I went into this with low expectations, especially after watching it at the tail end of a viewing session that included HIMYM and the mostly disappointing Blacklist and was pleasantly surprised, it wasn't bad!
Toni Collete plus a mostly recognisable from other shows background crew give it a decent cast and the only thing I'd really quibble about is wondering if a surgeon who will be operating on the President would be allowed home on her own the night before? I know they are portraying the big fella as doing it as some kind of man-of-the-people act though so perhaps that handwaves it all away.
There appears to be no early smoke and mirrors as such, right from the off we know who is behind it which is a nice change of pace.
I'm genuinely interested in watching next week to see how everyone reacts around what happened at the end.
p.s. Apologies if there was a thread, I didn't see one going back 3-4 pages so hopefully I'm not a crazy old blind person.
