I started to, but then didn't. :)

Oh yeah. You know ANY show has jumped when it starts to resemble "Charmed" in any way, shape or form.

That's very much what I was afraid of.
But it's possible that it can jump back... right? Right?

If the stupid witch storyline had not tied in so directly with the overall arc (the tattoo, the manuscript, the stones of power, etc.) then I would say it's possible to jump back. You could chalk it up to monster-of-the-week syndrome.
But no take-backs after this. My disbelief has been officially unsuspended. Which is a pity, because the acting remains solid, but the scripts are fucking crap.

Thankfully, West Wing pulled it out at the last second and squeaked out another good episode. I hope the new characters pan out.

See, and I just bailed out on West Wing this week. After what you told me about Leo, I said enough is enough. I don't wanna know from new characters.
