Josh Lyman is one of the best characters to come out of TV

[Catch22Dem]

TV has seen so many very memorable characters; Hawkeye, George, Kramer, Sam & Diane, J.R., Gilligan, Niles, Dr. Greene, Dr. Quincy, Dr. Huxtable, Jeannie, Samantha (Stephens and Micelli) but Josh Lyman has to rank near the top. What a great character.

1. if you have any doubts, watch the chile episode

when he goes to the psychologist and then talks with CJ while listening to the Ave Maria. It's an amazing Josh episode and it will silence anyone who thinks Josh is an arrogant bastard.

2. I completely and totally agree he is amazing.

3. Kinda sounds like we may lose our show

The move to Sunday nights is ominous.

5. I always thought networks put there best TV on Sunday nights..

..because more people are home. For an example other than West Wing how about Family Guy, there is no way that show's doing bad and It's on sunday.

6. Yeah, but WW is averaging 4 million fewer viewers since the move

Not good.

4. I agree.

He's one of the most complex characters I've ever seen. Most of that original West Wing cast falls into that category.
