Rewatching The West Wing dvds for what must be the 20th time and can't decide who would be best husband material.

Which would you chose?

Josh

But Sam, really.

jumpyjack · 26/05/2011 20:16

Toby. Definitely. Josh is too jittery. Would irritate me with his nervous energy and endless talking. Not Santos or Sam. Too smooth. Too much hair product Grin.

Charlie a little young for me Chair, but I did have a distinct moment for Santos when he strode out to his plane in his airforce uniform, all grinning and purposeful, after they pulled off that little trick with him turning up for his army service early.

I had not noticed Leo's wedding ring Ohmeo, that is quite sad. Did he wear it all the way through? I think balancing his utter devotion to the president, the COS job and a marriage would be almost impossible though.

Toby.
We have BartletNet here somewhere - there's a thread.

Toby.

Actually, probably CJ...

BananaGio · 27/05/2011 06:24

Josh. Although his hair verged on the ridiculous at times. But he can follow me into a lift any time!
With Toby as my best mate.

Doonhamer · 27/05/2011 08:15

Josh, but if I really had to choose it would be President BartlettBlush

ChairOfTheBored · 27/05/2011 08:25

Sorry! But y'know, I had to try. Grin

DH is going away this weekend, I foresee much time on the sofa watching the Wing with wine.

Then frantic scoot round with hoover to earn my 'stopping at home doing chores' martyrs badge.

bigkidsmademe · 27/05/2011 19:42

What is it about Will that makes him so utterly unattractive?

Josh for me, Toby as drinking and sparring partner

Matsikula · 27/05/2011 21:07

Josh, no question. so rumpled. even Sam wouldn't get a look- in as he was just never quite credible as a nerd.

jumpyjack · 27/05/2011 21:33

Will got terrible dialogue and a bad haircut, and was deeply unattractive as a result, IMO. He was always stating the obvious and seemed to get the lines Donna would have got earlier in the series where they felt someone needed to ask a question to clarify for viewers what was going on. Very unappealing.

schroeder · 27/05/2011 22:13

Check out 'sports night' to truly appreciate Will (Joshua Malina).

bigkidsmademe · 28/05/2011 10:27

He just makes me cringe. So EAGER.

IslaValargeone · 28/05/2011 11:40

As previously stated on here, I'm a bit of a Toby gal myself, however, I had a bit of a funny moment where Josh is in the hospital with Donna. I could have done him theren and there Blush
Don't tell me any more though a I'm a first time Winger, and can't cope with spoilers.

IslaValargeone · 28/05/2011 11:41

I meant there and then, see, even thinking about it makes me lose control of my faculties.

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 28/05/2011 11:45

I could do Toby on the spot when he talks about how he hates the beach: 'I like a hotel. I like a good concierge.'

IslaValargeone · 28/05/2011 11:59

OOh yes, I liked that. I could get quite carried away thinking about dinner for two in a nice hotel, Toby being all masterful and angst ridden about something. Drinking a fine wine, getting rogered senseless and him having a cigar afterwards, I love it when he has a cigar. wonders if I'm ovulating

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 28/05/2011 12:08

As long as he had a spare cigar for me!

DownyEmerald · 28/05/2011 20:24

Neither of them for husband.

But I would do Josh, but it wouldn't work long term he is too manic for me.

Toby would be the lifelong friend with just that little frisson of sexual attraction.

CJCregg · 28/05/2011 21:16

I would shag them all, including Bartlet, but no way husband material.

Found the scenes when Josh sparred with Amy disturbingly hot, then realised I'd never have the political nous to be able to rise to that kind of standard Sad

BornToFolk · 28/05/2011 21:17

"Toby would be the lifelong friend with just that little frisson of sexual attraction."

Yes, exactly. I think Josh would be far too needy in a relationship. There's a scene when he's getting together with Amy and he says that he worked so hard in college he missed out at all that relationship stuff and so he's not very good at relationships. It would be like going out with a teenager.
I don't think Toby would be much better, to be fair, but he's much more grown up.
Plus, I have a thing for beardy men. Blush

Scarletbanner · 29/05/2011 10:57

Both! Josh first. And neither would be a long-term bet. But who cares?!

handsomeharry · 29/05/2011 13:10

Greedy scarlet! Grin
