18OctWelcome Aboard, Mr. President…

For the past few weeks my father has been busy working away in Chester, working Monday til Friday and returning home on Friday night or Saturday and this weekend he brought me somewhat of an unbeatable present.

As I’m sure you’re aware, I do love my TV shows. I really do. I buy, or collect as some might say (when does it become correct to use the term collect rather than buy?) TV boxsets, primarily of American heritage as I prefer US dramas to those created here in the UK for the most part, they are more watchable.
Despite some of the TV shows I own, there has always been two shows I’ve wanted more than any other and I intentionally waited for these shows to retire so that I could get my hands on the collectors edition, much like I did with both Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel, the first is Six Feet Under, the other one I was bought…

Well, this Friday my father came home with the one I wanted more than any others:

I’ve always wanted to see The West Wing and I know it may come as a surprise to many of you that I wanted it so much without seeing it, but I know it’s a brilliant show and I know I will love it. I often buy TV Boxsets without seeing them and this is something I really can’t wait to watch!

This is just about the best present I could have been bought. I’m going to finish off Point Pleasant and I’m going to finish of Dexter Season 1, then I’m going to get on with enjoying this.
