The Greatest Political Drama Series Of All Time Is Now On Netflix

by

Good news for fans of political dramas: the critically acclaimed series is now streaming on Netflix. While much of the recent talk about Netflix has focused on Warner Bros. and HBO being acquired, it wasn’t a simple process. Paramount made a late attempt to buy them instead, but Netflix ultimately won. The situation is still developing, and we might see a few more unexpected twists before everything is settled.

Everyone is continuing with their normal plans for providing entertainment. For Netflix, that means releasing its usual lineup of new shows and movies this week, including both original content and titles they’ve licensed. Interestingly, one new arrival on the platform hasn’t received much promotion, despite the already large number of options available.

All seven seasons of the popular drama The West Wing, created by Aaron Sorkin, will be streaming on Netflix starting December 9th. The show, which originally aired from 1999 to 2006 and has 154 episodes, was previously available on Netflix until 2020 when it moved to Max. Now, after five years, fans can once again watch it on Netflix.

With today’s political landscape and people’s fascination with what goes on inside the White House, The West Wing is a great show to watch all the way through. The popularity of shows like The Diplomat, House of Cards, Designated Survivor, and The Crown suggests The West Wing will likely find a new audience—though it never really faded away in the first place.

As a total TV fan, let me tell you about The West Wing. It’s a show I absolutely adore that follows President Josiah Bartlet, a Democrat, throughout his two terms in office. Martin Sheen is fantastic as the president, but honestly, what really makes this show special is the incredible cast – it’s easily one of the best ensembles ever put on television. Every character feels fully realized, with their own complex personal and professional lives, which makes the whole series so compelling. And it wasn’t just me who thought so! It racked up an amazing number of awards, with a whopping 98 Emmy nominations and 27 wins, including four years in a row as Outstanding Drama.

Many consider The West Wing to be one of the greatest TV shows ever made, and it truly stands out even among other political dramas. While it presents a somewhat optimistic and hopeful view of politics, its excellent writing, strong acting, and fast-paced energy – which accurately reflects the experience of working in the White House – make it a compelling watch for fans of the genre. And now, it’s even easier to enjoy, as The West Wing is now available on Netflix.
