Thanks for the report.

Maybe those of us who can't stomach Sheen et al can rely on you for occasional updates....like when the ratings get so bad they drop the whole damn show.

Just for the record, I only watched about 1/3 of last season's episodes. Sorkin's writing had become increasingly strident, filled with conservative hate, and just plain bad on its own merits. The show's ratings collapsed because the quality of the show collapsed, period. Whenever there was anything else good on in the same time slot (and there was another show I much preferred, though I can't think of it at the moment), that show got my eyeballs and I just said, "Eh, I'll watch West Wing in the summer." Except I never got around to it then, either. I don't have the desire any more.

I'll give it a few weeks this fall to see if it gets any better, and more fair to conservatives. If not, I'll give up on it for good.
