Episode from 3-1-2015

Good news: Madam Secretary fans! The show has been renewed for season 2! Isn’t that nice? Now there are rumors that this show only exists so that Hilary Clinton gets elected president. Are people that dull? I mean, if they were going to do a show with that purpose, then wouldn’t they have done it back in 2007? Plus, this show is more interesting than real life. A new crisis every episode? That’s not going to happen in the real world. This show is different enough that I don’t understand it. At best it’s inspired by Hilary Clinton, but the similarities quickly end to an observant person. I might even do a post as to why I don’t think that this show is actually about Hilary Clinton.

I probably should have chosen a different domain name for this blog of mine. It says my name (Adam Decker) and it also says the name of this show (Madam Secretary). I didn’t realize that my first name was in the word madam. I don’t think that I should have put my name with this blog, in the link for it, at least. But, it doesn’t matter that much. That’s all the randomness that I can mention for now. Well, that, and the fact that I’m not sure that this show will last that long. It could, but we’ll see if it actually does or not. A season 2 renewal is a good sign for the future. But we’ll see if it lasts long or not.

Since the show (Madam Secretary) was gone for so long (strange, isn’t it?), I kept changing the TV show watching that I did. I finished with the fifth season of Charmed and went into the sixth season. I also finished the historical stuff, which was number 4 on the list, moved Moonlight to number 4, and added VeggieTales DVDs as number 5. Then, I finished with the great nature videos, moved Moonlight to number 3, and added the seventh season of NCIS as number 4. Why the seventh season? You see, I have the first eight seasons on DVD and was slowly watching through them all. I didn’t want to watch the seventh season Halloween episode until it was Halloween. I did accomplish that purpose in October and will thus continue watching that season until another holiday conflicts with the list.

Now there’s another update that I need to tell you about. I have probably told you before that I don’t know when I can update this blog. You see, I have a blog about TV and only started this blog because nobody was reading that blog. While I still update my TV blog, I do it less often. But I still have the tie-in of that blog to this blog and I might hold back on posting about episodes in case my TV blog is still unread in the future. Link to that blog: http://adamdeckertv.blogspot.com So for those of you that don’t understand: this blog may be updated less than it should be. But I will update it whenever I can.

The Sunday schedule on CBS is changing. CSI is no longer on it. It looks like it is probably not coming back. At least the ending was pretty good, although they could have done better. Battle Creek is replacing it. I hope that it is good. Typically, good promos for shows mean that the show will be good. They were airing good promos for Battle Creek. I still don’t know when my Good Wife Blog will be started. In both of my affiliates, it has to air at the right time (8 o’clock Central) for me to start it. New blogs are complicated for me. I don’t even know when I’ll post about old episodes on VHS for me to catch up on. I probably will if any of the recent ones can’t be posted yet. I’m not even sure which post this will end up being part of. Hope for no delay or a manageable one or recent episodes won’t be blogged about for a while.

Good news! Today’s episode is brought to you by no delay. In the first segment, Elizabeth is preparing for a congressional hearing. She doesn’t think that she’s as prepared as she needs to be for it. At the hearing, it is revealed that the person she is trying to support possibly used tax payer money to gamble and he also had questionable choices with women.

In the second segment, Elizabeth deals with the fallout of the congressional hearing and considers replacing her whole staff. Now most, if not all, of her staff is members of the cast, so I don’t think that it will happen. But, you never know what could happen. While this is happening, Stevie, due to her knowledge of the French language, gets some sort of job or volunteer work due to sheer dumb luck. Jay, who is the policy adviser for Elizabeth, seems to be in the most trouble, before the commercial break, that is.

In the third segment, they do not address anything regarding Jay. But we do hear Elizabeth asking another man for a job, we just don’t know what job. Stevie gets an internship at the place she went to. Meanwhile, there is some sort of blown operation internationally that few people could have caused. What happened? That’s a mystery for now.

In the fourth segment, it is revealed that Jay was, in fact, fired from his job. The rest of the people that work with him wanted him back. Stevie’s internship can only be done for college credit, bringing yet another reason why she shouldn’t have left college. Will this bring her back to college? We’ll see. It’s hard to tell what to make of the possible mole storyline. It would help if I knew the name of the person accused of being a mole.

In the fifth segment, Stevie decides that she will go to Georgetown (if accepted) and she asks her parents to borrow money to do that. Jay was not actually fired in this confusing plot that keeps twisting at every turn. It was part of some sort of ruse that I don’t fully understand. When they go to the president with a possible security matter, they learn that two agents were assigned the job about it and one of them was the one who died in the first episode. Who was the other one? Well, they go to the person’s house and find a letter in the arm of a teddy bear.

What happens in the next episode? Well, they continue looking into a potential international crisis. I do wonder if three episode event means that somebody will die. That happened in Person of Interest and the Good Wife. We’ll see what ends up happening. For now, this is Adam Decker, signing off.
