Charlie Owes Money | The West Wing 

Never start a sentence with a conjunction! James Bond taught me that.

@@Mackinstyle ATF Agent in beavis and butthead had a better thing. Never end a sentence with a preposition

I thought it said, "We still need you."

It said “I am alone tonight...."

Let Bartlett be Bartlett.

We don't deserve him. 330 million people in America and look what we've got to select from; too old or too evil.

Wouldn't Superman be a better choice ?

Ngl even knowing he had MS I would have voted for him

Because he is too smart. Today’s electorate wouldn’t vote for him and the media wouldn’t give him the time of day.

The same reason we cannot have Richard Nixon. Well, not the same but you get the point.

"Toga! Toga! Toga!"

lol.......we watched Animal House 4 times one night and drinking all night .....back in the day i always liked another film he was in UP the Creek....happy days

I’m not going to sit here and listen to you badmouth the United States of America!

@@belvert1 Or take liberties with some of your women...we did.

I had a think about this and my conclusion is that i agree, when I see him I always think 'oh yeah I forgot about the vice president'

Once Aaron Sorkin left early in the fourth season, the writing and characters changed. It went more towards typical tv drama moments. The Will Bailey character was all over the place. They had no idea what to do with him. But Toby’s ending was the worst.

@@danhiatt150 sorry but Sorkin left at the end of the 4th season.

@@MortenGallagher I stand corrected. But the point is there was a definite shift in the writing and character development after Sorkin left. Still good, but different and they did mess up several characters like I mentioned above.

Sorkin actually wrote the VP's resignation and he needed to to fulfill his season 4 cliffhanger goal: He wanted a Republican to take over when the President stepped away as his daughter was kidnapped. He needed there to be no VP at that point because a Republican speaker's taking over was a far better story line.

Agree Hoynes appeared to be built up just to sort of go nowhere. Interestingly, Sorkin said the whole reason he had to get Hoynes 'out of the way' is because he wanted to do the Republican speaker takes over storyline. I imagine if he wanted to keep Hoynes, this episode wouldn't have taken place at all.

Could have been Walken taking over during a bad MS episode.

Hoynes already took over as interim President during the cold open of season 2's first episode, so that charge has already been fired.

@@LabradorIndependent Yes, but doing that is a legitimate technique: the misdirect. But, you sure better stick the landing of the replacement character.

Absolutely!

The Wire.

Sopranos, NYPD Blue, Breaking Bad enter the chat.

You can binge the entire series whenever you like on HBO/Max!

and disguise it by being snooty about it.

The AI bot posting these has no sense of what to include or what is relevant or how to make the clips make any sense at all.

@@chuckdecker3765 get off the sauce you weirdo.

What's the best part?

@@luisguillermojg Barlett calling the plurality of voters who chose him suckers

No no, it's when Charlie gets that woman on the phone to speak with Donna!!! Oh my God that's one of the best scenes EVER!!!!

Here's the scene with Donna I was talking about ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-InJ23OG7sn8.htmlsi=ykG7rj8eFFwCPAtK

Every clip this channel posts cuts the best part out. I don't know why they are butchering the show like this. Someone needs to put a stop to them

"Because I could die"

Because I could die

My cucumber is bigger

"Meet me out back"

$35k a year in 2002 money is about $64k today, which is nearly $20k above the US average personal income of 48k. Not saying that Charlie doesn’t deserve all the money ever, but given that his job amounts to being the President’s butler I think an income that places him firmly in the middle class is fine.

Unions don't and can't exist as a federal employee.

​@@keithduvall812Are you serious? Plenty of Federal employees are in unions.

This channel is terrible. Someone needs to fix how bad they are botching these clips.

“Would it have killed you to go to Banana Republic?”

The whole story of Charlie's tax return is funny and very sweet in the end. This was not a great clip posted here. They missed the whole thing of Jed and Leo jokingly asking for Charlie to immediately pay the taxes he owed.

No. Reality is almost never a greater story than fiction, that's the point of fiction. In our case it's merely a more insane story.

@@aaronleverton4221

@@SeattlePioneer The fact that a plurality of people lived through four years of Trump and want to voluntarily do it again is insane.

Insane? Really? You think half the voters in the country are INSANE? The Republican Party just completed the process of again nominating Trump as it's candidate for President. Compare that to the process of nominating Biden to again be the nominee of the Democratic Party, with Biden having received 14 million votes in the primaries. How would you characterize THAT? You seem a little unsteady yourself ---and so does the Democratic Party, or at least it's leadership.

Also, thank you for these.

You're so far behind in the comment race, you think you're winning. I was first 15 minutes before you, I rounded you on the track. But RU-vid deleted my comment thus, making you the nominal winner.

A list of the most pointless and useless comments on RU-vid includes "First", "Who is listening in [insert random recent year here]? and the lie "I am [insert youthful age here] years old and I love this old music/hate modern/current music". With an honourable mention to "[I will now quote something everybody heard being said in the video] without giving any kind of context, annotation or further explanation of any kind."

Haha, nerds
