I was really excited to see this show because it was
from the same people that produce "The Blacklist," one
of my favorite shows, and this show did not disappoint
me. I have to admit it didn't hook me from the first
episode like "The Blacklist" did, but I still like it
very much because of the premise of the show. Katherine
Heigl plays Charleston Tucker, "Charlie," a top CIA
analyst who's responsible for preparing the
presidential daily briefing, which is a list of the most
important security crises that face the United States.
The most interesting part of the show for me is the
relationship between Charlie and the president,
Constance Peyton (Alfrie Woodard) Charlie was engaged
to the president's son, who was killed in a terrorist
attack. Charie survived the attack but can't remember
many details about what happened. Charlie and the
president are determined to find those responsible for
his death and bring them to justice.
It took me at least two shows to get into because it
goes a tiny bit slower then "The Blacklist". It still
has plenty of action and secrets and gives you a glimpse
of the wonderful men and women who work to keep our
country safe. It is kind of a mix of Scandal and the
Blacklist, so if you like those shows, you will enjoy
this one. You can watch any episodes that you missed
online or watch the show on NBC on Mondays 10 PM Eastern
9 PM Central time. I give this show 4 out of 5 stars
because it takes a little bit longer to get into, and
the action is a bit slower, but it is still worth
watching.
