Best episode so far imo. Very well written and with multiple complex storylines. Was glad to see they finally had a conservative that was likable and well spoken. Really liked the little digs, the one about how the South was going to be well prepared for a Russian invasion on the Georgia screwup was awesome. Also like the psychiatrist addition to the storyline and hope that sticks around for a while.

I'm always down for some therapy sessions on good shows like this.

Munn's wiki:

quote:

---

Although the family relocated many times, Munn was predominantly raised in Tokyo, Japan,[3][6] where the military stationed her stepfather. During this time, she had appeared in a number of local theater productions, and later became a model within the Japanese fashion industry.[7]

Also she has only been going by "Olivia" since 2006. Lisa is her given name.

Show has hit it's stride. Surprisingly comedic considering we knew the subject going in, but it worked. This was the show I signed up for.

Preview for the rest of the season was a bit spoilery, but plenty of good stuff to come. Only 3 left- I'll miss this show.

I agree!

loved this episode. Watching will give the body guard the news was an awesome scene as was the plane scene involving the captain.

Best episode yet last night.

Don's moment of realization with the United pilot was pretty moving.

Awesome. Totally awesome.

Got a little dust in my eyes during the United scene with Don...

Sorkin hosted a fundraiser for Obama today. Time to boycott this show and HBO.

later gator!

Just started watching last night. Absolutely love it.

Surprised the usual freaks from the politics board haven't ventured over to complain about this.

And thus begins one long reelection ad for Barack Obama. How else to interpret an episode that actually has the line: “Lives and a presidency were put on the line,” that is uniformly approving of a military action that violated Pakistan’s sovereignty to protect America’s, and that plays Obama’s speech over the end credits with the reverence of a church sermon?

Wah wah wah. Go cry somewhere else. I'm highly conservative and still love the show. Who effing cares. If you don't like it, no one is forcing you to watch it.

edit - noting your use of the word "freaks" in the last post, I took a second to review some of your prior posts in this thread and have determined you are being sarcastic. Disregard my post in that case.

Liberal propaganda. Pumping up Obama for bin laden killing.

Sucks they had to ruin what seems to have been a good show with liberal proobama bs

you are trying far to hard to troll this thread.

seriously if you don't like the show go watch something else you might like better....say Swamp People for instance, or maybe one of those Palin family reality shows.

THOSE SHOWS ARE MORE AMERICAN THAN A CHICKEN FRIED BASEBALL AND JESUS IS GOING TO SEE YOU BURN IN HELL FOR MAKING FUN OF THEM!!!

You mean a Chick-Fil-A fried baseball, right?

well those shows dont remind me of any Americans I hang out with. and if they did I might seriously think hard about getting education and perhaps bathing more regularly.

Solid ep- good set up the final 2 eps.

While I saw, but wasn't bothered by, the problems the critics were reaming this show for the first few eps, I think even they have to agree those problems have receded the last 2-3 eps.

Wow theses lib media types are a bunch of self righteous *******s.

Its a good show - entertaining - but WOW is it an interesting window into the liberal echo chamber of the mainstream media. Its pretty freaking amazing that they really appear to think they are even handed, and aren't left wing nuts. "I'm a fiscal conservative, but please stop even DEBATING whether to issue more debt we can't pay". Is that really what she said?
WOW. But it was entertaining. I'll definitely watch next week. I'm a bit disappointed I didn't start watching until the end of the season.
