Designated Survivor: Commander-in-Chief (2017)
Adan canto.
Seeing this episode for the nteenth time it makes me so sad that he's no longer with us. Designated survivor would not have been the same without him. He was part of the glue that kept things together, along with italia Ricci and kal. Watching him again in this episode is both sad and a legacy to his contribution to this series. A standup guy even when losing his post as chief of staff. I love this episode and will forever remember his contribution to this series. Especially the first season which is such a winner in my book.
This episode continues the suspense and really makes you look forward to the next episode which is a killer.
Designated Survivor: Backfire (2017)
Slightly back to normal.
Rob morrow everyone. This episode is quite the letdown from the previous one. The kirkmans don't convince anyone, especially the wife. And the drama seems to be neglected. I sure feel sorry for the loss of Luke but it's not being played convincingly. Rob morrow from numbers is a new player here and he's doing well. As opposed to the former journalist trying to push kal to his limits. Kal by the way is as always performing well and his character is one you can trust. A bit distracted but surely to the point.
I know this show isn't west wing or homeland or Nikita or house of cards. But why the differing suspense levels between episodes. Considering what's happening in episode 15 this is a letdown or walkover or whatever.
