I will agree that if this is going to be chemical warfare it will be a big dissapointment. It's been done ad nauseum and I don't find that plot particularly interesting. The only twist is the internal connection w/ the prez's right hand man but we'll see.
I have to say that with the exception of Keifer Sutherland and maybe Jean Smart (First Lady), the acting is only slightly above average. Mary Lynn Rajskub (Chloe) is just plain awful. The storylines are also pretty tough to swallow.
It's the violence and suspense that keep us coming back like sheep..... Same story lines.. It's getting so predictable my wifes telling me whats about to happen... Jumped the shark episode coming soon... It's the beginning of the end for this puppy....
