I love how Aaron Sorkin made Sam such a nerd. His middle name is Norman. He went to Dungeons and Dragons camp. He's a klutz. He has road maps memorized. He's nuts for dental hygiene. Ridiculous. Adorable.
These "Collections" are so valuable to me as a West Wing Lifer! I very much appreciate the time and effort spent in putting together these "Extended Clips" ! I also very much love reading the awesome, hilarious and insightful comments from the viewers! This Channel is My Oval Office! Thank You Everyone Involved! MOO From COW-lumbus, Ohio 👋
It is our pleasure to put these together! Thanks for being a constant viewer!!
@@TheWestWing Are these clips random throughout the series? Or are they in chronicle order?
Sam really was the moral compass. After he left it didn’t fit right. CJ and Josh and the President kind of sometimes took over the role, but Sam really did have the best heart, uncorrupted by politics, and I love how all the other characters just couldn’t quite stay mad at him and looked out for him. His relationship with Toby was the best
So sad that Sam only had three full season. He was my favorite character on the west wing
I felt that way at the time, but with hindsight Josh has become my favorite.
Agreed wish he was there for long haul, Rob Lowe didn’t like it
I think Rob liked it but others were pushed ahead of him. Like Amy 🤢
Yo, where my Toby heads at.
It was money
Sam was highest paid
And others were fairly low then everyone got a raise except Sam as he was already high paid and he said I will walk
Getting not only clips but hour+ long scene compilations? What an amazing channel this is.
It makes sense that CJ basically asks Josh to talk to Toby since he no longer works for the White House there is no legal implications if he talks to him on her behalf.
Thank you for this compilation.
I shutter to think how long it took.
☮
I love Margaret, Ainsley and all the side characters. My favourite is and always will be Toby because he's intelligent and real.
Thank you, my favorite show of all time. I own them all.
I totally don't drink alcoholic beverages, don't smoke, nor do I do drugs.
Yayyyy.. About time!!
Really wish he stayed at the White House as Comms Director with Toby becoming Senior Advisor to the President. Josh Malina could still come in as Deputy Communications Director.
Never would have happened with Rob Lowe eating so many sour grapes.
Wow, hearing CJ describe a filibuster sounds so quaint now. Remember when obstruction of legislation actually involved some effort, instead of just whining?
Leo and Sam were my favourite. The show lost something when Sam left and the passing of John Spencer was so sad, I never liked how they moved Leo away from The White House prior to John's passing
18:00 "Mr. President, your work-life balance still sucks."
Rob Lowe went on to play a Senator who married Callista Flockhart's ultra-conservative television political commentator on the series, "Brothers and Sisters". Sally Field played the mother of Flockhart's character as well as Dave Annable, Matthew Rhys, Rachel Griffith, and Balthazar Getty. Field's husband was played by Tom Skerrit, who fathered an illegitimate son played by Luke Grimes and an illegitiate daughter played by Emily Camp. A large family, and I think Sally Field was maybe twenty years older than these other actors, so her being their mother was a bit of a stretch. But Rob Lowe was a gorgeous politician.
Oh man I forgot about this series. That brings back some nostalgia.
It bothered me a lot that Josh thought that eliminating a useless, ubiquitous object that no longer serves a purpose to the general populace and only makes profit for the industry that produces it, like the pointless penny, is stupid.
He sounded like a jackass there.
For 'Sam Seaborn', it's a huge step up, from his previous job, as a lawyer protecting shipping companies from the consequences of making 'cheap designs'. Now he's 'protecting' the White House, on the daft decisions often made....?
All great clips but I really wanted Mallory and Sam together.
You shipped Sam and MALLORY ?
@@jimreily7538 absolutely. I would have been good with Sam and Ainsley too.
Sadly the filibuster rules have changed in the US Congress since this program was created.
More US one cent coins have been minted than all of the other coins in the world combined since coins were struck
Sam is excited to be here. Rob Lowe, on the other hand...
