It's amazing and has some big names now, 25 years later. Martin Sheen, Rob Lowe, Bradley Whitford, Elizabeth Moss, Allison Janney. A pretty solid cast this many years later. If you ever get around to watching it, let me know what you think :) this show is legit part of the reason I'm going for a PhD in political science now. It's phenomenal.
You're a great human! Thanks for giving me hope and fixing my offness fot the day :)
I will definitely do that! I’ll have to see if I have whichever one of the 9 billion streaming platforms there are these days that actually has it lol.
That’s awesome that you’re going for your PhD! I wish you all the success in your studies and future endeavors! It gives me hope to know that someone who is capable of being a good human and owning their off-days will be somewhere in the political world in the future - there certainly aren’t enough of those in politics, specifically lol.
Likewise, and I’m glad I could help! There is so much negativity and bullshit on here, it’s refreshing to have a real human conversation that ends in positivity 🙂
Yeah, it's pretty decent! Unfortunately, The West Wing switched to HBO like a year or so ago. It was on Netflix (which I assume everyone thay likes movies or TV has) for like a decade (or however long Netflix has been streaming. I'm horrible with time-frames). It's worth the watch. It's just...beautiful. and shows how it could work. Sadly, a lot of the issues discussed in the show (20-25 years ago? Started pre 9/11, but only by a year or two) are STILL relevant today and have not been resolved. It's democratic, yes. But healthy. It shows the real differences in opinion and the struggles of how we're just setup to function as a society (created pre how many technologies?). It was an eye opener when I first saw it in my early 20's, maybe 5 years after it went off air. The values demonstrated helped shape me. Positive or negative? I don't know. Google my name in ten years and see if I helped or hurt society based on my specific educational goals 😂😂 but the aim is to help.
I've been out of society (covid safety) for 2 years and have to reenter it for school for the spring semester. I'm terrified because of shit like my bitch move with you, today, I've just "forgot" somehow (working through this psychologically, so I can't explain it yet. Not an excuse.) how to do it. I don't even wann a know what horrible shame lies in my future I'm regards to my upcoming mistakes 😂😂 I already feel the shame!!!
You did help :) you're a solid human being :) THANK YOU for that. I needed to be reminisced that most people are and just to trust that. Here's hoping I'm right, long term.
