can't figure out where i've seen the actress that played the republican designated survivor
what's the reason kiefer became the president instead of her anyway? other than for plot reasons
Remains a nice show but very little to discuss at the moment. The new guy will probably be higher ranked but he will die soon after.
so who do you think the survivor is? the cutoff didnt show.
That explains why I keep rooting for him.Did you notice that the black secret service agent is also in the Navy on The Last Ship

Congrats on a full season pickup! Thats 22 episodes of #DesignatedSurvivor to look forward to!
HOLY SHIT, Shit, shit...
EDIT: WTF, it got deleted!
The tweet is back up.
My guess is they'll eventually have the focus be a primary mixture of President Kirkman and Agent Wells, since so far they seem to focus on her a lot but not doing much with her.
I am starting to notice this show is a congruent of different kinds of wishful thinking going by the casting.Wow this show is so good perfect casting and nice to see Maggie Q getting a mainstream role. ABC is really stepping up with solid Asian characters.
How did I forget this?Never forget.

The closest thing to getting Jack Bauer and Nikita together, Kal Penn both a versatile actor and having actual experience in the White House. I wonder what other actors that have been become synopsis for something they'll bring.What do you mean?
And yeah, that season... God, fuck Day 6 to hell. Everything about it was beyond stupid.
Good episode, but 22 episodes is stretching the concept just don't do it
I enjoyed the first two episodes, but I really don't think it's 24-episode material. Would have been way better to keep it tight like 13 episodes.
Did they change the 2 kids actors between the pilot and the second episode?
What a sophomore slump. The pilot was trashy but fun. Last night's episode was boring, generic, stupid crap. Very stupid. I can't smoke enough weed to make the stupid go away.
I'm hopeful that they get done with the Leo thing sometime within 1 episode in the original episode runs. Like Jack fucks up a decision and when Leo is off drug dealing he gets kidnapped by pissed people affected by Jack's decision or something obvious like that.

Man, this show is so fucking corny, badly acted, and horribly directed. I can't wait to watch more.
Ted Cruz ran this year.It's kind of funny that it's a Canadian actor who's the President.
Though I think they're filming on the sets made for The West Wing.
I see people posting this, and I'm not sure I'm watching the same show. It's relatively corny, yes, but it's not that bad -just not very subtle, but the acting makes up for some of it- and has not much trouble keeping my attention. Complaining that it's no West Wing is misplaced when it's also not broadcast on HBO.
I really don't want to see quickly written 22 episodes though. I think we're past the point in television were any lead writer can exert enough control on a writer's room that you get 22 relatively good episodes out of it. The West Wing was different in scope and available resources. They had access, and those people wanted the show to succeed. 24-2 here probably doesn't have those resources. Though I think they're filming on the sets made for The West Wing.
Maybe one season spread over two years? For now I'm actually cool with this, because it's not like I'm watching something waaay smarter than this on tv right now.
Everything about Leo annoys the shit out of me.
How would those sets still exist? That show ended a decade ago.
Shit, my friend and I really thought that they were changed.No, but there is often some small time between filming the pilot and starting the rest of the show. So they are 2-3 months older. It will matter less for the son (but even then, just look at his Girl Meets World appearances), but the daughter is still very young, so that will be noticeable.
Reeeeeally liked the 2nd episode.
Any guesses where the plot is headed?
