West Wing - last ever tonight

banquo

Well, its the last ever episode of this wonder, wonderful drama, and after last weeks excellent cliffhanger how can we but wait in terrific suspense for tonights episode, on rte 1 at the earlier time of 11:00?

Also, i already know what happens:rolleyes:

sceptre

Hmmm, last episode ever eh? Thanks for the headsup - added to personal planner along with last Buffy.

Thomas

it's not the last ever - just the last this season.

Winters

Thank christ...... no more West Wing. You can now dedicate your Thursdays to Oz .... Behold Oz Night!

banquo

it WAS the last ever series - sheen has left, and saorkin can't be relied on to deliver scripts on time. it's official.

it was... ok. the ending didn't really resolve anything, but was still good, wit the whole "life and death" theme.

banquo

also, who is molly?

Dr. Dre

They're not just going to leave it like that, are they ?

ffs :rolleyes:

Hyzepher

I think Molly was the secret service agent.

It was NOT the last ever episode..just the last in the current season. They have already signed up for two more seasons at least from what I have read.
Yes Sorkin has left the programme now but Sheen has not.

Cork

I think some guy involved with ER is taking over from Sorkin.

This series is not finishing up next week.

That couldnt have been the last ever episode. He only relinquished the presidency temporarily.

Also Sheen didnt leave but he did receive a lot of criticism from sponsors over his anti-war views.

Molly was the young secret service agent killed while protecting Zoe.

the ending last night left alot to be desired. there is so much that could have been done. im very upset with the west wing now.

commencment was the best episode ever, but ffs, 25 just reeked. it was a let down on last week.

I'm not so sure about that...I actually thought last nights episode was one of the best and left me wanting more. I can't wait for next season to see just what John Goodman will get up to.

A lot of people have been saying that he wasn't the most suitable for the role but I thought he was very good actually once I got over the surprise of seeing who it was.

This show definately up there with the best on tv right now Others include L+O, L+O Criminal Intent, Without a Trace, CSI, 24, LA Dragnet (as you can see I like American dramas) and Spooks.

how can you say that, he was in it for a total of 10 minutes, surley you couldnt have formed and opinion of him already.
i think ill wait till the next series before i make an opinion on him. but i will say this, he has come along way from Roseanne

I just thought he was the perfect Republican...a big, arrogant and ignorant redneck (in a suit obviously).

The "you're dismissed" line was class even if it was a bit unrealistic.

banquo

there's just something wrong in a world that has Hohn Goodman as president. Also, i didn#t like hte cheek he was given out in the oval office.
still, if its really not the last episode, all the better!

pugwall

I only started watching The West Wing two weeks ago, I'm hooked. I think its a fantastic drama. Although I do find some parts unrealistic to say the least.......

I cant wait for the new season.

I agree. Although it it was strange seeing him play that role.

Health board chief executives have been advised to prepare ``a selection of human interest stories'' in readiness for the publication of the Brennan and Prospectus reports in ten days' time.

Hopefully, the the government will ignore media human interest stories relating to the health system.

The Minister trippled the budget - he should now reform the system - closing hospitals were necessary.

As for health boards - I think we will not miss them.

All public services need to become efficent and more customer focused.

Barry Aldwell

Even if the show does go on for another 2 seasons, how will they end it? Will they justend ti there and then, after his successor takes over, or will they fire sheen and get in a new president? Seeing things with a republican/evil president would be interesting.

valor

nah dont think that they will do that, because they would have to replace the whole cast and they might not get the formula right again

So thats where , the money for the health service is coming from:D
Maybe thats why Sheen has left, they've diverted his wages to re-open a ward....
Cork where did you get that scoop?

As regards the health boards, they shouldn't have booted the politicians out - they may be a shower of bastards, but they represent public accountability. Now the remaining four boards will be less accessible, in theory.
Anyway, the West Wing...
