Bravo @ 7pm = the start of the West Wing Season 5


I used to watch TWW all the time, but then went TV-less for about a year and lost track. Your post caused me to sit down and watch this. Zoey! Oh! (that must have been the end of season 4, eh?)

I used to ask myself constantly, rhetorically "How did we wind up with this ignorant yo-yo when we really should get somebody like Jed Bartlett?" I still ask that.

Here's a bit of a West Wing nonsequitur, though: Has anybody read "Imperial Hubris" by Anonymous? I am about 3/4 of the way through. I am not sure I agree completely with his analysis or with the prescription that I see coming, but I feel like the book has really colored how I view some things if I can judge just from watching this season 5 opener last evening.

As lovable, literate, liberal and righteous as I have always felt the imaginary Jed to be, when I watched the concluding visit to church/mass -- the deliberate communion, the sacred singing -- it really evoked Jed the Crusader.

So, is season 5 showing on Al Jazeera? How are the ratings?
