jeriendhalI have wierd thoughts when I'm operating on 3 hours of sleep. Like imagining the West Wing if it were produced in the mid-seventies by Quinn Martin, as an effort to bring some prestige back to the Presidency after the disaster of Watergate and in anticipation of the Bicentennial.
Starring
Rock Hudson as Sam Seaborn
Leonard Nimoy as Toby Ziegler
Bill Bixby as Josh Lyman
Harry Morgan as Leo McGarry
Mary Tyler Moore as CJ Creeg
Bea Arthur as Mrs. Landingham
Jimmie Walker as Charlie Young
And in a remarkable bit of stunt casting, hiring former Governor of California Ronald Reagan as President Bartlett, with his wife Nancy Reagan as Abby Bartlett, as he tries to revive his acting career coming off his failed attempt to win the '76 GOP nomination for President.
