God I'm so in love with The West Wing, I can't even say. Nothing is adequate for the depth of my love. Best I can do is ILOVEYOUILOVEYOUILOVEALLOFYOUSOMUCHOMGLOOOOOVE!!! I just...wow. Now THIS is what I call a show. Not the crap I call Torchwood or show that is dead to me. But The West Wing fills me with glee, complete happiness and faith in the world even in the scary parts.

It's the idealism. It's so intoxicating. I am an idealist, pure and simple and this show makes me believe again. They're ALL idealists, my team. They have different versions of it, innocent Sam, cynical (on the outside) Toby, principled yet personal CJ, smack you down Josh, arrogant AND moral Jed and gruff Leo, but they all do it. They stick together, they support each other, they bond because they ALL believe that the world can be better and that they can fight for it to make that happen. And that is why I love them and this show.

Also? The dialogue. Wow, I am seriously impressed. Only maybe Joss surpasses it for me and that's in a different way. It blows me away how many lines make me laugh or just drop my mouth open in amazement. They somehow make me find a way to keep increasing my love for these characters and my character love just bounces straight off the charts.

Somewhere during this season 4 I started a list of moments I loved because in watching so fast I start to lose track of just WHY I love these people and can't get enough of them. Sometimes it's little things, small quotes that make me marvel at their perfection, little actions that say so much and other times it's classic lines and moments and crazy, how can this have possibly happened on my computer screen scenes. Here's my list mostly S4, a few of the things I remembered from past seasons and some S5:

Besides that, life has been pretty boring lately. Just work and TV and little things in between. Excited about Vividcon in a month!
