　　Season 3: 2001–2002
　　Cast: Rob Lowe, Stockard Channing, Dulé Hill, Allison Janney, Janel Moloney, Richard Schiff, John Spencer, Bradley Whitford and Martin Sheen
　　The third season, which covers the administration's third and fourth years in office, starts off with Bartlet announcing his intention to run for reelection and is heavily devoted to the upcoming presidential election. Other prominent plotlines include Congressional investigations into whether Bartlet committed electoral fraud by concealing his MS, a death threat against C.J. and the ensuing relationship she develops with a Secret Service agent assigned to her, the Qumari defense minister Abdul Shareef plotting terrorist attacks against the US, and a troubling meeting between Toby and the President that leaves Bartlet with a bout of insomnia in "Night Five." The season finale, "Posse Comitatus" closes several of these storylines as Bartlet meets his opponent in the elections and reaffirms his commitment to beat him. The episode ends with the president finally deciding to order Shareef's assassination (a legally questionable act) and C.J.'s agent's murder, just after the man threatening C.J. was caught.
　　From a critical perspective, series creator Aaron Sorkin acknowledged in October 2002 that the terrorism-related plots designed to keep the series relevant after the real-life 9/11 attacks were awkward at times, saying "from week to week, you felt like you were writing the show handcuffed, a little bit. I didn't know how to write it anymore. It was a constant search for what I wasn't doing that used to make the show work. [...] Maybe there was a way to make it work; there probably was. I wasn't able to find it in twenty-two episodes." [1] Nonetheless, the show went on to win its third "Outstanding Drama" Emmy in a row.

　　NHK大河ドラマ第23作。近現代三部作第二部。
　　"近代大河"の第二弾は時代を少しさかのぼり、日本の女優第一号・川上貞奴を中心とする明治から大正にかけての群像劇だ。貞奴に関わる主要人物として登場するは、新演劇の旗手・川上音二郎、実業界に名を馳せた福沢桃介、その妻で福沢諭吉の次女・房子。彼らが織り成すドラマはそれまでの大河が描いてきた英雄伝としての歴史ではなく、文化や世相の面から時代をとらえた意欲作である。ただ、そのためか日清・日露の動乱をはさむ時代を背景にしながらも、視聴者にはいささか地味な作品と映ったようだ。後半には、名取裕子演じる松井須磨子を貞奴のライバル役としてクローズアップし、視聴率回復のてこ入れを図るも効果はなく、一時は視聴率が一ケタ台まで落ち込むという苦い記録を作る。
