A political drama following a Cabinet member who is appointed President after a deadly attack on the Capitol.
After a deadly explosion kills the President and members of the Cabinet on the night of the State of the Union address, the nation is suddenly left without a Commander in Chief.
Tom Kirkman, the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, had been named the designated survivor and is therefore the next in the chain of command. He is promptly sworn in as President, though he has no way of knowing that the catastrophic attack was only the beginning of a much larger plan.

Maybe ABC will bring the show back but they'll replace President Tom Kirkman with a president who is trans-gendered and they'll have a White House staff full of Muslim refugees, illegal aliens, and an assortment of LGBTQ freaks in order to satisfy the PC/diversity fascists.

Great show can't believe it was cancelled -- how do you leave your viewers in such suspense. The best show on ABC that my husband I looked forward to watching. We also started watching The Crossing and that show was cancelled. I don't get it why is your network cancelling such great shows. I hope Designated Survivor returns we are willing to watch it on any network as long as it is brought back

I can’t believe you are canceling one of the best shows on television. It’s a shame there is finally an engaging show that gives you something to look forward to and watch instead of so much junk and trash on tv. Horrible decision, I hope someone else picks this show up!

Another genious move by ABC. Cancelled the only good show on your network. No wonder CBS is kicking your butt in ratings.

Another good show bites the dust. Everyone I speak with in my workplace and even when traveling loves this show and the actors. You’re management team is doing you a disservice by choosing more crappy reality shows. Anything but class sounds about right to me.
