  1. Wish they would take the show back to its original format. Such a shame, with all the amazing actors that the showrunners  ran this show into the ground. Had so much potential, im still holding on to hope that they will renew it, but its unlikely.

    Intrested to see where hannah's new beginning will take her. Hopefully she will be kicking ass like in the Nikita days.

    Pretty good plot twist with Hannahs firing. I suspected something was weird the way she smiled at kirkman at the end.

    two more episodes till the finale. Maybe they'll save the show  in two weeks?

  2. Well I think this episode undoubtedly confirmed frosty Audrey is evil. Obviously Maggie Q is not getting booted off, and the only way for her to come back is if she was right about frost. So I’m sure it will be revealed Hannah saved the day again. But seriously, Kirkman couldn’t have at least heard her side of the story, after all he’s done for the country??? It did break my heart a little bit when she said everyone I care about is gone, and she didn’t list chuck. People on this form who keep saying chuck is a prime suspect for the hacker are right, he would be in a prime spot for that. But that would be very disappointing to me, so I’m gonna decide to turn a blind eye to that. 

    The emily and Aaron scene was long overdue, obviously there building up to doing stuff in the finale. Nice to see any resemblance of season 1 again. 

    I may have the unpopular opinion, but I really wish this show would continue for a 3rd season and it would get a better show runner. So sad how they took it in such a different direction from what it was meant to be.

    A bulletproof vest stops the bullet but not the kinetic energy. So Damian got hit in the chest right near his lungs by an object going about 900 miles an hour and it hit him hard enough to spin him around and off the bridge (which is funny because I didn't think Hannah was rocking a Desert Eagle, it looked like a 9mm or a .45 to me but I'm no gun expert). Hitting the water from that high up would also be the shits. And any river anywhere near DC in mid-December is going to be insanely cold. Wet leather is heavy and I am sure that even people with a fetish for it still don't enjoy swimming in it. And of course, in true 24-style this confrontation of the jilted lover takes place where there is no backup within easy reach. After Hannah shoots her prime suspect off a bridge she goes out drinking rather than filling out the infinite paperwork that would accompany such a profound screwup.

    Look Designated Survivor, I know having Keifer Sutherland around makes cribbing from 24 irresistable. But steal the good stuff, not the bullshit!

    I can see it being a hygiene rule before the concept of hygiene really existed. Non-refrigerated blood would spoil quickly and wouldn't be good for much except getting other people sick. So at some point some priest/doctor said "God says this stuff is bad, don't mess with it." But I don't recall any particular prohibition in scripture that specifies exactly what God will do to someone who disobeys this. That was what I would have asked the lady in the first place. Okay, you're going to defy God's will to save your daughter. First and foremost, if God is indeed all powerful, can you defy Him? And second, supposing you do and you have now offended God with your blasphemy (neverminding the fact that one having the ability to offend God means that one has power over God), what exactly is the Almighty going to do to settle the score with you that would be worse than killing your baby?!

    The point of the episode  is, they don’t think that far into it, the Mother was taking his word at face value and Emily was trying to convince her to look deeper into it

  4. Brit was guilty, got caught, and wanted to die. He commuted suicide on that bridge. He’s not stupid, he knew the second he reached his hand into his pocket she had no choice but to kill him. He could have easily went to jail by putting his hands behind his head. I hope chuck gets a chance now, but every time chuck tries to have a moment Hannah friendzones him.

    why does everybody hate the children so much? Yea there not great to be main characters or anything but that preview of penny broke my heart 

    Killing and replacing Alex will either be the demise of or the saving grace of this show.

  5. Welcome back, Designated Survivor. 

    I’ll admit, I couldn’t stand the First Lady as much as anyone else. But seeing Keifers reaction after their victory? My heart absolutely broke. I’m glad she left by her own choice to work on another show. 

    As always, Maggie Q is a beyond phenomal actor no matter what she is doing. The scene between her and chuck was so heartwarming, I really hope they become a thing eventually, they have been setting the stage for it since season one. 

    Yes the whole thing with Damian was predictable but then he’s,,, ALIVE? How did he survive that fall?? What is he gonna do now?? 

    I guess all these questions will have to be answered after the break. Hurry up February 28th. 

    One criticism is: I don’t like how they tend to portray liberals as the livesaving heros and people who are religious as bad. I have never heard of a religion that would not do that.

  6. All  I can say is: I hope next episode Is as good as it looks in the preview. Damn. The letters were kinda interesting-except the bees one. But the same issue we have had all season- so much sh!t for a single hour.  Cant wait to see how they knock Alex off next episode. Loved that kirkman finally laid down the law with his pain in the ass wife.