A call girl? What? I have no experience wiith Prostitution, or call girls.
I present to you: Sam Seaborn, the puff pastry
It’s hard to think that he is so liberal on here. And real life he is a trumper.
It is a pity Rob Lowe pissed all over his part in the show when he left. "Unappreciated, abusive environment" etc, etc. Some folks never know a great thing.
This is very nice of you, but why is there so many scenes without Sam?
Confused -wholelotta not-Sam here
What if Rob Lowe had stuck around? Will wouldn't have been brought in as a main character, probably only as a campaign operative like Bruno. So would he have become the new Toby instead of Will? Or would they have pushed him higher, maybe put him on the ticket in later seasons? Maybe run him for President instead of Santos?
Literally my dream West Wing scenario
Joshua molina was brought in, a sorkin favorite going back to a few good men and sportsnite
Are they up to speed,?
Hot tip, please put these in sequential order. ooh my was it hard to watch these as a fan of the show. ick.
Chronological too
Insider trading?
I would love to Charlie in action again.. Charlie and Zoey should have there happily ever after
I hate to say it.
But Rob Lowe REALLY (seems to have) messed up.
He had one of the greatest roles in US television history.
A starring/co-staring role as a brilliant, kind, humble, honorable, funny, immensely likeable man (forget his looks).
On one of the most well-written and respected dramatic shows in US history.
And somehow - and I am not sure how - he messed it up.
Maybe he did not get along with Sorkin.
But it sounds - from interviews - more like he let his ego get in the way.
He should have - imo - just let his character go wherever Sorkin wanted it to go.
And simply said 'Thank you, Sir. May I have another?'.
Plus, take whatever pay he got (I heard that was one of his problems) and appreciate the wonderful opportunity he had as an actor.
I am not saying Rob Lowe is a bad guy.
But I am saying that it is unfortunate that he had such a wonderful role that (apparantly) he did not fully appreciate.
☮
He got bored, he talks about it all the time on his podcast. Wanted to move on with different rolls. He ended up working with Sorkin a few years later in A Few Good Men play, so there is no beef between the two.
@@legolas59687 He never had a role like Sam again though. Which isn't to say he didn't have roles that would have paid him money. Then again many of the cast struggled to move on from TWW and being known as their characters.
@@legolas59687 I read this in an article about an interview from him:
'The actor called his decision to leave the the hit NBC drama “the best thing I ever did” in a podcast interview with Stitcher Studios’ Podcrushed, likening his time there to “a super unhealthy relationship.” Lowe says that he “felt very undervalued” on the show, adding: “I did not have a good experience.” He insists that he “tried to make it work,” but he ultimately compares it to a toxic romance: “I walked away from the most popular girl at school, but I also knew that it was a super unhealthy relationship, and it was the best thing I ever did.”'.
Sounds like he was more then 'bored' to me.
Especially where he said he: felt very undervalued'. Tells me his ego was the main reason he left.

@@chrisjones658 I had read that when the series was pitched, he was the main focus character and Bartlett was only meant to show up extremely rarely. But because of Martin Sheen, the audience wanted more, pushing the amount of screen time Sam had down, making him less important overall.
@@ScorpiusZA. I think even from the pilot episode, josh is set up to be the most likeable and relatable. Toby being the 2nd. CJ would probably be 3rd. Sam I'd imagine as a character isn't relatable to many. He's far too perfect. And we're routing for Josh from almost the 1st minute to keep his job.
Sam is a pleasant fellow, but to use a star wars comparisson, Sam might well be set up to be Luke Skywalker, but Josh is clearly Han Solo, who anyone who's relatively aware of the discourse around SW would admit is the real fan favourite.
When the Democratic party is having issues, all of a sudden there is a barage of West Wing Episodes everywhere, because a fictitious Presidency is the best they can display.
…the past week and a half indicates otherwise, but sure.
Kinda weird.
@justinchandler6045 they have Harris who talks like a valley girl abd obly is there because she will do what she is told.
