He also looks just like Wilfred Brambell, and Miranda Sawyer is hot. He's not very funny in Burke and Hare, but no one is.

Second papa, Todd; Write?

Hey!
As one of the only programs that hits the AV at the same time it goes out on BBC2 I can for once comment having seen something.

She was fine in American Pie 3.

There is very little difference between Tim in the opening minute of the first episode and Tim in the last minute of the last episode. They learn nothing, really.

Sometimes it's the principal, and free publicity, that count.

In the UK the distributors successfully argued the film down from a 15 to a 12A, with the phrase "educational value" being used.

Suburban mom/dad sells weed/meth to pay for mortgage/medical care. But one is a comedy (?!) the other is a drama (!?) though both play with the conventions, and the lead actors won the best actor/actress Emmy in their first season. They both have audiences roughly equal to 0.05% of the USA, and both play on basic

I haven't seen the finale yet, but I've really enjoyed the other 12 episodes, and thought that losing Celia made sense and reducing Doug's role was a good move. As for looking back; MLP beat all four female leads of Desperate Housewives for the Emmy after the first series of Weeds, and at the end of last series I

The whole "there has never been a rainstorm in DC this bad in the history of time" preface is either a big hand wave, or a massive commentary on the whole "it was a dark and stormy night" thing.

The Butterball scene is the highlight of season 3.

The nice touch at the end of 3/beginning of 4 when Charlie pushes so hard for Fiderer to get hired, and the moment when Bartlet finally agrees is a nice development for Charlie.

I thought he did the job OK. And given the daddy issues that keep Bartlet awake in season three it's nice to have a face for the name.

The point of the West Wing was that Bush never happened, so for it to stoop to real life events in such a clumsy way is a real disappointment. They did an analogue of it, with Qumar, but otherwise the West Wing was twenty times better than the real West Wing at the time. I&I betrays that.

As the series goes on and each role gets an actor then their pictures appear on the Oval office desk, Ellie appears after Ellie, Zoey and Abbey are there, then we get Lawrence O'Donnell, Jr and in season 5 we get a picture of Annabeth Gish. And post-2C there is a picture of Dorothy.

A tiny spoiler;
She started answering calls for Josh and under Josh that is where she stayed, and that is the motivation for her leaving; she knows he can never give her more (not even a title bump) and after getting injured in season 6 she leaves. Irony being that by that point the Bartlet white house was missing a

You can't really drop it altogether, but as next week is the end of 2, and I&I doesn't fit with anything in 3, then it makes sense to wait a couple of weeks and do it as a special, and possibly tie it into the anniversary of 9/11. Also re:Ginger (and Bonnie, and Nancy and the rest) by season four you get used to Toby

Having re-watched season 2 (then gone on to 3 and finished 4 yesterday), the Sagittarius meetings with Joey are fun (though Kenny does say his surname the first time he meets Josh).

I never got an answer on I&I…
…but let me suggest that you review it on 9/11, and then start season 3 next year. It makes more sense to tag it on the end of here, rather than at the beginning of 3. Also "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results" is an AA quote,

And the walls came tumbling down! I'm fine, by the way, thanks for asking.
