Sorkin and Lowe to reunite

St. Elmo's rules, West Wing does not. He's better off.

Lowe went on record shortly after his departure, complaining not just about the lack of inclusion of his character in the "ensemble', but also of the weak writing of his exit story. To say there was no animosity there would be to gloss over the facts. In fact, Sorkin got is own shots in fairly early, when he claimed in Newsweek: Sorkin: ... Look, any writer writing for Rob has big shoes to fill. Youre looking at the specter of Atomic Train and Oxford Blues and St. Elmos Fire, and you try to live up to those standards, and sometimes you cant. Time Magazine: Im not sure if the record should reflect that youre being ironic. Sorkin: (Laughs) Whatever you like. Lowe's own revisionist history notwithstanding, it was never as simple or impersonal as stated here.
