Greatest TV scenes ever

So many great WW scenes, but this is one of my favorites. Sam at the end kills me. 

I was a late adapter to West Wing. When it came out I thought it might be too liberal and preachy (and this is coming from a lib), so I just never watched it. But I binged it a couple years ago at the urging of my fiancé, and I fucking loved it. Such great writing and acting all around, and an all-time fantastic cast.

This entire episode was a scene filmed in a single shot, and it’s one of the best in the series, up there with Fishes and Forks. So chaotic from beginning to end. It took me a few minutes to unclench.

Rarely literally laugh out loud when watching tv by myself but this one (the whole episode) does it for me.

You somehow managed to pick one of the few bad scenes and awful episodes of parks and rec, lucky for you it gets much better soon

“I never knew why you loved me at all…”

Don had his mistress, a naive schoolteacher, waiting in the car and yet we somehow felt bad for him.

Such an amazing scene. And the teacher had to do the walk of shame.

I find it hard to insert a clip from cop shows.  OF course the big arrest drama depends on you already knowing the crime and the chase etc.  This one works in two short clips because we know the argument.

David Wallace from the Office played a congressman in one episode of the first season of West Wing.

ok, last night i found a 3rd.

there's a ww episode in late s4 i think, where there were a group of about-to-be-us-citizens who needed to be moved to an auditorium to get sworn in or whatever, and bartlet goes to say hello.  the judge who is doing the swearing in is also hank, the security guard from the office.

there may be more, but they are deep cuts.
