Madam Secretary: Season 4 is pretty much like any of the many other political shows (like Scandal or, going way back, The West Wing) with sort of a more fantasy element compared with real life, though the election certainly gave the writers a field day for some additional drama.

SEASON SYNOPSIS
|
| It’s never politics as usual for Secretary of State Elizabeth McCord (TEA LEONI). In season 4 of Madam Secretary, McCord faces everything from international issues to personal upheavals. Whether she’s being accused of murdering a foreign diplomat, trying to contain a smallpox outbreak, or sending her daughter off to college, there’s no crisis she can’t handle. Her husband, CIA Agent Henry McCord (TIM DALY), stirs controversy by recruiting a former member of the Russian military to work for the Agency. She continues to advise President Conrad Dalton (KEITH CARRADINE), ever as she goes toe-to-toe with the White House Chief of Staff Russell Jackson (ZELJKO IVANEK).
Navigating the complicated twists and turns of the D.C. machine gets even more challenging when loyal State Department insider Nadine Tolliver (BEBE NEUWIRTH) decides to retire. But Elizabeth’s team only gets stronger with the addition of brilliant political strategist Kat Sandoval (SARA RAMIREZ). Faced with the threats of the world, Madam Secretary proves to be a global force. |
SPECIAL FEATURES – 1.0/5 |
| Previous season sets came with a slip cover but this one did not. The only features are some Deleted/Extended Scenes on select episodes. |
VIDEO – 4.0/5, AUDIO – 3.75/5
|
| The show is presented as originally televised with a 16×9 enhanced widescreen aspect ratio and looks pretty good and likely on par with how it aired and colors are bright throughout. Each episode comes with a standard but halfway decent Dolby Digital 5.1 track. |
OVERALL – 3.0/5 |
| Overall, Madam Secretary: Season 4 is pretty much like any of the many other political shows (like Scandal or, going way back, The West Wing) with sort of a more fantasy element compared with real life, though the election certainly gave the writers a field day for some additional drama. This DVD release has good video/audio transfers but the features were lacking. |