    I though they were laying the groundwork for the ending of Seth and Emily's thing and the rekindling of her an Aarons, but like always, nothing on DS is as it seems. For the love of god, stop kissing Seth, Emily. Its like watching brother and sister kiss. It was bad enough the first time, but twice? Really? I'm convinced these writers are not right in the head. Stop whining like a little girl and man up Seth.

    Hands down the best part of this episode was the last two minutes when Hannah found out who was truly by her side. She owes Chuck big time. You could see the anger on her face after that call, Damian better watch his back.

    Cannot wait for next week. I hope they don't make us wait 3 months again for it to come back-that was torturous.

  7. Im glad other people saw my concern too: Could that of possibly have been Aaron with Hannah? Damn, this should be interesting. Although it would make sense for it to be Damian, (came back from overseas, happy to see eachother, etc:) it did look eerily like Aaron, or maybe even Chuck?

    Mike was being such an ass to Hannah. Not cool. Don't mess with Hannah. Glad they worked it out in the end though.

    THIS was the designated survivor I missed this whole season. Intense, action packed, awesome. Jack is BACK baby. Slightly rolled my eyes at the drama at the white house though, especially with Seth. Bring back the old Seth, not this whiney drama causing a-hole that thinks he should be with Emily. "Your dating your boss," What the hell was that all about?? Also why were Kendra and Em dressed exactly the same with the same hair? They need a blonde on this show. Everyone looks the same

    Really liked this episode. Hope the next two are even better

  8. I actually liked seeing Leo again, Tanner was the best he’s been all season imo (and the thing with his girlfriend was interesting (not saying he should be a main cast member or anything, just thought he was good last night) 

    glad president moss wasn’t actually involved. I wasn’t expecting that ending. Again just too many storylines moving too fast, wish they would stop that

    The most interesting thing is seeing the First Lady dig herself deeper and deeper into a hole. Feeling like she’s somehow been connected to this all along and just playing dumb. Would make for a good plot twist if she did

     Like other people have pointed out Im waiting for Chuck to loose it on Damian

    The Hannah and Damian scene..? That came out of nowhere; I don’t know if there’s real chemistry between them. Give chuck a shot and send Damian back where he came from

    cant wait for next weeks episode

    It took Leo this long to get his face out of his phone?

    Who are Chuck and Damian? If you refer to characters by the actors' previous roles, please provide some context for viewers who did not see the previous shows.

    I said, "Here's your hacksaw, Jack."

    Chuck and Damian are the two helping Hannah on this show-Those are  the current names of their characters

    I don't mind the lawyer but she and the Chief of Staff look like identical twins.

    One of the advantages of diversity in casting is that it makes it easier to tell the characters apart.

     

    Agree 100%. I actually don't mind Kendra because unlike Lyor she hasen't invaded on the original cast, but I wonder why they didn't get someone who looked a little different from Emily

    Okay somebody help me, was that a "good" kiss at the end or just a friendship kiss? Ahhhhhhhhhhh. I love Kal Penn. 

    It was more of a friends kiss. Not like the Emily Aaron kiss or the Hannah and Damian kiss made up of pure sexual tension. This was more just like Emily needed a man who cared about her in that moment and Seth was it. Hopefully she was just at a low point and now the writers can stop making her like Seth and put her back with who we all know she truly belongs with. I have a feeling it’s all just a distraction and Aaron will come back into her life hopefully by the end of the season

  12. I actually really enjoyed this episode. It really does suck seeing Emily and Aaron with virtually no connection anymore. It dosen't seem right. Everyone was flipping out over Em and Seth's kiss, and it was weird but I think it was definitely more of a friend kiss, completely different than per say her and Aaron or Hannah and Damian. Still weird though. Bring back Aaron. Also I agree the scene with her dad had horrendous writing.

    The whole thing with the MOTFL is interesting. cant wait to see if she's involved with the conspirators.

    I cant tell if I like Hannah working on her own or with a partner. I don't dislike Damian, I just don't know if she needs a partner.

    Don't make us wait  2 weeks ABC

  13. I thought this was the best episode of the season to date 

    suckergate did seem like something that could have been handled with a quick apalogy, not sure it was really the big deal they made it out to be but oh well 

    Hannahs scenes were excellent as always. Props to you Maggie Q for being a fantastic actor no matter what your doing 

     can alex go away already? Glad someone put Forstyl in his place 

    liked it overal and already can’t wait for next weeks episode

    At the end, the FBI director told Hannah something about FLOTUS's mother and said "I don't have to tell you what that means." It was 10:58 PM, so you have to tell me what that means.

