Designated Survivor
 
Now that was interesting....did not know there is such a "plan". But, the sad thing is, that situation could be a possibility.....sends chills down my spine......it will be on my watch list...

I did know there was a designated survivor but who would want to survive? When all your friends and family are gone, what's the point?

I just watched this from my DVR list last night. It has a very "24" feel to it, especially with Kiefer Sutherland in the lead role. Personally I will watch it because it has promise. But I did feel a bit squeamish when I saw the capital in ruin. Hits very close to home with the 9/11 anniversary just a week or two ago.

Can't wait for next week :)

I'm with you. all we do is show evil people more ideas on how to hurt the world.

Interesting show--maybe at last we will get some tv shows worth watching.

The gov't runs that way. too anxiety ridden for me. I'd want to go. I couldn't live like that.

Agree! I think of this too often with so much we see on TV and in the movies.

We hear so much about gun control. Why isn't the violence on media being addressed as a factor in what's happening in today's society? Our young generation is watching this as toddlers, growing numb to it all.

I am really tired of so much chaos in shows. There's enough of that in the news on an hourly basis. ANother reason I just don't care if I watch tv or not. I prefer good comedy and there isn't enough of that. I sleep better after watching a good comedy show.

I agree! Give me a good book to hold in my hands and I'm happy.
