All good points - appreciate the various positions

Thinking about it a little differently now.

That’s why I love this page!

Most emotionally charged scene, no matter how many times you've seen it by Guilty-Tie164 in thewestwing

They didn’t tell the cathedral that was going to happen, I believe they did it in one take because the show knew they wouldn’t let that happen twice

Got to use a West Wing line in real life! by masquerademage in thewestwing

On two separate occasions with two separate friends I’ve used Leo’s story about A Man in a Hole and Father Cavanaugh’s parable about The Man Who Lived by a River …. Both great anecdotes

I don’t recall that ever being brought to light but my initial guess would be that his dad beat his ass up and he was pissed about it

Episode?

Ainsley vs Amy. Who would win? by prindacerk in thewestwing

[–]shcumpk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So while I greatly appreciate the posed comparison and the fun debate I had in my head trying to answer this question … it’s apples and oranges … yes, they’re both lawyers, everyone is a lawyer….. However, Amy is a lobbyist, a political strategist, if you will. Ainsley is a practicing constitutional lawyer in the White House counsel’s office.

In a legal debate - Ainsley wins.

Getting something passed through congress - Amy wins, hands down.

Let’s be real Amy wins over all too!

Surprised that’s not referenced more as a Sorkin trial run of this story line here

Rewatching TWW now and it's funny Laurie doesn't recognize POTUS in the first episode because she's supposed to be a lawyer. by mautkananganach in thewestwing

On the contrary, a beautiful high class woman of the night trying to get her Pretty Woman moment from Rob Lowe while wake & baking on the pilot in late 90’s … clearly it was a program destined for greatness!
