Synopsis

Mackenzie Allen has a lot on her plate -- she has twin teenagers, a 6-year-old at home and an ambitious husband at the office, and she is about to become the first female president of the United States. Before that happens, however; Mackenzie, who serves as vice president, has to decide whether or not to go against the dying wishes of the current president, who has asked her to step down and let someone "more appropriate" fill his shoes in the Oval Office. Not only does the president want her to resign, so does the entire party that elected her in the first place. But when the moment of truth arrives, Mackenzie isn't willing to be a mere footnote in history. Instead of allowing her detractors to keep her down, she decides to trust her instincts and accept the most powerful job in the world.

Reviews

OllieSuave-007 Commander in Chief is not too bad of a TV political drama, starring Geena Davis as President Mackenzie Allen, the first female to assume America's highest office. Geena played that role with grace and charm as she tackled the country's problems like a dignified statesman.Unlike the U.S. Presidency in reality, President Allen is an Independent and tries to work with both Democrats and Republicans in Congress, but is met with the scorn and resistance of Speaker of the House Nathan Templeton (Donald Sutherland). Not surprisingly, unfortunately, Republicans were portrayed as the villains in the show, while the Democrats were merely sequestered to the sidelines.There is not a whole lot of action or suspense going on in the show - just a lot of political theater and talk. Much of the characters weren't too memorable, but I did like Secret Service Agent Greer, who provided some exciting and hectic scenes in trying to protect the President's typical-teenage daughter, Rebecca. The President's husband Rod Calloway (Kyle Secor) was probably the most annoying character in the show as all he really did was whine endlessly how he doesn't like to assume the role of "First Gentleman" and , as a result, should take on a more important role in the President's Administration (pretty big ego trip).Overall, an average show - Geena Davis was the series' main saving grace.Grade C+

ksawyer1730 I just began watching the show commander in chief for the first time on a paid TV network, I watched all 19 episodes. I was not aware of ,the TV series when it aired in 2005-2006 , so six years later I find that this has to be one of the best shows I have ever watched, I cannot believe it was ever ended . I was online trying to find the 2nd season to my disappointment there was none. with all the garbage that they bring back to TV that the viewing public would rather not watch, why not bring back an updated 2012 version of the show. I thought it was excellent. Please bring this show back, I'm sure the viewing public is sick of all these reality shows. This show has grit, Gena Davis is exceptional. The entire cast is exceptional, what can I say Donald Sutherland is great.

A H After watching only the pilot, I was motivated to purchase the entire first (and only) season. Geena Davis is perfect for the role as President Mackenzie Allen. This series will grab you, make you interested in national affairs, as well as the internal family affairs. It almost makes you wonder why ABC took it off the air.I was also very pleased that the makers of Commander in Chief did not engage in ridiculous yet subtle political attacks. Although I do see them as slightly further left than right, they do present a mostly balanced view of Washington.This is a fantastic series, and everybody, interested in politics or not, should watch this show.(And tell ABC that your still waiting for more episodes)

Critical Eye UK Until catching up with American posters here, I hadn't realised "Commander In Chief" had been axed.Joy, oh joy.We've just cleared our PVR of the unseen episodes that stacked up whilst we were away, having set the unit to make weekly recordings of CiC's first (and now, it would appear, only) UK season during our absence.Tempting, though, to keep the pilot, through which we did manage to suffer, if only as an instance of the gulf that separates great US television (West Wing) from dross US TV (CinC).Most tempting of all was to save the sequence where the President of the USA decides to invade Nigeria, a client state of China, in order to protect the right of women to have sex.Well, there's one heady issue West Wing never managed to touch upon in all its careful, considered explorations of global realpolitik.But it's the scene of the chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff jovially informing the Nigerian Amabassador: "Hey, we're rather good at this!" which will long resonate.As long as TV shows as dumb as this attract the kind of support seen on this board, it's no wonder Mr Bush has such a constituency of belief to draw upon when seeking to demonstrate in reality what Rod Lurie so clumsily sought to demonstrate in fiction -- that be it Nigeria or Iraq, America really is pretty good at this. . .C'mon home, Jeb. America needs you now more than ever.
