“I don’t know if I’m the biggest West Wing fan, but I can tell you there’s nothing I don’t love about the shows and all of the characters. I watched the show or taped them on my VCR, if I had to work. I bought the DVD boxed set when it was released and watched the entire series once or twice a year. And when it arrived on Netflix, I started watching the entire series every summer...sometimes twice. There will never be another show with that caliber of writing and acting, and casting. There wasn’t a single awful scene...in my opinion. I laugh. I cry. And now I say the lines in my head before they happen. There is something in every episode that makes me say...I love this part, line or scene.
I downloaded the HBO+ app, just to watch the West Wing special event. Like so many people, including all of you, I’m sure, miss John Spencer terribly, but Sterling K. Brown really did him proud.
So here’s where I might be the biggest fan or maybe the sappiest fan...I got teary eyed when the hbo special opened and I saw you all together again. I was overwhelmed with the emotion of the feeling of comfort that show has given me. It was beautifully shot, and executed perfectly. And I enjoyed the B/W behind the scenes footage as much as I loved the show.
And to now listen to your podcast episode with Aaron Sorkin, has made me love the show even more.
Anyway, thank you for all the thousands of hours you all gave to that show over the years. ❤️”
