i regret not being on the "west wing." as much as you love it, i love it more. i would have played sam till i was 70. i would have been like the larry king of the "west wing." >> also the characters that were in the show, the people that you worked with, the whole thing, it was magical television. >> it was unbelievable. and it ended up being a great experience. i have zero bitterness or score settling. i'm friends with everybody. aaron and i have worked together since. i look back on it as one of the high water marks. somebody asked me earlier today, you know, if i could pick whatever and put nit a time capsule to show, it would be seasons one and two of "the west wing" and the book. >> i agree with you. if i was you, i think the same thing.
