Fantastic!
... View MoreAbsolutely the worst movie.
... View MoreIn truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
... View MoreThe tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
... View MoreGreat show. Can't imagine why this was canceled. The acting was good and the plot interesting. Now I have to search for something good to watch again. Not an easy task. My family liked it as well and we looked forward to it each week. We thought for sure that new episodes would be forthcoming. We don't watch the reality shows and look for something with some substance to it. At least this show gave us food for thought and provoked us to think about the consequences of war. The cast was good as well.Please think about reinstating it. Thanks for listening. Hopefully you do read these and act upon them.We will be watching to see what happens with this show in the future. Bring it back!!
... View MoreBetter than Madam Secretary, and I like Madam Secretary. This just has more action and is sexier. And the twists in the plot don't happen and get resolved in one episode like so many shows that are for those with short attention spans. you have to be patient. If it could be improved at all it should have more testosterone and more action. This show should definitely go forward. In fact if shows like this are just going to be put out and then canceled after a season, they should just make a movie or mini- series pilot first with some resolution and ending to see if people are interested, and quit frustrating people with a canceled season with all kinds of loose ends. Its like publishing books with the last few chapters missing. A waste of your viewers time, and fewer people will even be willing to start watching your new shows when cancellations occur more often than not.
... View MoreReading other reviews, this show has been damned for 1. Heigl is an executive producer therefore has a vested interest in promoting her character 2. She's too young for her high level role 3. She's got a daft name in Charleston 4. Poorly acted and poor plot. Let's look atthese 1. Check out the exec producers for, amongst others, TheBlacklist, CSI (all iterations) and Bones (now there's a show long pastit's best used by date that's now smelling). 2. Heigl is in her mid 30's but I didn't hear any similar criticisms of the character of Jack Ryan in the same role. Also, a bit older but is 44 too young to actually be the President (JFK). 3. And did others say Indiana Jones had a silly name. I've heard a lot of silly names but this is no worse than many 4. Subjective but it's not bad. Not great but not bad.So, to summarise, it hasn't set the TV world alight and I can't see it winning awards but I'm happy enough to while a way an hour watching it as reflected in my score. As an aside, I knew about POTUS and also FLOTUS but as the spouse of the President is a man, what DO you call him? FHOTUS doesn't trip off the tongue so easily.
... View MoreI binge-watched this show today (5/6 episodes) and really enjoyed it. Katherine Heigl is excellent as Charleston Tucker and Alfre Woodard shines as President Payton. I also enjoy seeing Courtney Vance as the President's husband and James Remar (who was fabulous in Dexter and Sex and the City) in the role of Syd. I don't understand all the negative reviews. It's very well done, especially for a network show and the issues it explores are very timely. I think people need to give it a chance. Each episode held my attention and I could not wait to watch the next one. In fact, I'm off to watch Episode 6 right now.
