Leading up to the Big Day on Thursday I bring to you some of my favourite scenes from pretty much my favourite TV show, West Wing. Here’s a great bit between President Bartlet and his personal aid:

BARTLET
This time of the year there should be a hotline you can call with questions about cooking turkey. A special 800 number where the phones are staffed by experts.

CHARLIE
There is.

BARTLET
What do you mean?

CHARLIE
The Butterball hotline.

BARTLET
[pause, takes off his glasses and stares at Charlie]

Butterball has a hotline?

CHARLIE
Yeah. It’s an 800 number, the phones are staffed by experts.

BARTLET
Are you kidding me?

CHARLIE
No.

BARTLET
God, I’m sorry, I love my country.
