  Who could forget Martin Sheen's speech to God in the National Cathedral after Mrs. Landingham's funeral? ("Two Cathedrals") Absolutely riveting. That scene alone should have won him an Emmy.

  I love the way Martin is just allowed to tell the stories. So often hosts push their personalities into an inverview which then diminishes the value.  Well done Brad!

  As a person living with multiple sclerosis, I found Martin Sheen's portrayal and more importantly Aaron Sorkin's writing with regards to multiple sclerosis to be very inspirational. After all, if Jed Bartlet can be the leader of the free world, while battling multiple sclerosis, I can certainly get through my own days with multiple sclerosis. Often times I go back and watch the episodes that specifically dealt with President Bartlett's battle with multiple sclerosis. I felt the trip to China was more realistically portrayed than much of what I had seen with regards to someone battling a chronic progressive disease, and what an exhausting day like that would look like, the toll working that long a day takes on one's body can be brutal! I also thoroughly related to his frustration when he tries to stand at the sink and do something as simple as brushing his teeth but he ends up falling. I have been there many times. This program was very empowering to me, and still is.

  The scene with CJ about pardoning the second turkey was absolutely hysterical. "CJ, I really have no jurisdiction over birds."

  Great interview. Martin Sheen is an American treasure. <br><br>You know you&apos;ve watched the show all the way through too many times when you know what details Martin remembers incorrectly.

  For the love of God thank you mr. interviewer for just letting your guest riff and have sincere stream of consciousness. This was great.

  You were great - you asked a simple question or two and just let Martin talk and you got the best. No interruptions and we , the viewers got the gold. Congrats.

  Watched every episode so many times - except one. Have only watched Leo’s funeral once because it breaks my heart. Sleep well John you are missed xxx

  My daughter Angelina was only 10 years old when she fell in love with The West Wing. Despite being a Filipina, she spoke and understood English perfectly. I bought the series on DVD. How could such a young person understand and appreciate such &quot;complicated&quot; English? It was beyond me. She has watched the series three times altogether. Now she is 21.
