Why make this?
Because 2020 has been a lot.

And so, revisiting them now helps me deal with this difficult year.

    I’m sorry no one has commented on this yet. I would like to say thank you. You put a lot of time, skill and love into this collection and it shows. It really is the simple things we do each day, the greetings we give our neighbors. I must hear the phrase You will know a Christian by their works and not their words at least two or three times a month. Their works, in this context, should have been translated as, How they are as a person, but instead it gets inferred as, what someone does, and that’s totally wrong. It’s been three years since you made these, how are you? How’s things going?

When it comes down to helping people I don't think there's anyone else on the show who cares more about the common man.

      Toby is well-played as a frustrated idealist. I think my favorite defining moment of his in the 1st season Christmas episode, when Pres. Bartlet asks him if he doesn't think every homeless veteran will "start coming out of the woodwork". His answer? "I can only hope so". What a great way to simply but concisely convey the depth of his feeling.

      Libby’s whole point is that WHO YOU are is WHAT YOU do. The test wasn’t do you care enough, the test was are you better as people and ideas to actually get the office and do the good things. Seriously, what’s more likely: that someone so flawed they’re willing to forsake every principle they have will still make the sacrifices necessary to do good? Or the more likely reality that you don’t aspire to such positions in the first place unless you’re someone unencumbered by principles and concern for others. Is there really anyone who wasn’t a complete narcissistic psychopath who could endure the constant criticism and scrutiny?

I feel like we have lost that with click bait media and everyone choosing sides. Most of the problems we face are things we all go through and we aren't going to fix them until we put petty tribal allegiances away and actually demand that things get better.

    Yeah no. Here's the thing, the monologue is great, but it doesn't go anywhere. This is why I don't like the West Wing that much. It's all academic theory and speeches. I don't mind some of that but I'd like to see some actual change happen and I never really saw that. It comes across as just a shinier version of Clinton era Democrats to me, a lot of talk and flash but not much substance. Also, the part about it being a "man's job" or whatever he said, to put his kids through college combined with comments made throughout the show about many of the female characters comes across kind of misogynistic, like this guy's wife has no agency in her kids getting to college except for bringing in a token salary.

      It is not only unethical, but it is self-destructive to limit the country's ability to foster smart, creative, and productive minds because of an overblown perception of how capitalism and competition should work. (Spoiler: Most corporations don't want competition and they prefer oligarchies over democracies and republics because of their own selfish greed) In this day an age more people are not getting the education they need because they can't afford college, they can't even afford the student loan which is getting more restrictive due to far right suppression, and the public schools are being limited in what they teach which in turn lowers the number of actual candidates for grants and scholarships. Our country is actually suffering from an overall drop in intelligence. It is no wonder more people buy into madeup "facts" by QAnon, why there is a resurgence and actual growth in anti-vaxxers, and why we had people storm the Capitol claiming stolen elections who hadn't even voted in the general election. And yet we continue to praise Elon Musk because he is putting us on Mars. We let Jeff Bezos abuse his employees so we can get our Playstations for Christmas. We follow Warren Buffett in his investment solutions that will not keep us in our homes the next time the housing bubble bursts. And we worry more about whether Kim Kardashian is going to divorce whatshisface than we worry more about how there are more hurricanes hitting the US every year, killing people and destroying their homes. This is our overall IQ at work, people. Because nobody is able to learn anything. And we've already crossed the point where people won't learn anything even if the opportunities become easier to actually enter college.

    In hindsight, everything about these two episodes seems like it was written backwards. Probably not. I'm probably wrong, but it feels like everything that happens between Josh and Toby is to get to this moment, cuz it's such a feel good opportunity for the audience. It's like they wrote this scene at the bar first, and then they were like, okay how do we get these two schlubs at the bar with this guy who basically represents the audience? How do we make this scene happen? All the craziness and Toby losing the bet to Josh all that seems like it's a set up for this magical moment. The punchline to a very well crafted joke, that's so deliciously not funny.

      I mean, you are right and that's the point. Often times, writers will craft the end and figure out how to get there. You have a message/theme, a beginning and an end. It's about creating context, and re-establishing that message/theme.
