Anyone know what all the new buildings going up around Save On and the Bus Station are

There’s a big new building going up across from the Synergy Health Center.

We have a sign for the Nourish Center, but I’m not sure what that is.

The old Fabric Land next to the Lube City is getting a new tenant and it got an orange and black color scheme.

There’s also something going up next to the Mailboxes Etc across from Save on

Anyone know what going into these places?

Your unpopular West Wing opinion

Doing my first rewatch in about 4 years and I noticed something for the first time that is def going to be an unpopular opinion.

Everyone loves the Sorkin seasons and the general consensus is that the post Sorkin seasons are not as good.

This is the first time I’ve really been disappointed in season 4.

I know why Rob Lowe wanted to leave. He was expecting to be the lead (look at his placement in the opening credits, he’s the only one not listed alphabetically). But with the ensemble Sorkin put together Rob Lowe ended up being the weakest most immature of the staff. Sending him off to lose an election and then not explaining why he didn’t come back is very much a missed opportunity.

I absolutely hate the Zoe storyline for this season. It adds nothing of depth to the series as a whole.

Season 5 has my favourite episode of the whole series the Supremes. Will Bailey is actually a better character than Sam was. There are lots of things to like about season 5,6 and 7. So my unpopular opinion is season 4 is the worst season of the series. This is the first time I’ve really felt this way. But there it is.

What are yours

Doing my first rewatch in a few years and I know there are inconsistent moments in the series but I can’t remember them all. The one I noticed recently is in season 1. In 20 Hours in L.A when they’re at the party CJ is approached by a Hollywood type who wants to offer her a job in development. She says she has no idea what that is and tells Sam after she has no idea what that is. At the end of the season when we’re having the flashback where Toby goes to hire CJ we see her get fired from her public relations job in Hollywood in the movie business. There is no way CJ doesn’t know what a development job was.

What moments stand out to you that en up being goofs or retconned entirely.

Doing a rewatch for the first time in about 4 years. I’d kind of forgotten how hardcore the glasses acting is in this show. I cannot think of another show that has people taking their glasses on and off more. I can tell by the finger prints on them most people aren’t actual glasses wearers. Not only that but they leave them on their desk or the table all the time. White House staff must spend half their life tracking down their glasses in the White House.

What are your favourite West Wing eccentricities that you don’t really see in other shows. Sorkin eccentricities are fair game.
