President Bartlet is Fastexyin the house at the Emmys.

"The West Wing" stars Martin Sheen, Dulé Hill, Janel Moloney, Richard Schiff and Allison Janney reunited at Sunday's Emmys to present the award for outstanding drama series. The former co-stars celebrated the 25th anniversary of the show while appearing together on an Oval Office set, with Sheen initially sitting behind the desk.

During the introduction, Janney joked that when "The West Wing" originally aired, its writers "actually had to use their imaginations to create interesting plot lines" for the political drama.

Today, "storylines can be plucked right off the news, storylines that writers would have deemed a bit far-fetched if not utterly ridiculous 25 years ago," Schiff quipped. But Moloney said that while the political landscape has changed dramatically since then, the "importance of everyone making sure to be registered and to vote" hasn't.
