A new season begins with much more excitement that follows the daily activity and struggle of the staff of the West Wing in the White House, who do their best to balance between their personal and professional life. In this new season, Josh struggles against making a horrible mistake that will lead to the destruction of the whole organization.
The West Wing is stocked with great characters and truly wonderful actors. That, more than anything Wells did in this first episode, is the reason it's still important and rewarding to watch The West Wing.
