I'm still enjoying The West Wing a lot, although I'm noticing a trend this year to have big crises develop that get resolved, well, within the hour. I was starting to think, over the last couple of seasons, that Aaron Sorkin's vaunted dialogue was starting to get repetitive (watch enough Sorkin scripts in performance and you'll see tons of reused memes, like the words "thing" and "Yeah"), but I do miss the fact that Sorkin knew that you don't always have to resolve things. Closure isn't everything.
