'West Wing' cast reunites at Emmys 2024, pushes for voter registration.

Sunday’s Emmys 2024 ceremony had us screaming, “Bartlet for America!”

“The West Wing” stars Martin Sheen, Allison Janney, Dulé Hill, Richard Schiff, Janel Moloney took the Emmys stage to present the award for outstanding drama series.

The cast began the segment huddle around the famed Resolute desk in a recreation of the Oval Office before celebrating the show’s 25th anniversary. The beloved and critically acclaimed NBC series, created by legendary scribe Aaron Sorkin, ran from September 22, 1999 to May 14, 2006.

The cast joked about how Sorkin and his fellow writers on the show had to “actually use their imagination” to come up with plot lines as opposed to today when, as Schiff put it, “storylines can be plucked right off the news.”
