The West Wing: Difference between revisions

* [[Left Hanging]]: About a dozen subplots were simply and unceremoniously dropped when Sorkin left the show, the most notable being the fate of Sam Seaborn, last seen waging a losing campaign for Congress. Although Sam eventually did come back for the last few episodes, it never was explained why his promotion to Senior Counselor (decided on in the two-parter "Inauguration") never happened.

* [[Like Parent, Like Spouse]]: Mallory tells Sam "you are so exactly like him" when Sam insists on perfecting an assignment Leo gave him to sabotage their date, rather than going out for coffee with the two of them. Any potential [[Squick|squickiness]] is avoided when Sam sincerely calls that the [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming|nicest thing she's ever said]] to him.

* [[Little No]]: Leo, to Will Bailey when the three campaign managers can't stop bickering and maneuvering.

{{quote|'''Will''': Well I'd like a day to go over this.
