it had all of that mate...HBO would have madfe it tooo dark. the best thing about weast wing, and the worst, was just how liberal the show was. they were trying to do the right thing, but there were sex scandals in it, and deaths, and lots besides. they even forced down a plane and shot the delegate, covering it all up afterwoods. there were drugs, addicts, everything you need

I like it when you find a show you like which slipped under the radar. Then find you then have four or five seasons to enjoy in short order .

Certainly beats getting hooked on a show and having it axed after a season.

Watching  Chuck and the light comedy of 30Rock and Big bang Theory at moment.

When do all shows start returning like Supernatural and Lost ?

Another great show from Dave Simon. And what's even better Rudy Reyes plays himself.  :D That M40 sniper scene with him and Pappy is so cool.

Ah yeah good old Oz. The good thing about HBO they tend to stick to the same bunch of actors so if you follow any of their other shows you will probably recognise a few familiar faces.

Beecher in S2 when he bites that guys dick.  :D

Yeah half the guys from the Wire are in it

Beecher has changed so much since he came in, hes a different person from the guy we seen coming in in the first episode. Adebisi is a brilliant character, larger than life and I really like Ryan O Reilly, a very smart guy :D

i like it a lot, AMC has real quality shows, which is strange because they are supposed to be a movie channel.

could never get into breaking bad.. too funny to be dark, too dark to be funny, found it just to be a bit of a mishmash not knowing what it was trying to be...
