The new guy is better than I thought he’d be. I enjoyed the premiere a lot more than I have Kiefer’s current show.

Definitely. Kiefer as a mild mannered lib thrust into the White House, loving every Muslim and not suspecting the moles and spies...

And Kal Penn walking through the White House set, thinking “Obama did me there.... he did me over there...”. Just yech.

Ugh, I totally agree. His new character on "Designated Survivor" is light years from Jack Bauer. Really disappointing.

Exactly! I think he even says "That's not who we are" when someone suggest they should kinda sorta keep an eye on muslims, you know, because the whole government has been blown up by muslims (allegedly).

The whole attitude of the show is just ... off. There's a crater where the capitol building used to be and everyone acts like it's just another day at the office.
