This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The show was pretty okay. I looked forward to Season 3. However with the very lackluster demise of Hannah it became a slightly boring version of West Wing.It feels kinda like the Muppets without Animal. Or the X-Men without Wolverine. You need some **** kicking violence to keep things from becoming too sedate. No need for a Season 4. Expand

Very liberal, predictable viewpoints throughout. Why can't writers be more original and throw in some surprises and fresh ideas? Same old, kind of a retread of West Wing. Bad guys are shallow Republicans who don't care about children orVery liberal, predictable viewpoints throughout. Why can't writers be more original and throw in some surprises and fresh ideas?

A great show with vibrant characters and a political tone that resonates with anyone that doesn't believe in career politicians and popularity lobbying, which tends to be a lot of people.

The first 2 seasons have enough suspense and immersive feelings to carry the show quite well but it's the 3rd season, where Netflix takes over, where things deviate and the mission becomes rather muddied. I really liked the show but I don't like how it ended, especially because I think a more focused season 3 would have left the door open for another season or 2 before closing the door on the Tom Kirkman character.

Season 1 and 2 were good but I absolutely loved Season 3. Excellent character analysis. I also enjoyed how interviews with non-actors were weaved into the narrative.

This show is the definition of quality writing and acting. The production is, by far, one of the best I have ever seen, or imagined. I only became aware of it very recently, and am more than dismayed to learn that i6 is no longer I'm production.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This show is incredible, lovely to just enjoy in the evening, there is tension and loads of great character connections and dramas. *SPOILER* When Alex dies in series 2, the instant grief shown by Kirkman is just incredible, 100% recommend, season 3 is not as great (other than Seths incredible speech of course) I think Netflix made it very political so it lost its heart warming sense, but all over all, one of the best series’ out there! Solid 9/10 Expand

Designated Survivor is one of the best television series I have ever seen.
I hope to see a reboot in the future with the same cast. Thrilling.
