Cast of "Madam Secretary" reflect on show's six seasons

The Trump impeachment inquiry isn't the only impeachment we've seen on TV this fall. It was also part of the final season of the CBS drama "Madam Secretary." Jamie Wax was on set for the filming of the series finale where he spoke with some of the show's biggest stars about their six season journey.

    I got into this show this year because of my good friend and let me say I fell in love with every character in the office with the Secretary/President. I agree with you that the best part of the show was that there was no partisan in either direction, because of this I would have loved to have witnessed in real life a President like Elisabeth McCord for the World. I am not an American citizen but honestly, one can agree that we need an individual like her now to run this world. It was so refreshing to enjoy and learn so much about what goes on behind the scenes politically. I most certainly am missing the show already.

    I love this show. My only problem is the way CBS treated Madame Secretary over the years. Any time there was a special or time and day change to other shows, the first show to get axed for the week was Madame Secretary. It was not fair that something that was normally seen at 8pm on a Sunday gets bumped to 9 pm, then CBS decides not to show MS at all. CBS should get fired, not MS. Also, I was thinking that maybe this would pave a way to change the title to Madame President. CBS has no love for the series, but I do.

    I'm a fan of both shows, but I have to say that I did not enjoy the Santos/Vinick season. The show is called The West Wing... not Who Will be the Next President? I enjoyed the monologues and several epiphanies by Ron Silver, Alan Alda, and Martin Sheen during that time, but the seventh season is just a headache. Spoiler: Madam Secretary, on the other hand, handled the transfer of power without all the politics that viewers try to get away from: by ending season five with her campaign announcement to beginning season six with her first month as President.

    I am so tired of network pinheads canceling great shows. This show became a Sunday night staple for me and a whole lot of other people. This is the best politically driven show since The West Wing. Not only did they axe this phenomenal show way too soon, but they couldn’t even give us a full season, we only got a 10 episode final season. CBS is usually more flexible with canceling shows, giving new shows the time they need to mature or established shows like Madam Secretary that might dip a little in the ratings. I’m getting fed up with this.

    I didn't even watch this until Dec 2023, I was expecting it to just be another political drama with backstabbing and just a lot of bad people, like a few others that were around at the time and since it, but instead it was a great show, with good characters and great stories. I have been a fan of Tea Leoni since The Naked Truth, even though it was nothing like Madam Secretary of course, I just recently got to see it again, right here on KZread, because one channel has all 3 seasons, and though you could tell Tea was very talented as an actress, even with all the silliness of that show, it was so weird compared to this show, but I still enjoyed it. And after finding out even before I finished it, where it's on Netflix, that Tea and Tim were actually dating, like right from the start of the show, it made so much sense to me, because they're chemistry was through the roof, and they really seemed to be really kissing the whole time, lol! Not that fake type where they barely kiss their lips together, lol! I really love that the two of them are still together now after all these years. I am glad Tea found a good guy to spend the rest of her life with, after David Duchovny. Oh speaking of David and The Naked Truth, there is an episode in that show, after the two of them were dating and before they were married, where as a tabloid magazine reporter, Tea's character is set to find proof David is cheating on his blonde sitcom girlfriend, and I just wondered while watching it if Tea later thought of that episode after finding out years later that David was cheating on her. That must have made it even worse somehow, she probably thought that it was like the universe was trying to tell her something, but she didn't get it!

    It was more they were cancelling madam Secretary and chose to use a half season fast forwarded as to presidency. I personally think the current political climate was the biggest reason this show declined. Last thing we want is more sensational politics right now. Had this been a more "typical" real world presidency this show would likely have continued for another few seasons.

What bothered me most was the fact that they ‘played down’ the first female President by dressing her in endless pant suits, ties and pinned back hair. Then engulfed her with controversy for half the season. It was just so dull & uninteresting. The actors, the show, the fans deserved better.
