I've been getting back into The West Wing, yes it's old and a tad dated but I do believe it's got a strong cast and great dynamics. I used to watch episodes here and there about 10=5 years back but now I'm sitting down and watching the show from start to finish, despite what people say about Sorkin leaving. I am 24, and even so, my knowledge about politics and military is well, lacking. But now that I'm older, the show is able to make a good deal more sense to me than when I was a teenager, seeing stray episodes with my parents or during my Government class in high school.
I am in the middle of season two, I'm estimating I'll be fully done by the time August rolls around but it's not that important since I'd prefer to work within the first 1-3 seasons when we start things off. I think the pacing is good, since each episode only highlights the important events but since this is two writers, I'd like our pacing to be more slow and drawn out for the sake of development. I am aware not many people have even seen the show and those who have, probably don't want to bother roleplaying it.
To add some incentive, I'd be open to doing a crossover with Parks and Rec.
At their core, both shows do spend a great deal in politics but I also think that human relationships play a slightly more major role in both tv shows. I am looking for mostly West Wing but again, if you'd like to combine both shows, I'd be open. And if perhaps you're just looking for Parks and Rec, the plot would need to be really good, since in my mind the last season was perfect and things worked out fairly well for everyone involved. (Except when Jen had to be around children.)
Overall, I am looking for someone who is able to post 1-3 times a week and alright with me doing about the same. Casual or Advanced writers can apply but considering the serious content, I would be more comfortable with someone Advanced and someone who is slightly more political savvy than I am. If not, we will be spending a lot of time OOC talking about the various Bills, issues, press statements, military directions, and other complex real life shit.
I'll say I'm heavy on the CJ x Danny bandwagon at the moment, so if someone wants to be the scruffy Danny, I'd happily play Josh or Sam for you in return. And if we're talking Parks and Rec, I could probably handle anyone if needed. OCs will be needed for whatever we do, but I'd prefer if they're not the main characters unless we double because blatant fanservice is annoying and unfair.
If I need to go over more pairs I'd be into, roles or plots I might have, just ask although I'd prefer to talk with my partner, than at then.
