I just finished watching Season 2 of “The West Wing.” They killed off Mrs. Landingham which is good ’cause she was kinda redundant. But if I wanted to read into it (and “The West Wing” is, for the most part, good enough to want to read into) her death represents President Bartlett’s final severence with his New Hampshire past and his Clinton-esque legal troubles represent his wholehearted acceptance of Washington politics. I’m only 4 seasons behind, but I can’t wait for Season 3 to be released on DVD.
