This is a beautiful reenactment of one of the most brilliant shows ever to grace TV. To see the cast back together although not complete was heartwarming. However, the entire production tripped itself up in a key element of this reunion. Near the beginning Rob Lowe and Allison Janney inform the audience that this is created in the spirit of the organisation 'When we all Vote,' apparently a non-partisan org. This couldn't be more partisan if it tried. From the attempts to present subtle democratic messages about 'Orangemanbad' to the use of celebrity more or less infomercials, it makes me cringe to see a show that used to be about a reasonable and fair democratic administration try to promote the rubbish the democrats have become today. Could have and should have been a lot better but I guess we live in an age where Hollywood can't seperate itself from the far-left.
