POTUS TIME

'MADAM SECRETARY'
"THE SHOW MUST GO ON"

Toobworld Takeaways:

I watched this show every episode last season, but I don't think it was ever established when the timeline for that dimension began. In the second season premiere, we learned from the addled President Pro Tempore of the Senate Theodore Gates that both Gerald Ford and Ronald Reagan had been the POTUS in that world. So when did the diversion begin? 

At least with this information, we know definitely that 'Madam Secretary' can't be happening in the same world as 'The West Wing' because that line of succession stretched back to before Reagan's term in office. Maybe even before Jimmy Carter's - back to General Owen Lassiter (whom I always pictured as being played by Johnny Carson for some reason.....)

BCnU!
