But I only just found it two years ago!!!
[Read the article: Will you miss "The West Wing"?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Two years ago, I "found" The West Wing on BRAVO; the first episode kind of ticked me off - all that fast-paced politicalese, legalese, yadda yadda. But, to my surprise, I found myself absolutely HOOKED on the damn thing, after viewing only another couple of episodes - all reruns, all on BRAVO. Now, imagine this - I found to my great surprise that I came in at the middle of what appeared to be the FOURTH Season!! I'd never heard of the show - I didn't know anyone else who had - and I'd been missing Martin Sheen for years!! That was unbelievable to me, and I questioned how it could ever have happened. All at once, it came to me - I have not watched Network TV for years and years. NBC??? Are you KIDDING?!?! Listen, I could barely stand to admit that I watched Cable TV - it's not so hot, either, even with a million channels to surf. But the Broadcast Networks? No way. I told my husband, and ONLY my husband - I still didn't trust that this thing could hold up for much longer. Well, after three weeks or so, I knew I had to see ALL the episodes - I had to figure out all the story lines, all the characters - and I found myself at Ebay's front door. I now own all of the five seasons that are available, and of course, I will be purchasing seasons six and seven, just as soon as they're available. Sure I'm still "hanging in there"...I don't abandon MY ideals so quickly! Imagine a world without The West Wing - how very sad, how very unimaginative, how very hollow...Reality, what a concept.

Yes, we need to know - do we need to SEE??? Over and over again?? This is not a comic book - we all read English VERY well, thank you - PLEASE just tell us about it, describe it, condem it, yes, yes, YES, but stop the visual ASSAULT!!!
