Why didn’t we ever do that?’” Whitford inspired a “West Wing” reunion earlier today when his fellow castmates Martin Sheen, Dulé Hill, Mary McCormack and Josh Malina joined him at the unveiling of his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Things are so outlandish, I don’t know how you dramatize any of that. With him writing, it would be a lovely thing to hopefully steer the collective consciousness of our society back toward humanity and connectivity and understanding.” “The West Wing” premiered on NBC in 1999 and ran for seven seasons before ending in 2006.
The ensemble also included Rob Lowe, Allison Janney, Richard Schiff, John Spencer, Janel Moloney and Stockard Channing. The series won 27 Emmy Awards from 95 nominations.
