Thanks so much for the review! :D theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/she) 00:12, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Quick comment: ALT1 appears to be incorrect; List of The West Wing episodes shows two earlier episodes (1x08 and 4x09) with no writing credit for Sorkin. Just something to consider for whoever picks the blurb to use. RunningTiger123 (talk) 04:12, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
