Love the characters, the actors, the plot. I just stumbled across this on the H&I channel. I never saw it when it was current on air. Guess I was too busy working back then. I think it means as much now - if not more - than it did when it first aired. I sort of remember when there were major issues in DC. I remember the name Marion Berry in the news. I plan on doing some research on all this. I live in the south - so this wasn't something that I really kept up with on a daily basis. I've always liked Craig T Nelson & Lynn Thigpen. I hadn't realized that she had passed - much less during the filming of the series. I'm loving many of the shows on H&I!
