Damn you West Wing!

West Wing is running my life. This is the second weekend in a row i've watched the boxset (bear in mind i've seen it three times all the way through) resulting in me doing no work!!!! I stopped watching when i got to mid series 6, i mean i can probably say the script word for word at this point. Can i just say too, how psychic the writers are in regards to season 6 & 7 - moderate republican and unknown ethnic minority democratic? except the economy was the nuclear explosion?
