I'm baffled they didn't include the Bartlett- Richie debate. I love that episode! Also, Josh's PTSD episode. It's not comfortable to watch at all, but one of the few times they take on mental health.

hmmmmmm I love Celestial Navigation. It is one of my favorites. I mean secret plan to fight inflation? My other favorite is the butterball turkey one. S3 E8, at least parts of it. I dislike how they used native americans as props and there was no resolution. But tv mirroring reality I guess. 20 hours in America was...ok but predictable, I dislike how they just come up with 'FREE' college like it was their idea and it took Donna to corral them the entire time like they were preschoolers. The others not necessarily the best imo Not a favorite episode beyond that but I LOVE the first time Josh meets Joey Lucas I dont want to spoiler anything else for those only on S2

Hi, I have never watched but just started on Netflix! It's probably going to take me forever to get through, but I am excited.

Celestial Navigation has always been my fave. Hands down. so much fantastic dialogue
The hardest job in the White House is the President. The second hardest job is not Chief of Staff, it's not National Security Advisor, and it's not Press Secretary, although I'm gaining a certain amount of respect for Press Secretaries. The second hardest job in the White House belongs to a 21-year-old kid named Charlie Young. He's what's called the President's body man, his personal aide. He's with the President morning to night. He has a range of responsibilities, all of them difficult. But the one he hates most in this: From time to time it is his job to wake the President up in the morning. And on this particular morning, the President had gone to sleep only three hours earlier.

Two weeks out is one of my favorites, I would have picked that over the debate in the last season.

Bartlet lighting up a cigarette in church and yelling at God after Mrs. Landingham's death.....goosebumps.
Other episodes I love:
Game On, this is right before he gets reelected where they play the trick on Toby before the debate that Bartlet isn't ready. LOL forever. Dead Irish Writers - Abby's birthday party at the WH Posse Comitatus - I have a love/hate relationship with this episode because the SS guy that was protecting CJ dies. That was awful. I loved their interactions. The Supremes - I think this is the one Glenn Close is in as the Supreme Court Justice Nominee. I loved that episode.
Also the episode where Ainsley meets POTUS for the first time. She looks for the bathroom to pee while she is in Leo's office and goes into the closet and tells him she is peeing in the closet. I died. Then Sam brings him down to her office again to properly meet her and she's a hot mess in her bathrobe dancing.
There are others but these were off the top of my head.

Mary McCormack’s sister is a judge in MI and some cast did an ad for her. Including Jimmy Smits 😍

I'm really partial to the Stackhouse Filibuster. It's really hard to pick just one though.
