Lol, a funny story lol... hope you enjoyed your trip and hope you enjoy your stay here with us as well. - Democrats or republicans, Labour or Conservative etc. lmao

Hiay, live in the UK also, love the West Wing since it first aired on Channel 4 here. Have just devoured the Season 4 DVD set I got for Christmas, can't wait for 5, guess I'm gonna have to though.

I know exatcly what you mean i cant wait for season 5 - hopefully we'll have it mid next year! - Nevertheless welcome to TheWestWing.tk :D

Hi all,
I'm Jim from the UK and both my wife and I are massive WW fans.

We finished Season 4 on DVD within a week of getting it from Amazon and have been frantically trying to get any news on when Season 5 will be released.

Never mind other sites with episode guides, SPOILER WARNING (I read in this forum that CJ is C.O.S!!!...is this true?....what happened to Leo?) END SPOILER

Please feed me any Season 5 & 6 highlights until I can get them on DVD...looks like it will be a long wait.

Thanks for a great way to discuss the best TV show in years (or is that ever!)

welcome to the forums m8... thanks for the compliments regarding the site.... (all of you) glad its suitable for you all.... -- working on an improved spoiler defense method as well ok... :D ;)

Hi I'm Keith from Scotland and have been a West Wing fan since it started. Downloaded some episodes of Series 6 over the internet and I think it looks great. Can't wait.

welcome to the forums m8, hope u enjoy ur stay here ;)

Hi - I'm Helen and a WW fan of course. I'm desperate for series V to be released on dvd. I live on the French/Swiss border so can't get it on TV here. I am English and knew nothing about \american politics before getting into TWW. Now I'm intrigued and almost conversant with my many American colleagues. Good luck with the site.

Hello all!

I'm Akemi, I'm from San Francisco, and am a huge fan of TWW! I stumbled upon these boards so I thought I'd check it out...I'm always looking for more people to talk with about the show!

I'm big into politics, writing and travelling, and I co-own Friends Boards (www.friends-boards.com)

Anyway, hello!

A

While I disagree with the friends plug there I would like to say that you seem like a nice addition to the fourm... Thank you for joining... have a great time.

Hi I'm Gazza from Wales and have been a west wing fan from the beginning, I have been downloading season 6 so far and I'm really enjoying it! Santos for pres!!!

welcome aboard both of you.... dont mind the firends plug too much.... try not to do it all over tho eh ;) :D

Hi guys

I'm Skywise from Wales and I've been into WW since Ep1 S1 hit the TV in the UK. I've just finished watching S5 on E4 and am desparately trying not to read any of the spoilers for series 6. I just have to ask though - its not true that Josh & Donna leave is it? If it is true then my life is not worth living :P

As for me - I'm a solicitor (otherwise known as a blood sucking leech) and I work in Wild West Wales.


Hey Gazza - whereabouts are you?

See ya

Sky

PS: How come this board is full of Brits? LOL

hi i just joined hope you dont mind.

i live in the UK just this minute finished watching the 4th series, i dont know what to do with myself now.

please please please tell me what skywise just said isnt true. josh is my fave character, i'll be gutted if he goes.

:)

p.s. cos us brits have taste?

lol - welcome aboard both of you... i hope you all enjoy your time here... anything you need just ask... ;)

Hi bookbag

I'm not 100% sure that that the gorgeous Josh does leave but I've heard rumours.. Maybe if we all think happy thoughts hard enough we can *make* it not be true.

*sits down in lotus position "ommming" loudly and thinking sunny thoughts*

Sky

SPOILER
i dont think josh does leave... if im right he goes to join the new presidential candidates team.... so maybe he might come back ;)

you realise that putting spoiler before it doesnt make it invisible to those who dont want to see it right?

maybe you could put it in the smallest font next time? only a suggestion... sorry if i'm being a whinge B)

i realised that im working on some new coding for the site for spoilers thought i might chance it however still unlucky so i had to change it to a red warning like before.

Nope that's not it... not even sure if it is true... :lol:

But welcome anyhow! :lol:

:shock: cheeky! :lol:

EH!? Cheeky? must be some english talk...

:: walks off mumbling about how the english should learn to speak english. ::

Nah really I'm messing with ya... all in good fun. :)

Hi everybody! I am rbgirl off of STV. Nice site

hey thier welcome to the forum... glad you like it hope you enjoy ur stay.
