The West Wing

Ended its 5 series run a few weeks ago.

I certainly didn't watch it from the start so not sure when started but definitely one of the best US shows in recent times. I thought the last series was good & surprised they killed it off.

It was one of the best shows on TV bar none. The show was seen as a Martin Sheen vehicle and in the story he had come to the end of his two terms as President Bartlett .... [SPOILER EDITED]

CTID, I edited your post because the final series is still airing on E4.

Great show, probably the best drama series I've ever seen. They lost the plot a little when Sorkin left, but this final series made up for it.

Ok What nights cause I missed the last three shows 0n RTE and had to read about them in the Papers?

It ran a few weeks behind RTE so I thought it'd still be running, but I can't find it on the Sky guide and C4's search is borked, so it could actually be over. Sorry if it is.
