Okay, I wasn't much of a fan as I should have been. I think it's because dramas on television today have become more actor/actress driven than the writing etc. Anyway, this show should have been an easy slam dunk for the network who was known to making interesting decisions. First, Oscar Winner Geena Davis as a likable Vice President who becomes President was a great casting call. She was believable in the role. Second, the other cast members were equally perfect like Kyle Secor as the First Husband and Donald Sutherland as the President's friend and foe. I don't understand why the West Wing was such a hit but not this show. People were tuning in to see this show regularly. I guess the network didn't want the controversy of a female president. Think Hilary Rodham Clinton! Maybe they felt that women should just be resigned to playing mothers and wives like at Desperate Housewives or lovesick surgeons on Grey's Anatomy. This cancellation is appalling and the network executives should be ashamed of themselves for letting one of the good shows go.
