Is it wrong that this thread didn't sell me on the show based on comparisons to West Wing, but because I've always had a crush on Tea Leoni?

So after having watched the first episode, I'm liking the show but it's kind of hard to quantify. It first seems like it wants to be West Wing, complete with Sorkin-ish rapid-fire dialogue, but then veers into (more) serious politics with the kidnapped kids and then caps off with a conspiracy and assassinations in the white house/CIA.

6 episodes in and I'm not really getting why POTUS wanted her for this job. He's all 'you think outside the box, hell you don't know there IS a box' in the pilot but he and the assistant guy do nothing but make poo poo harder for her and throw her under the bus at every turn. I am starting to think that the POTUS' plan was to kill the former Secretary of State and think that Leoni's character would be one he could control and dispose of later.

OK, I'm in on this one. It's a good show. Madam Secretary is basically West Wing Lite with a dash of family drama and the B Plot being thise White House/CIA murder conspiracy mystery.

I don't know what it is about this show, it's not very good honestly but I can't stop watching it.
