    All told, the “new-ish” Designated Survivor seems serviceable, if not (though understandably) in the same league as the venerable White House drama it aims to emulate.

This 2nd half of season 2 is garbage! Cheesy, poor scripts, bad acting, stupid story-lines and absolutely dreadful acting by Maggie Q who plays FBI agent Hannah Wells. The first Season was pretty good, but this is a joke folks! I can't watch it any more after episode 12. An insult to the intelligence!… Full Review »
