Designated Survivor - Page 5 - OOTV -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

agreed,

The part I almost turned it off was when the FBI guy came to talk to the president about that other guy (****ING FINALLY) but.... BUM BUM BUUUUUUUM, he is there in the room too.
So the FBI guy just goes back to his office and sits there. He doesnt try to call the president and say "hey I needed to talk to you about the VP elect, he is shady". NOPE, he sits there and sulks....... ****ING BULL**** scene. I liked the cheese of this show, but that made no ****ing sense whatsoever. **** YOU FBI, and **** YOU DESIGNATED SURVIVOR. ****ING gimmicky cliff hanging non-believable scenes.

It's incredible how much it has become a blatant Homeland ripoff

i still enjoy it, it's like some pot head's wet dream. "We'll do Homeland meets 24....with JACK BAUER as the president"

was this week's episode a little better, or am i crazy?

it's still ridiculously silly and terrible, but a little better than the other recent episodes, no?

i was disappointed though that there was no "damn it!" or "sonofabitch"

and the press secretary slap down on the ahole reporter should have been a lot harder

Argh

This show is so awful

I keep waiting for ****ing Jack ****ing Bauer and all i get is this pussy ass potus. How did this guy snag Hank's girl?

Since when does the House have hearings/ a say in confirmations. Guess they missed that Schoolhouse Rock episode

Needed a 24-style beeping countdown clock right at the end of this episode.

And yes, need both Jack Bauer and Nikita to flip and take the law in to their own hands as we know they want to! Basically an anti-terrorist / mole dream team!

Plus the leaker getting his 5 minutes but not shouting out the 10 second synopsis of the evidence.
"Hey dude, the cia actually designed how the capitol was destroyed. It might be an inside job."
He's just fine with unknown people handling a disk He gave up his life to get to the President, and let them figure out what's on it.

This show is doing the opposite of Homeland, which burned through story line before you could figure out if it made sense.
