West Wing - 'Manchester' (episode 1 and 2)
Okay, since we classified ER as cult and sci-fi, why not West Wing? If we do reviews on ER, why not West Wing?
To start off I LOVED IT
The replay of the end of the last season without Dire Straits 'Brothers in Arms' worked well, plus the whole "yep, and I'm gonna win!"
CJ most impressed me, how she broke down in the press conference, her reaction, her wanting to resign and shouting at the POTUS. Ten thumbs up Josh revealing to Donna he screwed up tobacco, another wonderful moment
The jumping between four different times was really hard to follow to start with, but worked well later. And yippy, oscar winner Marlee Matlin was back as Joey Lucas. But grrrr....
The guy who played Bronos (spelling) I reconised, but couldn't think who it was (Alec from Veronic's Closet). So that annoyed me through the entire two parter
What impressed me most though (save CJ, who is on par with Willow and Kerry Weaver), was POTUS and Abby's marriage. It WAS like a real marriage, the problems they had really happen. It was great to see that
All in all, thank God, West Wing is back and as great as ever.

Really enjoyed this one - much better than the S2 finale, where nothing happened and took its time doing it.
