Premise

Madam Secretary explores Secretary Elizabeth McCord's life as the determined United States Secretary of State.

The show also focuses on the personal lives of the characters.[2][3][4][5]

Cast and characters

Main article: List of Madam Secretary characters

Main

  • Téa Leoni as Elizabeth "Bess" Adams McCord, the United States Secretary of State. She spent twenty years as a CIA analyst before becoming a professor of political science at the University of Virginia. She was appointed by her old boss, Conrad Dalton, who is now the President of the United States, to replace Secretary of State Vincent Marsh, who died in a plane crash
  • Tim Daly as Henry McCord, Elizabeth's husband of 25 years. A theology professor and a former Marine captain/aviator during Operation Desert Storm, his unique blend of skills are sought by the National Security Agency, which engages him as an operative in combating religious extremism. At the end of season 3, Henry is named the head of the CIA Special Activities Division
  • Bebe Neuwirth as Nadine Tolliver (season 1–4), Elizabeth's chief of staff who had a six-year affair with the deceased Secretary of State, Vincent Marsh, beginning when he was a senator. Originally suspicious and resentful of the new Secretary of State, Nadine soon learns to trust Elizabeth, and the two cultivate a strong working relationship. In season 1, Nadine slowly begins to date again, romancing NASA Administrator Glenn, and later falls into a relationship with the recurring political consultant Mike Barnow. In season 4, Nadine leaves the State Department to spend more time with her family.
  • Željko Ivanek as Russell Jackson,[6] White House chief of staff
  • Erich Bergen as Blake Moran, Elizabeth's personal assistant, and the only member of her staff that she hired rather than inherited. After college, he began a career in finance on Wall Street, but hated it. In season 5, Elizabeth made good on her promise to fire him, only to rehire him as her new assistant policy advisor
  • Patina Miller as Daisy Grant, Elizabeth's press coordinator. Daisy dates Matt during season 1 but goes on to date other men following their breakup. In season 3 she dates "Kevin" from Budget and Planning, who turns out to be an undercover operative for the CIA investigating the State Department. He is killed in a weapons-trafficking conspiracy, and Daisy subsequently finds herself pregnant with his child. In the fourth season, Daisy gives birth to a daughter Joanna Grant
  • Geoffrey Arend as Matt Mahoney, Elizabeth's speechwriter. Matt and Daisy dated during season 1, but ended their relationship

Conrad served in the United States Marine Corps as a second lieutenant during the Vietnam War and was the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency during Elizabeth's time at the CIA. In the third season, Dalton secures reelection as an independent after failing to secure his party's nomination, partly due to a controversial change in policy championed by Elizabeth. He offers Elizabeth the role of Vice President during his campaign, but eventually names someone else in order to further his campaign. Elizabeth remains the Secretary of State.
  • Sebastian Arcelus as Jay Whitman, Elizabeth's current chief of staff and previous senior policy advisor (recurring, season 1–2; main, season 3 - present).

  • Note: During the National Football League season and several weeks through the season, the series airs at 10:30 pm ET/9:30 pm CT to account for game or PGA Tour golf overruns (there are no delays from the Mountain Time Zone westward). Since its move to the last hour of primetime, several new episodes have been delayed a week at the last minute due to games overrunning into the 8:00 pm timeslot to allow local newscasts to start as close to 11:00 pm ET/ 10:00 pm CT as possible; in this case, a repeat of the series airs in the Mountain Time Zone westward instead, with Canada's Global following CBS's scheduling in order to take advantage of simsub opportunities.

Critical reception

Madam Secretary has been met with generally positive reviews from TV critics. On Metacritic, the show has a score of 66 out of 100, based on 31 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[57] On Rotten Tomatoes, the show holds a Top Critics rating of 72%, and an average audience score of 83%. The site's consensus for the first season reads, "Bolstered by Tea Leoni's strong central performance, Madam Secretary is a solid but unspectacular political drama."[58]

Criticism

Three women have served as Secretary of State to date: Madeleine Albright from 1997 to 2001 under Bill Clinton, Condoleezza Rice from 2005 to 2009 under George W. Bush, and Hillary Clinton from 2009 to 2013 under Barack Obama. Shortly after the series' debut, Fox News asked if the show served as a campaign ad supporting Hillary Clinton, but quoted the Los Angeles Times saying the lead character was "no Hillary knock-off" and a New York publicist calling the casting of a woman "simple business and smart on CBS' behalf."[59] Conservative activist organization Culture and Media Institute said "The connections in the show between Elizabeth and Hillary are clear, from the blond hair to the pantsuits."[59]

When the trailer of the fifteenth episode of season 3 "Break in Diplomacy" was released showing McCord responding to unwanted sexual advances by fictional Philippine president Datu Andrada by punching Andrada in the face, it became controversial in the Philippines. Viewers thought there were parallels between Andrada and real-life President Rodrigo Duterte, who was known for making inappropriate and sexist remarks.[60] The Philippine Embassy in Washington published a statement protesting the negative depiction of the presidential character on its Facebook page.[61]

The first episode of the fourth season, "News Cycle", led to a protest from East Timor's Minister of State José Ramos-Horta, a Nobel Peace Prize laureate. He said, "It is a slander against a country that only shows ignorance and racism."[62] The TV show used the border dispute between Australia and East Timor in the Timor Sea as background story. (The dispute is transferred in the TV show to the South China Sea, although neither Australia nor East Timor borders it.) East Timor is shown as a country controlled by a Mexican drug cartel and used for drug transfer. US Secretary of State McCord is asking China to take measures to prevent the leader of the drug cartel from making a narco-state out of East Timor.[62]
