Number 1: Twenty Five | The West Wing Season 4 Finale
Leigh and Fi can't stop talking about Aaron Sorkin's final episode of the West Wing, "Twenty Five." Leigh wants to give Stockard Channing an EGOT for a single look. Fi can't stop crying about Toby Ziegler holding hands with his newborn twins. And Leigh and Fi have possibly their biggest ever disagreement over how the episode ends. With honourable mention to Dulé Hill for giving his most emotionally devastating performance yet, CJ Cregg's press briefing of a lifetime, and Sully from Monsters Inc for showing up in the West Wing as a slimy Republican.

Number 2: What Even is the Filibuster? | The West Wing Season 2 Episode 17
Like Sabrina Carpenter, the whole of the West Wing is working late because it’s Season 2, Episode 17, “The Stackhouse Filibuster.” CJ Cregg is entering a criminal conspiracy with Donna Moss over a missing cat statue and Toby Ziegler is Sam Seaborn’s all time favourite writer. Fi is emotionally moved by the “grandfathers all” of it all with Senator Stackhouse and Leigh wants you to know we have Hamilton’s own Aaron Burr to thank for the filibuster and the filibuster to thank for the continued presence of the electoral college in all our lives. With honourable mention to Sam Seaborn’s lost weekend in the Hamptons with his Tommy Hilfiger sweater boys and the genius of Donna Moss.

Number 3: Who Even is Harriet Tubman? | The West Wing Season 2 Episode 16
Big Block of Cheese Day has returned in the West Wing, Season 2 Episode 16, “Somebody’s Going to Emergency, Somebody’s Going to Jail.” Sam Seaborn is in his feelings listening to power ballads and Toby Ziegler is trolling protesters and flirting with cops. Fi is tantalized by Donna Moss’s gal pal being the granddaughter of a Soviet Spy and Leigh is chatting all things espionage with particular reference to Rose O’Neal Greenhow, Harriet Tubman and the Civil War. Because if you think Harriet Tubman’s story of bravery ended with the Underground Railroad, you’d be wrong.

Number 4: What Even is the Press Pool? | The West Wing Season 2 Episode 15
It’s a huge week for Leigh and Fi with the arrival of Eleanor Bartlet in “Ellie,” The West Wing Season 2, Episode. It’s the third Bartlet daughter the queer gals have been waiting for and she beyond delivers on middle-child angst. Fi is thrilled by the arrival of Surgeon General, Milicent Griffth, and the triumphant (and crackling) return of Toby Ziegler’s ex-wife, Andrea. After Ellie’s leak to the press, Leigh chats about the historic relationships between the First Family and the white house press pool. With honourable mention to some iconic first daughters, Alice Roosevelt and Eleanor Wilson.

Number 5: What Even is the War on Drugs? | The West Wing Season 2 Episode 14
Leigh and Fi talk all things “The War at Home,” the West Wing Season 2, Episode 14. We’ve got FLOTUS Abbey Bartlet absolutely taking Jed Bartlet to task in the White House kitchens and the POTUS back in the sit room in crisis. Inspired by the DEA agents in need of a rescue mission, Leigh is chatting the War on Drugs from the Opium Wars to President Reagan’s America to today. With honourable mention to the blossoming friendship of Mrs Landingham and Charlie Young.
