I hate spoilers!!

So, we did in fact finish Season 6 of The West Wing tonight and followed it with the first episode of Season 7.

...during which they TOTALLY SPOIL THEIR OWN ENDING. Gah. I guess the writers/directors/whomever was involved just wrote the piece for the stupid unthinking mass-market TV viewers?

Basically, this season is all about a presidential election. They started it off with a "three years later" flash-forward that utilizes a snazzy cut to just avoid blatantly showing you who won, but there are enough hints in it that I feel pretty darned certain. And this makes me grumpy. I HATE HATE HATE spoilers.

Although, I have to admit that one of the OTHER things that came out of the flash-forward made me smile. I guess I don't mind love plots being spoiled. ;)

p.s. If you know what I'm talking about and give me ANY information more than what I already know, our friendship is totally over. Seriously. I hate spoilers.

I warned her that Season 5 was going to be discouraging at best. A lot of it is jsut really BAD (::coughAccesscough::), even if you can somehow NOT compare it to the Sorkin Years. The few really good episodes (Such as The Supremes) only highlight how awful the rest of the season is.

Season...5? Oh, right. The number between 4 and 6. Funny, I've gone an misfiled that one on my shelf again. It seems so "Wal-Mart bargain bin" compared to the others. :-D

There were some wretched episodes that season, I keep thinking of "No Exit" and "The Stormy Present". (must... not... apply... pencils... to... eyeballs...)

No Exit had some good moments. Charlie not liking the nasal swabs, CJ calling Donna out on her feelings for Josh, those were good. And I have a Law Enforcement related crush on Ron Butterfield. So any episode with him in it gets an automatic B from me just for that.

The Stormey Present, though- I just can't ever figure out what that episode is supposed to be ABOUT.
