 A Great TV Show and An Impressive DVD Collection January 7, 2009
I was always a big fan of "The West Wing" and had been waiting for the DVD collection of the series to come out. The price, however, proved to be prohibitive ($200 plus dollars). Thanks to the great deals on Amazon on Cyber Monday, I was able to purchased the series for about half the price. The box set is, to say the least, sturdy in its construction. The design is attractive - a nice shade of blue that does not scratch easily. Finally, the shows are great - it's nice to be able to see the changes in the characters over time.
If I have any complaint, it would have to be that the Special Features are a little light for such a large collection. The normal extras such as director and writer commentary are there but no real surprises - like how much the just ended Presidential race mirrored the series (Santos = Obama, Vinick = McCain).
Overall, a great purchase.
 One of the best written TV series. January 7, 2009
This TV series is one of the best written. It should be in any videophile's collection.
Brilliant, timely treatise on government January 7, 2009
The West Wing should be viewed by anyone interested in the workings of the U.S. Government. While some of the personal stories make it entertaining, my fascination with the series stems from gaining a deeper understanding of how government really works. Not just for politics junkies...but for every citizen.
The boxed set is beautifully designed and well organized. Would have loved to have more information on the background for the series, bios of the cast, perhaps an article on what was happening in the real Washington D.C. at the time the series was made. But perhaps that's another product.
Great Collectors Item January 7, 2009
My family had recently watch season 1 of West Wing, renting it through Blockbuster video. We tried in vain to find season 2 of West Wing to rent, so we decided to buy the series. It was on sale through Amazon at $15 per season right before Christmas, in individual boxed seasons. My wife then found this collectors set with all 7 seasons in one nice package. We have been EXTREMELY pleased with the quality and features of the set. Each season comes packaged in its own fold out sleeve or divider, with a bonus disc at the end giving details about the show and certain episodes. There also is a book depicting what is on each season and on each disc, a brief TV Guide synopsis so to speak. There also is a booklet containing information about the show, each character and various other interesting information. All-in-all, you get much more detail and information with the collectors set versus individual season boxes. I love it and if you are a West Wing fan as we are, you should absolutely buy this.
Wonderful West Wing!! January 7, 2009
I had the best experience with this purchase. This was a gift for my Husband and he loved it the most. We watch a few episodes every night. I am so happy to have bought this for him and have this special time to share.
