Designated Survivor

I just binge watched this series. It's right up ATS's ally. A political drama without the emphasis on politics, and more conspiracy. I would say more, but I don't want to ruin it for those that haven't watched it..

If you get bored, and want something to watch. Here you go.

A low-level Cabinet member becomes President of the United States after a catastrophic attack kills everyone above him in the Presidential line of succession.

Where'd you watch it? I thought it was still mid-season so I've put off starting it.

Alternative means.

Up to episode 14.

Haha okay. I'll have to wait then I suppose. Thought maybe it was further into the season than I realized.

Marvels Iron Fist on Netflix is watchable.

Sounds a lot like one of the Tom Clancy books where Jack Ryan becomes president. If I remember was a pretty good book ending with a nice EO .

It's been a good show.

And the Holy WTF Just Happned twist in the story was really awesome.

My wife and I dig it very much.

because of this thread i am going to give it another go.
i watched 2 episodes and wasnt really feeling it.

gonna run through a few episodes tonight

thanks

I'm enjoying it with the conspiracy angle and all but Keifer Sutherland is a bit too wooden for me.

This is my 2nd favorite series I'm watching right now. Other than the fact its hard for me to see Keifer as anything other than Jack Bauer (24 series), I love this show. We are watching it on Hulu.

I agree, and that low, half whispering, "presidential sounding" voice he does gets on my nerves after a while. But all in all, I like the show and my wife and I keep up.

Im loving it. Just started it thx to op. Something about kiefer bothers me too, I wouldve put Seth Rogen in an even nerdier role prior to the capitol attack. Dont know why I just imagine Seth Rogen doing it better.

a reply to: Golantrevize

Hmm, I don't know, I can't imagine Seth Rogan doing it but I'd like to see it... At any rate, I am enjoying it too, Keifer or not.

Well that was the premise of the show people.

The last person anyone wanted to be potus is Kirkland.

He's a work in progress with traitor(s) all around him who don't care who they kill.

Well screw this show.

The last two episode have been nothing but political hackery.

'Gun violence'

Made up statistics.

Even after Kirkman was shot by the 'deep state'.

I had such high hopes for this show.

Blah
