What do you think? Are you a fan of the Madam Secretary TV series? Do you plan to watch the fourth season on CBS?
I’m 83, and I would lie about my age to get within your 18-49 demographic, if I thought it would support further seasons of Madam Secretary. The writing and the performances by the cast are absolutely outstanding. My wife and I look forward to each episode, and are bitterly disappointed whenever one is cancelled
Die hard fan. Please don’t kill one the best shows on TV !! In today’s world of politics, this show is so close to spot on issues. Madam Secretary is the next best thing to House of Cards. Keep the good ones, cut loose the bad. (Bull)
We watch Madame secretary faithfully!!! I can’t tell you how much we enjoy this program– it is so well done and well written . So very glad that it was renewed–with the way things are lately in this world , we really need this on!!!
Love Madam Secretary. Please another season!!!!!
Absolutely.
We watch Blue Bloods and Madam Secratary faithfully. We hate it when CBS broadcasts all of the self serving star studded shows that causes either of those shows to be cancelled. We watch something else on another network. There were at least a half dozen or more times that our favorites were cancelled because of this during 2017. And always on CBS!
We really like the madame secretary series
No gratuitous violence or sx
Touches on issues that are discussed in real world
Shows issues within family and office that create friction and so on
It is a good show and we all enjoy watching
Love madam secretary and blue blood they are the only reason I stay with CBS I don’t miss a show
Best show on tv. The only one I watch religiously.
It’s one of my Favorites. It’s so upsetting when you get into a show,really like it and it gets cancelled
There are few TV Shows that I watch and they are all on CBS, with Madam Secretary and 60 Minutes at the top of the list. Should you ever cancel these shows I will not tune in to CBS anytime soon.
Love this show! She is a strong female characters who also has compassion and a great sense of humor. Hope the ratings go up this year. I just found this show after 2 1/2 seasons were already over, so there is hope!
Its a great show and one of the few that we watch every sunday. Can’t wait for fall and season 4.
I love this show! It’s the only network series I watch. Thank you for giving us a story that speaks to our hearts and our minds. Can’t wait for Season 4!
Madam Secretary is the only one I watch. The politics, the dynamic between husband and wife, family life and current issues were well written in this series. I hope the next Season would focus on Global economy and how countries trying to influence their dominance in world power.
As for Madam Secretary’s hair, I think they want her to be less rigid and more carefree, more relax and a person.
