So any low-level cabinet minister can become president, weird, what about the veep?
It'll be nice to see Natascha McElhone back on our screens though.

Merlin:

"So the victim was found with a sword shaped stab wound in the face and the begger kids say they saw a knight running from the scene."

Lancelot:

"Witches, must be witches."

King Arthur

"You've done it again Lancey boy, case closed".

Merlin:

"I don't know about you guys but I could do with a drink!"

Lancelot:

"Yeah, but Arthur's buying. Last time I told him to get a round in he came back with a table!"

Merlin and Arthur together:

"TRUST LANCEY!"

Sadly it will likely end up with it being him reincaranted as Arthur King, new York PD cop, who has flashbacks to this fire breathing dragon that the force shrink tells him is his dream life dealing with that fraught relationship he had with his boss on the murder squad latino hearthrob Gwen Iveere.

I'd adjust this slightly ..

Merlin: "So the victim was found with a sword shaped stab wound in the face and the begger kids say they saw a knight running from the scene."

Lancelot: "Merlin, Witches " <places helmet slowly on head and lowers the visor..> "..must be witches."

<Walks off screen>

YEEEEEEAAAAAHHHHHHH <The Who kicks in for the opening theme>

I love Killjoys as well. I am saving season 2 for a good binge when it has aired all the episodes.

Nothing weird about it at all - it's all very possible in theory. At the annual State of the Union address the entire Cabinet and Congress are in one place so the convention is that a "designated survivor" is kept at a secure location: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Designated_survivor

I am officially gutted about Devious Maids. Apparently season 4 ended on a massive cliffhanger. And out of most of the primetime soaps, it's my favourite. It's ratings may of declined with each season but it was still their highest rated scripted show

Fuming

Now i know how fans of Army Wives felt. And that was on for seven years and was still managing nearly 3 million an episode.

Battlestar Galactica used that concept to have Laura Roslin become President .The character was supposed to be 43rd in line of succession .

Not surprised at all about Devious Maids. This season has just been terrible. It's just run out of steam imo. It's had a great run for lifetime and it's lasted longer than I think anyone anticipated. But definitely the right time to get rid of it. Doesn't bother me if it ends on a cliffhanger, the show needs some excitement after this boring season.
