What do you think? Are you a fan of the Madam Secretary TV series? Do you plan to watch the fourth season on CBS?
Always look forward to this show each week! So glad it’s renewed – yeah! Everything about it is great – cast, plod, interactions, etc., etc.
What I mean to say is thank you for renewing Madam Secretary! I will definitely continue to watch. I am in the 65-75 WF category
Madam Secretary is a tv show with a strong, moral, smart female character, on equal footing with her male counterparts, in an important Federal government position involving National Security. As if that wasn’t all, she is in a balanced family relationship at home with husband and children. Too good to be true. Probably, but heck, why not?! Why shouldn’t one fantasy show be a non-violent one?
Another show just shot itself in the foot. Their fault, couldn’t leVe a good show alone. Won’t bother taping this one again!
Thank the maker Madam Secretary renewed!!!!!! The dynamic of the characters is wishful thinking for our current real situation
Love Madame Secretary and will definitely continue to watch!
Yes to Madame Secretary, Blue Bloods, and Bull!
Yes YES YES PLEASE continue with Madame Secretary. Also I am very happy that Blue Bloods will continue.
Yes,yes,yes! I love Madame Secretary! Keep it on.
Love this show! Keep it going. The family, the politics, the real life emotions. Also good!
This is an absolutely OUTSTANDING show! My husband and I are in our 40’s. We are totally addicted to it. Please keep renewing it! Thanks.
Madame Secretary is my MUST show of the week. I have become a political junkie due to all of what’s going on in this crazy American political world and Tea Leoni and co. provide a sane view of things. Their themes do jive, the family stuff is realistic and provides a nice healthy picture of what a family can look like . There is so much ridiculous TV these days; this is a gem. Thanks for keeping it going.
Love the Madam Secretary show and the characters. It’s a warm/cozy showcas bestcI can explainvit Outstanding!!
Super great show more for adults than ‘kids’. Sometimes I wonder who leads and follows in our real world-Madam Secretary or President Trump! Just an aside, I noted someone commented about wanting subtitles. I leave ‘closed captioning’ on all the time.
My husband and I are huge fans of Madam Secretary! We don’t often have the opportunity to watch it during it’s air time, but we DVR the show religiously! Tea Leoni is outstanding in this show and the dynamic amongst her team is awesome, they highly respect one another’s expertises. Keep this show going!!!
