This was the first year I participated in the Purim Gifts exchange and I received three wonderful West Wing fics from Seekingferret:

Pilot [Getting The Commandments Right Remix]. From the first time I saw it, I thought that last five minutes of the Pilot episode for The West Wing was the best five minutes of television ever created. This fic reminded me that yes, it they are still the best five minutes of television.

The Day Before [the Am Yisrael Remix]. Watching The West Wing during the George W. Bush years was a welcome respite from the sneering anti-intellectualism that permeated the White House. The fictional president, Jed Bartlet, was a man of insatiable intellectual curiosity, often to the dismay of his senior staff. And when it came to matters of religion, his ability to fall down the rabbit hole was unmatched.

20 Hours in America [The Acheinu Kol Beit Yisrael remix]. As much as The West Wing enjoyed the big picture, the issues - it was the small and quiet moments between extraordinary and extraordinarily decent people that made the show such an addictive pleasure.

Please go read these three short ficlets. If you aren't familiar with The West Wing, you may just find yourself a new fandom. If you are already a fan, you'll swear that these scenes are really canon. Seekingferret captured the moments and the voices impeccably.
