    Happy to see this not in the top 200 favorite TV shows.

      Editing … Maybe my favourite show of all time. I'd ask what you have against it but I long since gave up on trying to make sense of your opinions Egg. What's next?

      Editing … Yeah, it's 1 or 2 for me as well, and I'm rewatching it again at the moment. @Richard Pale, have you checked out the West Wing Weekly podcast? It's really good.

      Editing … It's weird having weird opinions. It makes you question how some things get so much more popular than others.

      Editing … I've never got into podcasts, I'm guessing it's just analysing the real life politics behind the show?

      Editing … Not at all. It's an episode by episode recap and analysis of the show. One of the two hosts is Joshua Malina, who played Will Bailey, and the other is his friend Hrishi Hirway, who does another podcast about music. It only started a little under a year ago and they're only in season two so far, with the intent of going through the whole show. It's got the blessing of a lot of people from the show and they even have frequent guests who worked in front of and behind the camera (and I mean big names; they've gotten most of the main cast and even Sorkin himself to come on once), and also sometimes political people and so on. It's really well-done and a lot of fun. I've been re-watching each episode each week along with them to be ready for the podcasts on Wednesday.

      Editing … That podcast sounds like the sort of thing I would watch if I liked the show. I'm into that sort of thing. Me Blog Write Good (The Simpsons), Critically Touched (Buffy), and the whole review/analysis community (Pony) are good examples.

      Editing … I love reading the TV Tropes for a favourite show/film and talking about it on sites like this. I never watch the "making of/special feature" DVDs though and an episode by episode podcast sounds like a bit much. Which one had Sorkin on? I'll maybe give it a go for Two Cathedrals.

      Editing … I like some special features. I like Simpsons commentaries as much as I like some of my 9/10 shows. Monsters Inc. had the best non-commentary special features I ever saw.

      Editing … I just hit the wrong button and went incognito for a moment. Da fuq? Computers have so many weird hidden things.

      Editing … See, I'm the kind of guy who if he can get it, will pass on buying a DVD for awhile if the only one available is the one without all the special features (if there are more than two editions). I love all that stuff. But the podcast is also just a love letter to the show. Hrishi is a big fan and was the one who got Josh involved, and it shows. They're not uncritical at all, but they definitely have a good time and respect the work.
