Starring: Kiefer Sutherland and Maggie Q
When it starts: Wednesday, Sept. 21, at 10 p.m. on ABC
Come on guys, let's find Kiefer Sutherland a home. The star has been bouncing around since 24 ended (remember Touch?) and he deserves a new series to hang his hat on. Designated Survivor could be it! The drama revolves around Tom Kirkman, a low-ranking politician who finds himself being sworn in after an attack during the State of the Union address. The pilot is full of action, but even if things slow down and the plot points become more subtle, this is still a great premise and Sutherland nails it.
Watch the trailer for Designated Survivor.
