One of my favorite lines from is an exchange between the President and a speechwriter when weighing military intervention:

President Bartlet: “Why is a kundanese life worth less to me than an American life?”

Will Bailey: “I don’t know, sir, but it is.”

It came to mind when I heard the Israeli hostage rescue in which two were saved and ~80 Palestinians died in the companion strikes.

I am compelled to point out that in the season three Thanksgiving episode, Mollie Orshansky is described as a Polish-born immigrant, whereas in reality she was born in New York to a refugee family that escaped Ukraine. So now you know.

I don't care for the obsession people have for long scenes without cuts... But one that lives in the heart are the west wing scenes.

There are some fun hidden details in Fringe. For instance, in the parallel universe of the series, when the Observers come out of the movie theatre after having watched Back to the Future, Eric Stoltz is listed as the main actor (episode 2x15).

Stoltz was in fact initially cast as Marty McFly, and they recorded several scenes with him before he was replaced by Michael J. Fox. Apparently, that didn't happen in the parallel universe 😁

@rayckeith Just spotted the poster. It's in Fringe season 2, episode 21, and it announces season 11 of the West Wing. The West Wing ran for 7 seasons. 😊