    I think he was basically saying every time Hannah goes on missions, she gets someone hurt, blows something up or finds someone dead and never has any real explanation so everyone is getting suspicious and he'll be watching her to make sure she's not up to anything weird.

    Totally agree with you.  Abby sometimes crossed the line with insults but she was spot on in her assessments of them and what they needed to improve on and what they were good at.  If anything, Abby gave them more credit than they deserved. 

    If Chloe was so traumatized by the show there is no way she could come back to it.  As for Maddie, she was every teacher's dream.  Of course Abby put her front and center, that's what you do with your strongest talent.  Of course she would give Maddie all the solos, she was the hardest working dancer they had.  Maddie has a talent you can't teach,  you either have it or you don't.  Maddie has the work ethic needed to continue to grow.  Nia doesn't have it.  Kendall doesn't have it.  Chloe doesn't have it. 

    I'm interested in seeing how it ends.  I assume this is the last season.

    Glad to see someone agrees. I've grown up with these girls and have enjoyed the show but Too many people hype them up and it's all went way to their egos.

  16. Loved this episode. I got irritated when Alex was reprimanding Hannah. Served her right. And I'll admit I was laughing my ass off at the whole vase thing, even tho it was cheesy. 

    I feel like overall this show is flying through issues just a little too fast, they need to spend more time on each crisis. 

    Also whatever they are making (forcing) happen between Seth and Emily is weird. I get they probably wanted a break so everyone didn't get sick of it but putting her with Seth is just so weird. Aaron and her had an undeniable chemistry I'm sure they'll come back to it. 

    Lastly, I understand penny cant contribute much to the show but where did Leo go?? The show does have some younger fans who would love to see a younger cast member occasionally helping his dad out, he's 18 now so why not? Not to mention he's pretty attractive (to the younger crowd at least)

  17. I liked this episode much more, had me on the edge of my seat like all season one did. They contained the outbreak too fast tho, shoulda dragged it out more. And what was toms weird relationship with Tammy or whatever her name is!? That seemed strangely flirtatious. Love seeing Keifer put people in their place like the medicine guy. Lyor is really growing on me as well, he brings a much more comedic sense to the show which it needed 

    The relationship between Hannah chuck and Damian is hilarious. I hope they keep that going. Damian needs to  toughen up a little bit though, if he's gonna be her badass sidekick her better live up to her past tv co stars or he won't last long. 

  18. I am completely hooked on this show, have been since last year and couldn't wait for it to come back. But after the long wait  I'll admit I was slightly disappointed in this episode. Not as spectacular as I thought but still good. I don't know how I feel about the new agent, but Lyor is definitely taking a lot of hate but I actually sort of like the dynamic he's bringing. It's funny. Not a huge fan of the Kendra girl, nothing really wrong but imo she's just too simmilar to Emily. 

    They escelated the conspiracy too fast, which is disappointing because it's my favorite part of the show. Hannah is effing awesome, if they ever kick her I'll stop watching. Good to see chuck back also. Also  just to clarify, she was only dressed so scandalous because she was undercover trying to lure in the British guy. She rarely wears stuff like that otherwise. 

    Overall still a good start and I still reccomend to my friends. Look forward to weds days greatly. Yea some of it isn't realistic but it's tv guys sit back and just watch the show

  19. As someone who has watched this show weekly since it first aired in 2011, This show needs to end. It's getting unbearable. The only good things are the dances and those even kinda suck now. 

    The scores are fake. Group costumes were horrendous. Brynn and Ashlee are annoying playing the victim card. And Cheryl was completely wrong, insecurity is none of those girls issues. Have you seen their social medias and youtube videos?? They sure do seem to love themselves on their. There problem is they have had people telling them for so long that Abby lee was a monster and they are perfect. Truth is Abby was right all along, they needed to work much harder if they wanted to make it in the business. they would be nothing without her like she wouldn't be anything without them. Sorry but other than Maddie NONE of these girls have real potential for a career, it's a fact. And I'm sorry but if Chloe was seriously THAT damaged by Abby that is christis fault for living through her child and keeping her in that environment. Maybe if Christi would have stopped relentlessly made excuses for her child and listened to Abby it would have never gotten to that point. What was Chloe's excuse for leaving the ALDC and regressing?? No Abby to blame for the last 3 years and she's worse than she was when she was 13. I've watched for this long I'll keep going to the end but it's getting painful.
