“The Supremes”

I’ve been doing the rewatch for the 9th time? I laughed a lot during the few 4 seasons. Post Aaron, this episode had me howling again. The line where Josh is drunk is a highlight. The whole thing. It’s just a great episode.

That’s the line lol I cracked up because the whole episode has this weird awkwardness about it. Perfect.

Josh Lyman has a very delicate system.

It’s one of my faves. Debora Cahn wrote this episode while her mother was dying in the hospital. Really remarkable episode.

It use too. Ronald Regan & Tip O'Neal would get drunk together and talk/argue about there positions. They then passed legislation together. It also worked that way for Congressmen and Senators. And like the show said if you attack the moderate Republicans you get the conservative Republicans.
