West Wing
2nd May 2006, 01:16 GMT
A kickass West Wing again last night. Santos is really getting interesting. Every week it seems more of a shame that the trip is over in two weeks. There was a piece in yesterday's NY Times about how all the networks missed American Idol, at first, before Fox picked it up. Now it's the number one show. Maybe West Wing will be like Star Trek. Cancelled, then brought back. Cancelled again, and brought back one more time. Or maybe it'll be like Law and Order, with all kinds of spinoffs. Or like the Beverly Hillbillies, with a funny wacked out almost psychadelic spinoff (Green Acres) and a corny cheescake spinoff with a little 60s soft TV porn (Petticoat Junction). Mrs. Santos is a kick too. Who could have forseen that Arnie Vinick would remind you of Leo McGarry, but in the end, he does. It's sad to think the end is near just when it's getting so good again. Maybe we didn't do our jobs well enough, I keep thinking. Maybe we were supposed to tell our friends who left the show when it started getting stale that all it needed, it turns out, was some fresh blood. The new cast is awesome. It's a shame it's almost over.
