Another new show

Courtesy of uk.media.tv.west-wing:

ABC’s new TV series Commander in Chief starring Geena Davis as the first female US President, and also featuring Donald Sutherland and Kyle “Homicide / Veronica Mars” Secor. Premiering on 27th Sept.

Potentially interesting, but potentially crap. Interesting that they felt the need to come up with an extraordinary reason why a woman would succeed to the Presidency, and depressing that the First Husband angle sounds so cheesy, but this will all depend on the quality of the writing. It’s hard to gauge the tone of the series at this stage.
