Designated Survivor (2016–2019)
8/10
Season 3
10 June 2019
Unpopular opinion as it seems from most other reviews but I'm enjoying it so far. I'm not from the USA though so maybe that's why!? My political beliefs do lean more to the left I guess so maybe that's why these shows having a leftist agenda don't bother me. But I do understand people's frustrations as when I watch fictional tv I don't necessarily want to be reminded of real world politics, I'd prefer to just watch a good entertaining storyline regardless of whether it's realistic.

Yes the show has changed from the first two seasons but that is to expected when a new network takes over. I'm not sure why all the swearing is necessary and do agree that they didn't need it but the storyline's have been good so far (I'm up to episode 4).

Some characters are gone and there are some new additions, Anthony Edwards I think was a brilliant choice and I enjoy seeing him in front of the camera again as ER is one of my favourite shows ever.

There is still a story arc as well that involves Hannah Wells although so far it seems to be non related to the first two seasons story arc which I'm more than ok with because it still has me intrigued.

So far I'd still rate it 7/10 as it's still entertaining, not boring and I am liking seeing Tom Kirkman run for president. I'm still glad it got a season 3 and think Netflix has done a solid job so far.
