Love it. "I'm gonna cry," says Abby about the twins. Bet Jed was thinking "So am I," in that his staff seemed destined to not let him get laid on Election Night.
@@stewartmschwartz4759 They had three children and there was no indication that they ever chose to abort a pregnancy. They live by their values. They don't legislate their religion onto others.
This being the beginning of November, end of May would put Andi at about 7-8 weeks, give or take. That's not in any way a long time to wait before telling friends about a pregnancy. It's considered to be tempting fate to announce before then, since the vast majority of miscarriages occur in the first seven weeks, and we all know how Toby feels about tempting fate.
It's not "my Catholicism." Catholicism isn't a personal philosophy, it is a belief in the way the world exists, and this watering down of faith is not a good thing.
It's now 2024, we still have a dottering old guy and a probable criminal headed for jail if it was anyone else. I never wanted to live in a TV show more!! 😊
I have always wondered something about this scene - Why does Abbey chime in with "And me" there when Jed is talking about how Catholicism works for him?
Because religions are a lot like penises. They're a great thing to have, and something to be proud of, but when you pull it out and wave it in someone's face, there's a major problem...
"That's a lovely housecoat you're wearing." Funniest, most perfectly delivered line!
It's my Catholicism. It works for me. And me. And her.
Brilliant writing. And a lesson for us all. Religion is a personal and private thing.
"Don't you want to be out having fun, Charlie?""Yes, sir. But I work for YOU.""I get that a lot."
How can you not LOVE Stockard Channing?!?!! She's so spectacular.
Abbey loves every single one of her adopted West wing children. 😊
- Don’t you want to have fun?
- Yes Sir, but I work for you.
Priceless😂
Toby thought he got fired for snitching about the shuttle, but no, the president was remembering this.

Abbey always makes me laugh so much :') Coupled with the sarcasm & dry wit from either Leo or Toby, she can make a hilarious scene.
Toby doing the eldest kid routine with Jed and Abbey!
"Is that caviar?"
"Not really. No."
Fantastic line.
Oklahoma caviar. Served with a witty Montana Chardonnay
"I was this close." *snort*
Grace Skerp I actually snorted with laughter as well before reading your comment
That phenomenally awkward moment when you cockblock the president
This scene hits home for every married guy out there. Something always comes up 😂
Jed's thinking "Dammit, Toby you're the biggest buzzkill in the universe." 😂
*"I WAS >>>THIS
I LOVE the nod to quality farmed caviar. Subtle, yet effective.
I love his line about Catholicism. Perfection.
what Catholicism, they are both pro abortion

Love this show

End of May was conception not due date, hence Barlett asking "why didn't you tell us until now"
"Good evening, Mrs. Bartlet. Thats a lovely house coat you're wearing" 😅😅
Stockard Channing is so freaking amazing. xD
Stockard Channing has some SERIOUS legs. Between that and the way she sings in Grease makes me crazy. But in a good way
0:44. MOTHERF*****!!!!!
Then later when Sam wants to talk to him Jed is like "We're both men, and as men we have certain agreements between each other" to Charlie
I was intimidated by your Catholicism.
Really? Why? Its *My* Catholicism.
I might have actually used this when a similar situation occurred.
If only other catholics or any other religion said that.

@@BOLANAREDE321 Yes, it's much better to force your beliefs upon others... Do what you want but keep your opinions to yourself.
Joe McKim to do that would be morally wrong.
@@BOLANAREDE321 Get out of here with that religous bullshit. Ge good to other people but don't try to force your bullshit beliefs upon them.
“It’s my Catholicism, it works for me… did you break any laws?” Actual religious zealots, take note.
Stockard Channing is awesome....
Define 'frustration': Getting c*ckblocked by the affairs of the entire United States.
Since the presidency is one big act, can we PLEASE have Jed and Abby Bartlet in 2016. Seriously.
I am speaking to you from the future and lemme tell ya: we did NOT get a Bartlet presidency. Woof.
It's now 2024, we still have a dottering old guy and a probable criminal headed for jail if it was anyone else. I never wanted to live in a TV show more!! 😊
I HATE it when that happens.!
Coitus interruptus?
The twins ruined the last chance for Jed to get laid during his presidency.
I have always wondered something about this scene - Why does Abbey chime in with "And me" there when Jed is talking about how Catholicism works for him?
I think they were playing off of the fact that the actors are both Catholic.
@@jyun in name only
@@stewartmschwartz4759 yeaaah, probably better Catholics than you😅
Also didn't tell because still in the first trimester.
Lol in the real White House House jed would get a bill for all of that food. The president and the family pay for their own food
For what it's worth, the Bartletts are well off and it's a special occasion. (It's _supposed_ to be one, anyway....)
Jill Seufert you’ve stumbled on the real reason he ordered farmed caviar from the Americas and not wild caviar from the Caspian.
Why is he intimidate by the President's Catholicism but not by his own Judaism?
Because religions are a lot like penises. They're a great thing to have, and something to be proud of, but when you pull it out and wave it in someone's face, there's a major problem...
@Lancer525 Excellent answer.
Because he thought the President would disapprove of children born out of wedlock. He isn't concerned about his own practice of Judaism.
Don't worry, toby, Jed is a bad Catholic.
😂
