Yippeee ,I am not going mad . I must look out for the advert again and confirm times and channel. This, for me, is one of the best programmes on telly -I am so happy .

Really? What a bugger, we don't get Atlantic.

I've been rewarding the last series and still enjoy it 2nd time around.

Cast is good, although story lines are fairly (very) implausible. But a nice way to spend an hour and I like the family interactions too.

Caught the trailer this evening. This season's storyline looks ace, but I won't spoil it for others who haven't seen it yet.

Anyone seen the 1st show? Really enjoyed it! Morgan Freeman directing (and appearing), excellent story to start with & Tea Leoni is as good as ever. I think all the characters have 'bedded in' well now, it felt 'familiar' and the sideline stories from perfect hubby impossibly too perfect children are good too, but still grate a tad. Not sure any of it is that plausible but it's a good yarn, and really well done too.

I liked Beth signing through pardons etc for the brief period she was at the helm.

Also thought Daisy should have led the song skit - she had a much better voice than Bebe Neuwirth (can't remember her MS character's name).

Another fan here! Loved it tonight, great show

I agree about daisy - 'twas a travesty she wasn't centre stage with that voice Grin Bebe's was a bit, erm, warbly. I foresee more tension ahead between potus & Madam Sec. I'd love this show to have enough legs to see Madam Sec become president eventually. Tea Leoni is just too good to wallow in the wings indefinitely...

I want Russell Jackson to get what's coming to him after he didn't consult her about the new security chief guy. Can't she fire him?

Russell Jackson is just the right amount of weasley & officious/jobsworth type who has a 'big ticket' for himself/thinks he's as important as potus when it comes to MS. I love how they 'spar' Grin

I would have fired him while I was acting POTUS in Beth's shoes.

Better episode this week, wasn't too enamoured with last week can't decide if I don't like MS being shafted by new bloke or if it was just a crap episode. I usually don't like the stories with their eldest DD, but felt quite sorry for her. Incidentally, I found out while googling something that Tea Leoni is dating her onscreen husband in real life...

Go Tea! I like his character in MS and he is good looking. Googled a few pictures online and they look good together in RL.

*SPOILER ALERT**Just watched on catch up the most recent episode and I swear the programme just gets better and better. I was completely riveted as the young Russian soldier was sitting on the underground in Moscow being followed by Russian agents whilst back in USA , the President had just sanctioned an attack on the Moscow .Absolutely LOVE this show.

This had gone off Threads I'm On - really annoys me how this happens now!!

Still loving it - enjoyed this weeks & loved how the school made them spend time volunteering!

It dropped off mine too - I'm still enjoying it too. Loved her get tough with the Ukrainian politician to get him to hand over the extremist who killed the Russian president when she was really bluffing. I was sure the sacrifice of the Russian agent would have meant marital trouble but they're just so reasonable & understanding even that doesn't phase them/their marriage. None of its plausible but I still love it Grin I find Keith Carradine's president to be pretty annoying & weak in this. He just sounds a bit whiney & just not presidential. I only recently watched the west wing so I think I'm just hankering after someone a bit more 'presidential' like Martin sheen. And ironically enough I think tea leoni would be the better option for president.
