West Wing Reports (@WestWingReport) January 09, 2013Wow, lunch with Joe Biden and then TV time? It’ll be nice to kick back and relax a bit after that grueling Hawaiian vacation. And Biden did say he’d be meeting with representatives from Hollywood this week to talk gun control.
Pres. Obama will host the cast and crew of the new NBC sitcom 1600 Penn tomorrow for a screening of the show—

So, what’s playing? The White House has invited the cast of “1600 Penn” over for a screening of NBC’s latest mid-season replacement. It’s a comedy set in the Oval Office — the TV show, that is.
From preview clip of "1600 Penn:" PRES: How many times have I told you guys? FAMILY: Reporters are the worst people in the world.—

@markknoller Did that quote make you laugh or cringe?—

@Amanda_L_Smith Nod in agreement.—

Know your place, lapdogs! So what’s so special about this show that warrants a White House invitation? Mid-season replacements are usually the leftovers that didn’t make the cut in the fall.
@markknoller hope you don't have to watch more than that, "1600 Penn" looks awful just from the clips—

cool the fake president on 1600 penn makes a joke in an ad about murdering his daughter's boyfriend with drones—

Wow, #1600penn really is as spectacularly bad as I expected it would be. And for that I have VOD to thank—

“1600 Penn” is a joke, right? It cannot possibly be something that was greenlit by a human being for national broadcast, can it?—
