Season 3
Declare your independence
Synopsis
Designated Survivor, Season 3 — 10 episodes on Netflix you can watch online on iFILM, 2019. For the first time, Tom Kirkman is running for the job. Not handed it. Actually running.
Each episode is titled with a hashtag. Each week a different flashpoint: child marriage, opioid lobbying, transgender rights, viral fake news, a Russian bomber drifting toward Seattle. The social commentary is less subtle than the ABC seasons, and the show commits to it. Underneath all of it, Hannah Wells follows a bioterrorism thread that starts as a strange flu cluster and gets deliberately worse. Aaron Shore faces a career-defining decision. Campaign manager Lorraine Zimmer pushes Kirkman toward positions he resists, and the distance between them widens.
Season 3 is shorter and blunter — this is Netflix's take on what happens to decent people once politics gets personal. Stream Designated Survivor Season 3 online on iFILM.
