"There’s not enough family tension for it to be a domestic drama, not enough government intrigue to make it a political show, and not enough investigation to make it a procedural."

"As equal parts action and drama, and giving Kiefer Sutherland one of the best roles of his career, “Designated Survivor” is the season’s first sure thing."

"There’s not enough family tension for it to be a domestic drama, not enough government intrigue to make it a political show, and not enough investigation to make it a procedural."

"TV-serier har hatt nok av gode presidenter å skilte med, jeg er spent på å se hvor vi kan plassere President Kirkman i det hele."

"It’s annoying how good “Designated Survivor” is. Annoying, because the topic is so ridiculously cheesy, and the emotions so deliberately over-the-top. And yet the concept is immediately engrossing, and the execution nearly seamless."

"Med knappe 45 minutter per episode har Designated Survivor kjapt vunnet anmeldernes hjerter. [...] Som dere kanskje har forstått i avsnittene ovenfor gleder også denne anmelderen seg til kommende episoder."
