Edit cast list for:
The West Wing: Season 2 (2000)?
Trivia:
In the Shadow of Two Gunmen: Part I - In the DVD commentary it is mentioned that when shooting the scene in which Donna learns about Josh's serious injury, `~4779~`, instead of using the line in the script, told `~7164~`, playing Donna, that "`~7765~` died", prompting her absolutely devastated expression in the scene. Somebody's Going to Emergency, Somebody's Going to Jail - Josh mentions to Sam that Lincoln signed a pardon on April 14, 1865, the same day he was shot. Until over a decade after this episode was filmed, historians thought this was true. However, in January 2011, Lincoln researcher Thomas Lowry admitted that he had altered the date of the pardon (which he had "discovered" in the permanent records of the U.S. National Archives) from 1864 to 1865 so that it would seem more historically significant. Two Cathedrals - In the flashbacks a young Jed Bartlett is seen as a student at a school where a younger version of Mrs. Landingham is seen as an adult working for Bartlett's father. In reality `~6924~` who plays president Bartlett and `~17068~` who play Mrs. Landingham, the president's secretary, were only born a year apart. `~17068~` was born in 1939 and `~6924~` was born in 1940. Two Cathedrals - The role of Bartlet's father was played by series producer and writer `~17145~`. Originally just drafted in to help out at a table read, director `~17045~` found O'Donnell's interpretation of the President's father to be so interesting that he eventually offered him the role. The Leadership Breakfast - `~17093~` appears as a guest after starring in `~17046~`'s @##Sports Night##@. Bartlet's Third State of the Union - Bartlett stopping to tie his shoe was improvised by `~6924~` The character of Mandy (`~17064~`) was abandoned after the first season. `~17046~` and Kelly both agreed that the character had run its course. However, Sorkin never explained on the show what happened to Mandy. The character just disappeared. This gave birth to the term "Mandyville", a reference to where characters go, when they disappear from a series. Galileo - President Clinton allowed use of his President's Box at the Kennedy Center for scenes in this episode. Noël - `~17097~` plays a cello piece. Instead of miming the motions of the song to recorded music, however, he actually played the song for each take. According to director `~17045~`, this amounted to playing the song about 45 times. The War at Home - At the beginning of the episode the President says to Leo "`~9161~` said 'you don't live longer, it just seems longer.'" They then debate if it was really Shaw who said it. The correct quote is by `~Sir Clement Raphael Freud~` who said "if you resolve to give up smoking, drinking and loving, you don't actually live longer; it just seems longer." 17 People - This episode has the smallest number of additional guest stars of any other episode in the entire series, namely just Emily Procter. The Leadership Breakfast - Josh and Sam try to light a fire in a White House fireplace only to find that it is only decorative when they set the fire alarms off. In January 2009, life imitated art when the Obama administration's new Director of the Office of Management and Budget, `~Peter R. Orszag~`, tried to light a fire in a fireplace in his office that filled other office suites with smoke and set the fire alarms off. In the Shadow of Two Gunmen: Part I - This episode contains the highest number of guest stars of any other in the entire series. The Portland Trip - Ainsley tries to get a can of Fresca, but they do not keep Fresca in the building. According to historian Doris Kearns Goodwin, Lyndon Johnson loved the soda Fresca so much he had a fountain installed in the Oval Office that dispensed the beverage, which the president could operate by pushing a button on his desk chair. Galileo - The storyline about President Bartlett not liking green beans was inspired by President Bush Sr who famously banned broccoli from the White House In This White House - The number that displays on Ainsley's caller ID when the White House calls is (202) 456-1414. That is the real world telephone number of the White House switchboard. Shibboleth - When President Bartlet asks the Chinese man seeking religious asylum whether he can name any of Jesus' (12) apostles, he lists only 11 names. Technically, this is not incorrect: two were named James. The set was the largest constructed for both a pilot and a television series to date. It was so large, that during the first season, it had to be housed on two stages, each with an identical yellow corridor for continuity. During the hiatus between the first and second seasons, the set was moved to a larger stage, and put together, where it has remained ever since.
