NBC’s political drama The West Wing comes to a close tonight at 8pm. While we haven’t taken the time to plan elaborate viewing parties, a couple of us at DCist are feeling slightly nostalgic about the series. Since NBC wouldn’t fork over the dollars for an hour long retrospective of the shows highlights, we decided to chime in with our own picks. Keep reading for our picks of the best episodes of the series and let us know your own top five in the comments section. If you need us, we’ll be holed up with our season 1 and season 2 DVDs for just a little while longer.
