Is Elizabeth McCord getting the job done during the fifth season of the Madam Secretary TV show on CBS? As we all know, the Nielsen ratings typically play a big role in determining whether a TV show like Madam Secretary is cancelled or renewed for season six. Unfortunately, most of us do not live in Nielsen households. Because many viewers feel frustration when their viewing habits and opinions aren’t considered, we’d like to offer you the chance to rate all the Madam Secretary season five episodes here. *Status update below.
A CBS political thriller, Madam Secretary stars Téa Leoni, Tim Daly, Sara Ramirez, Željko Ivanek, Keith Carradine, Sebastian Arcelus, Patina Miller, Geoffrey Arend, Erich Bergen, Kathrine Herzer, Wallis Currie-Wood, and Evan Roe. The drama follows the shrewd, determined Elizabeth McCord (Leoni). As U.S. Secretary of State, she battles office politics, while driving diplomacy and negotiating global deals.
Elizabeth was once a CIA analyst, who exited that post for ethical reasons. She later returned to public life, at the request of President Conrad Dalton (Carradine). He values her apolitical leanings, knowledge of the Middle East, flair for languages, and unconventional thinking. Elizabeth is married to Henry (Daly), a former theology professor who is now an intelligence operative. Together, they’re bringing up three children, which can really test her diplomatic skills.
What do you think? Which season five episodes of the Madam Secretary TV series do you rate as wonderful, terrible, or somewhere between? Should CBS cancel or renew Madam Secretary for a sixth season? Don’t forget to vote, and share your thoughts, below.
*5/9/19 update: CBS has renewed Madam Secretary for a sixth season.

I love this show. It deals with current events happening. Please renew it for next season.
I like the show because it is well-acted and realistic. I would really like it to be continued.
Great show. Yes, yes yes Renew!!!!!
Renew!!! Fantastic show. Realistic in both work and home life. Actors are amazing!!
Renew!!! This is a fantastic show. Smart, articulate and realistic for both work and home life and the people who are in the show are amazing.
We quit watching this show after the border crisis episode & will not ever watch it again. We vote to cancel the show but won’t watch it again even if you don’t cancel it.
Totally agree
This is a terrific series. Entertaining and educational. Timely. Ratings are impacted by the fact it is so often cancelled. Please keep it going.
Keep this show on the air. I wait all week to watch it. It certainly should continue through the 2020 election.
Pleasee keep this show going! My whole family loves it. And play it at an earlier time!
My family loves this show. We watch with the CBS app most of the time because you never know when it is going to be on. It seems like the show is canceled for every special awards show or sports event. We have watched every episode and want this renewed. If the ratings are down it is because of constant changes in when show is on. This seasons episodes have been exceptional.
I really like this program. It gives an insight into the knife edge the State Department must walk to negotiate with other countries.
My daughter and I love this show and want it to continue. With the time being inconsistent during football season, we watch it the day after. The time issue could be a factor effecting viewership. With Elizabeth running for President, season 6 is a must!
Definitely renew!
