getting up to the vinegar strokes of season three and the west wing is still cooking after a ten minute loss of faith at the first episode.

if it can keep it like this through four and five which seem to be viewed as the worst seasons, before hitting a purposeful stride again with six and seven.....then the impossible has happened and i've found seven series strong brilliance to fill the gaping gilmore girls void in my life.

fingerscrossed...

but then...this is where sorkin departs....
