Yeah, the West Wing is just badass. Fucking awesome writing. Can't wait till I get my hands on season 4, as I hear it's the last one that's really any good.
When I first heard about Lost, I thought it would be shit. Just didn't sound like it was going to work out...but the other night, I was downstairs for some reason and watched an episode on accident. It was pretty cool, so I watched the first three last night. And actually, it's really badass. I love stuff where ordinary people are thrown into truly extraordinary situations - like in Lost, where the island they crash on seems to be inhabited by some huge creatures (or something, no one knows) that kill and chase them. You never see them, and you don't know what they are. A lot of weird shit seems to happen, and unexplained cool things are always a plus in any fantasy drama. The characters are really interesting as well. They reveal a lot of development through constant backstory interspersed with activity on the island. Very cool. So I'd recommend it, I enjoy it quite a bit.
