Today requires a double dose of Ziegler.
17. A scene that made you laugh so much that your stomach hurt.
I tried to find the bit at the end of “Inauguration 2” with the snowballs because it is just SO adorable, but I wouldn’t find it. So I went with this old stanby, which is no less valid and hilarious. I’m seriously thinking about getting a dog.
14. Best moment of your favorite male character. (part 2)
Screw it, it’s Thanksgiving, so I’m posting again, to represent Toby, in his part of the comedy stylings of Bartlet and Ziegler, from “The Indians In The Lobby”. (btw, it turns out that the Butterball Hotline is a real thing, and I came THIS close to calling them this year, on principle)
5. Second favorite episode.
“Evidence of Things Not Seen”.
Mostly because this challenge doesn’t contain a “favourite BroTP” question, and I love CJ and Toby’s interaction in this SO much.
Also, I’m saving S2 for future days.
2. Favorite male character.
Let me state right off the bat that there isn’t a single one that I don’t LOVE. And there’s no way I can pick just one, and also that President Bartlet is in a class by himself.
That said, these are my two favourite guys -



C.J.: So, the 4H convention.
Toby: We’re not going.
C.J.: I don’t get it. how can you not want to see the butter cow?
Toby: I’m that way.
C.J.: You understand it’s a life-size cow made entirely of butter?
Toby: We’re not going.
C.J.: There’s also a butter Elvis and a butter Last Supper which has, I swear to God, Toby…
Toby: Butter on the table?
C.J.: It’s got butter on the table! Right there between butter James and butter Peter. An almost mind-blowing vortex of art and material that dares the viewer to recall Marcel Duchamp.
Toby: How do they keep it from melting?
C.J.: How indeed?The West Wing 3x12 - “The Two Bartlets”
