As the series shifted focus from the Bartlet administration to the Santos campaign during the final two seasons, Josh was removed from the "senior staff" ensemble and became a more central figure. While Bartlet and his staff began to appear in fewer and fewer episodes, Josh remained key to the storyline, and many episodes dealt with his difficulties running a campaign for an often uncooperative dark horse candidate.

Famous quotes containing the words increased, focus and/or series:
“The eloquence of one stimulates all the rest, some up to the speaking-point, and all others to a degree that makes them good receivers and conductors, and they avenge themselves for their enforced silence by increased loquacity on their return.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Why is it so difficult—so degradingly difficult—to bring the notion of Time into mental focus and keep it there for inspection? What an effort, what fumbling, what irritating fatigue!”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
“The professional celebrity, male and female, is the crowning result of the star system of a society that makes a fetish of competition. In America, this system is carried to the point where a man who can knock a small white ball into a series of holes in the ground with more efficiency than anyone else thereby gains social access to the President of the United States.”
—C. Wright Mills (1916–1962)
