(I'll be able to watch it, as I have HBO due to my DirecTV.)

(28,287 posts)I hope Sorkin's "original material" rips the trump administration a new asshole. Sorkin is certainly capable of doing it, even if the play is set in the past.
"West Wing" may be the only TV series in my long lifetime that I watched every minute of. Didn't miss a single episode.
