List of The West Wing episodes

"The Debate" is episode 139 of The West Wing. In an unprecedented move for the show, the episode was broadcast live. Because of this, there are actually two versions of this episode; one performed live for east coast audiences and a second performed a few hours later for west coast broadcast. Only the west coast version appears on the season seven DVD.

The episode featured a debate between Arnold Vinick and Matt Santos, the two presidential candidates, with Forrest Sawyer serving as moderator.
