A drama following the life of a woman who is abruptly thrust into the position of Secretary of State.
Elizabeth McCord is a former top CIA analyst who is suddenly pulled back into politics when The President asks her to be the Secretary of State.
Her new position is steps from the presidency and makes her one the most powerful people in the nation. She is also miles from what everyone expected as she brings her own unique approach to dealing with situations that require her to be tough, focused, and smart.

You have quite an imagination! This is a show which has writers and you switch it to real life and then even tell of a situation of Benghazi which wasn't in the show. Maybe you should quit your job and become a writer for the show.
It is a great show and I do not think President Dalton looks anything like President Obama, that is if we are trying to make a comparison to a real life scenario. I think the way they wear their hair is different or something, just can't put my finger on the difference.

I was expecting this show to be all about Hillary, but its not. What it says to me is that regarding Benghazi Hillary absolutely knew what was going on. Great Show!!!

Get Ready for cancellation. Best new network show this year. There is no room for intelligent well written drama on the major networks. Maybe I'll pitch a reality show "Dancing with the Monkeys" Probably make a small fortune as it will never get cancelled.

I wasn't really wanting to start a politically based show. But I did anyway. I have to say, I am glad I did. I really like the show. There is just the right amount of action, drama, and even comedy to keep it going. Tea Leoni does an amazing job acting My only disappointment is that CBS has gone a new direction regarding releasing shows to Hulu subscribers to catch up later. They don't do it. Streaming of this show and many of their others can only come now via a computer screen. I don't like sitting in front of my computer to watch a TV show. I like to be relaxed in my lounge chair watching from my 55" TV. This has nothing to do with the show. It is great.

This is definitely A show to watch.
Téa is excellent and above all believable.
The sitting senators and congressmen should watch the show. But for their private viewing I would rename the show LOOK THIS IS HOW YOU SHOULD BEHAVE.
They take the salary they should do the work.

I would like to give the show a chance to see where it will go. I don't like Hillary Clinton and I don't think the show is fashioned after her or for her. I really enjoyed the pilot although I had to watch bits and pieces because my DVR recorded ALL of 60 Minutes and PART of Madam Secretary...I say switch time slots with The Good Wife. I believe that show has run it's course...it's old, it's boring and Madam Secretary deserves a good time slot.

Hey David B., misogynist much?
Looks like your mind is made up. All these damn women are good for are cooking and making babies. Oh wait, all the good chefs are men. And men actually make babies, right?
We should brick up those glass ceilings.

Well don't worry. It didn't air here, once again the almighty sports god ran long into it times slot. I get so sick of sports and reality shows.

Gee, do you think this show may have something to do with HILLARY'S Presidential bid? Perish the thought that the media would be involved in pushing feminism down our throats. Eyeing the previews, I have noticed the word "Change" carefully inserted into the dialogue. America's media is so rife with propaganda, they wouldn't know reality if it crept up and gave them a Wedgie.
Now we're seeing this baloney rammed down our throats about women taking charge. Of course every foul up committed by our former Secretary of State (Along with her less-than-congenial nature..) will be artfully attributed to males, employing 'fictitious' plot elements in this series. There are sufficient evidentiary exhibits to demonstrate the inability of these polemic feminists to function in high office. No matter what they screw up, the media or government will 'cover' for them in the name of "Equality". The only way I would watch this tripe is if I somehow had four gallons of estrogen injected into my arm.
