Yep, they cancelled it right before supposedly a Pubbie was supposed to be elected Pres. That said, I can't imagine Alan Alda playing a good Pubbie (they probably would have made him into an evildoer).

NBC Cancels Emmy-Winning 'West Wing' After Seven Seasons, Makes Several Midseason Moves

PASADENA, Calif. Jan 22, 2006 — The new president on "The West Wing" will be a real short-timer: NBC announced Sunday it was pulling the plug on the Emmy-winning political drama after seven seasons in May.

NBC, struggling to regain its footing after the worst season in its history, also outlined several midseason schedule changes including the moves of popular dramas "Law & Order" and "Las Vegas."

"The West Wing" announcement wasn't much of a surprise. Although this season's story line with a presidential campaign involving a Democrat played by Jimmy Smits and Republican portrayed by Alan Alda has been strong critically, ratings have sunk with its move to Sunday nights.

The decision to cancel it was made before actor John Spencer, who played former presidential chief of staff Leo McGarry, died of a heart attack Dec. 16, said Kevin Reilly, NBC entertainment president.

"There's a point when you look at the ratings and say, it feels like it's time," Reilly said.

The series finale will be May 14, preceded by a one-hour retrospective. The campaign to replace the fictional Josiah Bartlet as president will be settled, NBC said.

Producers Aaron Sorkin and Thomas Schlamme, who created the show and guided it through its early years, will not be involved in the finale, Reilly said.

"The West Wing" won four Emmy Awards for best television drama in a row for its tales of political intrigue. At its prime, it also offered NBC two valuable benefits: critical acclaim and the most upscale audience on television, an important drawing point for advertisers.

How was the premier?

Fantastic! 2 hours Sunday and 2 hours Monday. The fastest 4 hours in history. Nailbiting while sitting on the edge of my chair.

If they lived is any other state half of them would be convicts.

Only half? All of them are convicts as far as I am concerned.

Denver lost by 17. Cry me a river, loser.

Yeah ... frankly the way they played, dominated by the Steelers in every category, they're lucky to have lost by only 17 points. This is a team that hasn't lost at home all season. As far as the loser part ... stick it buddy. We'll be back.

I'm a product of the Warner Brothers college of sarcastic insults. I was schooled by Professor Bugs Bunny.

I remember you! You were a year behind me! : )

Professor Bunny was pretty strict...

It's okay to hope for a win by your team. I am from Pittsburgh, so am somewhat biased, but I would never predict a Steelers win on any given game day. I view most Steelers wins as a lower-grade miracle, always have.
