Sam Seaborn or Josh Lyman?

Sam is the obvious one and is especially charming in his defence of Ainsley Hayes in season 2, but Josh is growing on me, despite his weird hair.

Lilipot fortunately my dh does not have a brother! He loves Toby and very much identifies with him, which amuses me. He also has Toby's good points, such as being passionate about and very good at his job - it's not all the sadness and cynicism :)

And no, poor old Sam didn't have sex with a call girl - he was single, and met a woman! (Who happened to be a call girl, but that's beside the point.) Perfectly trustworthy. Probably quite ridiculously trustworthy tbh.

Josh every time. Sam is like a Ken doll.

chipsandpeas · 09/10/2015 18:39

was sam to begin with then josh slowly wins

LuluJakey1 · 09/10/2015 20:58

He did- in episode 1 series 1. Laurie was a call girl.

LuluJakey1 · 09/10/2015 21:01

DH is a Josh and Toby combined. He is more of a Josh at the moment but will become more of a Toby as he gets older- immovable morality and values that he will argue the toss about until the end even if he self-destructs.

ApplesTheHare · 09/10/2015 21:03

Josh every time!

CalebWomble · 09/10/2015 23:22

Yes, Laurie was an expensive prostitute, but Sam didn't know that when he met her! He didn't pay her. He did nothing to make you not trust him. Hmm

MarjorieWinklepicker · 09/10/2015 23:29

DH and I are currently re watching TWW. Midway through season 4 atm.

Gotta be Josh for me every time my DH looks a bit like him.

SelfRaisingFlour · 10/10/2015 17:00

Santos.

A bit off topic, but Rob Lowe is brilliant in Parks & Recreation.

Fiderer · 10/10/2015 17:39

I used to think Toby but - am re-watching and the always wearing brown would kill it.

Sam is pretty but he leaves and I can't forgive him for that.

Josh is too Josh.

So now, I'm for Danny.

mrsleomcgary · 10/10/2015 19:00

Despite my name, can i be greedy and have them both? preferably at the same time

FreeButtonBee · 10/10/2015 19:11

Josh. Always.

I couldn't be with a man who spends more time in the bathroom than me and you know Sam is in there half the morning

lorelei9 · 10/10/2015 19:19

I love Josh but Sam wins.

Never thought Danny was good enough for CJ but CJ is so brilliant, I don't know who would be good enough.

I didn't know John Spencer was in LA Law, maybe I should watch that, but there's so much to watch.

JeffsanArsehole · 10/10/2015 19:21

Toby or Charlie

With a side order of one of the worlds most beautiful women, Abby Bartlett

ThomasRichard · 10/10/2015 21:48

I see Josh in pyjamas!

I love Amy.

All of the men. Love them all.

CJ is a great role model.

[S2 spoiler] I've got as far as the ep where Mrs Landingham leaves the show sob.

CiderwithBuda · 10/10/2015 23:55

Sam.

I'm old and remember Rob Lowe from the 80s.

I love josh but am to impatient! Not prepared to wait that long. Grin

Fiderer · 11/10/2015 07:56

Oh my. How could I forget Special Agent Sunshine? Sam & Josh are like Bingo Bob compared to him.

wtffgs · 11/10/2015 11:22

Ahem!

Matt Santos is mine

As you were Grin

CalebWomble · 11/10/2015 12:50

(OT but I am loving Jimmy Smits in Sons of Anarchy Grin )

wtffgs · 11/10/2015 17:05

Jimmy Smits could make instant mashed potato adverts and I would watch them

I do like Sam and Cliff Callley plus Matthew Perry was much hotter in TWW than in Friends. Minor part, but the mixed race Secret Service guy who guards Bartlet is cute as is Arnie Vinnick's Latino adviser who quits because he can't face campaigning against another Latino.

I haven't repeatedly watched TWW too much!! Oh no! Not me!! No siree!!

Isthiscorrect · 11/10/2015 18:41

Sam Sam super Sam all the way. And I really really dislike Amy, far too smug for my liking.

carabos · 11/10/2015 20:37

It was Josh until the episode where CJ does the thing and Toby stands watching while smoking a big cigar.

Mynameismummy · 11/10/2015 20:43

Jed Bartlet. I have a thing for older men. Wish they'd bring back the WW!
