Promo & Post Mortem Interview



Have you been writing toward a 22-episode season, or does the pickup change the game for plotting out the season?

It doesn't change things. We always had different signposts we were building to. We had a longer arc in mind if we were going to get the opportunity to tell those stories. Now that we are, we'll just dive into that. But it's not changing the short-term, and it allows us to fully explore the long term.

Let's dive into this week's episode, which introduces Peter MacLeish, a war hero, congressman and the sole survivor of the premiere's explosion. Can you talk through the development of this idea that there would be an undesignated survivor — someone who might be designated for another more nefarious purpose altogether?

The goal was, without giving anything away, to create a character who was going to survive and would raise questions about the nature of his survival. It was very much by design, a guy we want our audience to have questions about. He's going to be a big part of things [moving forward], both for reasons that we see, and also for reasons that I hope will come as a surprise. He'll be important not only to Hannah's storyline, but to the president's storyline as well.
