There was a lot of confusion last week when The West Wing's John Spencer passed away. Every
single newspaper, magazine, and web site (including this one, but in our defense we missed the opening scene
and were just repeating the news sites) reported that the character of Leo had appeared in a three years later
flash forward in the first scene of the season opener. And that would pose a problem, since Spencer passed away and
couldn't have been in a scene three years in the future.
But NBC is repeating the episode right now and it's official: Leo was not in the scene. So some of the speculation we talked about last week is still valid.
