Summary: INTELLIGENT AND ARTICULATE
Review: Nicely written and well acted with enjoybable characters, this is an enjoyable drama about modern politics. While the show is more of a fantasy about how we would like the White House to be rather than a representation of what it is, it makes your brain work a little and has a tangible emotional content that puts it's mark on you.

Summary: The best TV Show ever -- Hands Down
Review: The West Wing is the best TV show ever. Never before has there been such a serious yet halarious comedy about politics. This is the only show ever that has made me feel emotionally attached to the characters involved, sitting on the edge of my seat. The next episode always seems much more than a week away. This one of the only good clean educational and entertaining shows on TV today, and I give it two thumbs up! I hope the directors and big-whigs down at NBC make the smart decision to release the first 3 seasons on DVD - it would be the smartest thing they've ever done besides putting this show on the air.

Summary: Series 1
Review: I live in Australia and I use Amazon alot for DVDs even though the Aussie dollar is 2:1. I find it amazing that Amazon (and the US) does not yet have West Wing on DVD. Looking primarily at Amazon, I was more than a bit sad about that because I think the series is fantastic. Anyway, low and behold whilst wandering through my local (store), I found the full Series 1 (2 DVD boxed sets of 3 DVDs each/all 22 episodes on DVD for ... some odd Assie dollars. Fantastic - I'll get them I thought while I have the chance. Not believxing my luck, I checked out the usually reliable US Amazon site to be informed (again) that "...the studio is not releasing..." WestWing just yet. Well go figure because it is now occupying pride of place in my DVD library. Interestingly, Amazon UK West Wing on DVD (albeit for a hell of a lot more money than my (store) locally (even with the postage). I have spent literally thousand of dollars on Amazon DVDs (US) and up until now thought they were unbeatable in terms of movie range. I am dissapointed. I am holding out for Series II (and III - which has not yet been aired in Australia). Hopefully, Amazon will get back on the ball amd make these available to audiences (including me) shortly. ... regards Cathie

Summary: Get it,Watch it, Love it!
Review: This is my favourite show of the past ten years and to have the entire first series at my fingertips is outstanding. The extras are interesting but to have each episode to watch again (and again) further reinforces how excellent the entire production is.The writing,as is often acknowledged,is A1 and in the frantic pace of the first viewing a couple of years ago, some of it was accidently missed. Now I can catch every word and expression and it adds so much to my overall liking of the show. It has also taught me a great deal about how the government "works" in the USA....very educational! Bring on the second series as quickly as possible, it is unfair to leave us hanging. If you are already a fan of the show, get the DVD's and relive the magic. If you have only heard a whisper about how good the show is, it's not too late to become a fan, grab the DVD's and find out for yourself what all the fuss is about. Enjoy.

Summary: The Best Series I've Seen in Years
Review: This review refers to the Region 2 (PAL) versions of the DVD. The UK market gets a headstart in seeing the release of Season 1 of The West Wing in 2 DVD box sets (Set 1-Episodes 1-11 & Set 2-Episodes 12-22). The show itself is fast paced and brimming with intelligent dialogue. Once you put it in your DVD player, you wouldn't want to stop until you get to the end of it. Special features for Set 1 include TV spot & short interviews with major cast members and Aaron Sorkin, the creator of the show & DVD-ROM enhanced features. Set 2 extras include several TV spots and 'Making of' featurette for all TWW fans & DVD-ROM features. Extremely satisfying TV viewing. Can't wait for the new seasons to come out on DVD.

Summary: motivated me to write my first review
Review: I'm generally so turned-off by US television that I don't even own a TV. However, this series is something different. The dialogue is sharp, witty and illuminating. The characters never cease to show off their capacity to come up with stunning lines off-the-cuff. ...

Summary: The West Wing
Review: I watched the first part of season one and then went on a frantic search for part two. Finally got it this month and boy was it worth the wait... I can only agree with everyone so far in that this is got to be the best series in years and certainly the best thing being shown on British TV. The producers couldn't have picked a better cast. Them and the story lines are what makes this series CRACKIN (Scottish for fantastic)...

Summary: West Wing
Review: This programme has a strong following in The UK and is it no wonder. The scripts are great; actors first class and overall extremely intelligent. I am glad that the first series will be available on DVD towards the end of July 2002. However, I hear the season 2 series will not be available until April 2003. This is the best thing on TV at the moment and NBC should get their fingers out to make it available. That said I must praise NBC for commissioning this wonderful series.

Summary: Brilliant drama
Review: The West Wing is about the best thing on UK TV. It is great drama, with excellent characters, absorbing story lines and a sense of humour. If only real politics were the same. There are few other things that make me look forward to Sunday evenings (current airing time in England). The first half of series 1 is already available in the UK on region 2 DVD with the rest out later this month... My wife and I watched the lot in only 3 sittings: we had to ration ourselves so as not to watch it all at once, although it was tempting.
