Summary: A canadian reviews the west wing
Review: "WOW" is th eonly word that can describe this homerun by NBC and Aaron Sorkin. My questionable review is not based on the substance of the series, it is the manufacturer's choice of release sights. Although this is a show about AMERICAN politics, it yet has to be released in america. Much like the logic in some of United States' actions in dissarming iraq illude me, this decision does as well. this would be a breath of fresh air, to say the least, from real american politics. And last I heard people like money; seeing as the largest market for the DVD would be in the United States and Canada, I return to my original question, why? If you have the means to acquire this DVD, be forewarned. It may require a twelve step program for someone to remove it from their DVD player, and themselves from what would be the newly created groove in their couch. The west wing is a drug, and i among others, am addicted to it. So i take this chance to plead with those of you who read this in america, do whatever you can right this grave injustice and get the DVD offered here as well.

Summary: Best show ever - if only it were available here
Review: Okay, ready for the biggest teeth-kicker in the entertainment business? The West Wing is a brilliant portrayal of the White House that has won Best Drama in Emmys every year of its airing. It is over three years old and is still in its prime.I for one never got to see the first season...I'd love to get the DVD. Unfortunately, although it's an American show, I have no idea when I can play the DVD for myself. The 1st season has been released in Region II (European) format, and not playable on a Region I (American and Canadian) player. Fortunately, Bravo picks up reruns of The West Wing next year, and maybe by the time I've collected all of season one on tape, it'll be available on DVD...

Summary: Best DVDs I've bought... Too bad they're the UK version
Review: By this point there should be no doubt as to the quality of the television programming captured on these DVDs. Every review I've read, both on Amazon and elsewhere, and my own immense enjoyment of the set attests to its quality. How disappointing then that US fans of this show must look outside their own country to buy the DVD set. I went to Amazon.co.uk (the British local site for Amazon) and found the West Wing Season 1 set there. Be forewarned, however: These are Region 2 discs, meaning they can be readily played only by folks in Europe, the Middle East and Japan. If you are in the US, with a standard (i.e., non-region free) US player, you are out of luck. Your only recourse is to buy a "Region Free" player (many Web sites hawk modified low market players that can play any disc), modify your own player (don't even think about it), or try getting your computer DVD drive to play it. This last option is what I've accomplished, and though I'm happy to be able to watch these West Wing episodes whenever I like, it's a bummer to have to view them on my computer monitor. C'est la vie, I suppose.

Summary: I can't believe that UK and Europe get The West Wing first!
Review: It's incredible that NBC have decided to release The West Wing in region 2 (Europe) ahead of the region 1 (Americas). But hey, what do I care -- I live in London! I've got the whole first season on beautiful DVD to enjoy over and over. What wonderful scripts, pace and acting. You guys are really missing out. Sign up with Amazon.com now and add your name to the weight of customer demand. Or buy a region DVD player and the boxed set over on Amazon.co.uk if you really can't wait. Apart from the cast interviews, it's worth it.

Summary: West Wing is the Best !!!
Review: This is the best series I have seen since MASH. I love ensemble shows where the ball is passed from one incredible actor to another and all of them really seem to care about the work and series.I sincerly hope that this wonderful series is published on DVD format. I am not a policy wonk or news junkie. There is such passion and character development in this show that it literally seems like a vortex pulling me in. Everyone owes it to themselves to at least try the show for a few weeks and then they will likely be addicts like me and my family.
a waiting fan.
