The West Wing: Favorite Clips

As another irregular feature on this blog, I'll be posting some of my favorite West Wing scenes, with a short blurb following. There is no particular order to this, or any regularity implied. Also, some of my favorite scenes may not be available on Youtube, so don't consider this an exhaustive list. Enjoy!


This is an excellent clip from one of my favorite episodes. It was one of the most optimistic endings to a West Wing episode in its seven season run, and a nice respite before the quagmire at the end of Season Two began. Despite him being in just three episodes, Senator Stackhouse was one of my favorite minor characters.

I love how the letters of C.J., Sam, and Josh intertwine at the end. This is a pretty standard Sorkin writing technique, one that he used in Sports Night as well as The West Wing. The joy the characters put into the narration (especially C.J.) just adds to an already wonderful story.
