"The West Wing" is among the best shows to appear on TV. Bold but true.

If the idea of watching a SitCom leaves you with a cold sense of dread because you're genuinely concerned that you'll become as stupid as the people that seem to like those "mental-chewing gum" shows, then the West Wing is for you.

The scripting is generally very tight, the acting is superb, the direction is non-intrusive, and the story lines are captivating and sophisticated. It's easy to imagine that this may be not too removed from the actual machinations of US politics - and this perspective in itself gives a new depth to actual current affairs.

Of course, being able to watch an intelligent show on DVD has the blissful bonus of not being interrupted with inane messages about how people will like you more if you buy this toothpaste, this toilet soap, this car, or this processed food.

Aaron Sorkin knows his stuff and the actors of the West Wing shine as they battle themselves and righteous Republicans on this Wednesday evening TV show. Most everything on the West Wing goes downhill after season 3 (although season 6 seems to be chugging along at a progressive pace), so just deal with it and get all three seasons at the same time. You won't need the rest.

The West Wing is masterful. The stories, the characters, the actors. Aaron Sorkin is a true artist, as are the actors. The people that think this is a left-wing program are truly mistaken. The story line leans both ways. You won't be disappointed with the WestWing.

IMO Aaron Sorkin is a genius and along with a solid cast this show is really the Rosetta Stone for television excellence. First three seasons set it all up.

I ordered the first three seasons of the West Wing TV series on DVD. The cost was much lower than buying from the official web site and when the product arrived, it was in 'brand new' condition as promised. It did take longer to arrive than I thought, but other than that, I am very satistied.

The west wing offers a very realistic insight in to the process of making political decissions in a modern 21st century democracy.

Great show, even if you don't agree with the politics of the party in office on the show.

This is a great series for anyone who is looking for great entertainment. The acting is great, as are the story lines. I like having the entire series on hand to watch whenever I want, and this is a set you can watch over and over again. These are the best years of the show.

What can you say? Its great insight to the Executive Branch of our government. A little more dramatic in some places, a little less dramatic in other places; not unlike the real executive branch.

I've liked certain thngs about this Show since it first came on. there has been some Hit&Miss episodes but overall it's a Pretty Good show& I can see why it continues to do well.
