Series Description:

The Commander-in-Chief TV show was a 60 minute drama series on ABC about a female vice-president of the United States who had to decide whether or not to assume the Presidency from a dying President. Her party, her President, and nearly everyone else she knew pressured her to resign and clear the way for someone "more appropriate" to fill the highest office in the land. But despite the pressure from all sides, she did her duty and became the first female President of the United States!

Commander-in-Chief Trivia:

The exterior shots of Air Force Two in the pilot episode were taken from the 1997 movie, "Air Force One"!

Geena Davis is outstanding in her role on Commander-In-Chief but she has had the lead on a series before. The "Geena Davis Show" was a sitcom that aired for the 2000/2001 season. She had another series five years before that which was called, "Sara" but it only lasted a few months. Geena auditioned for a cast member spot on "Saturday Night Live" in 1984 and didn't get hired. Happily, she had gained sufficient fame to host the show five years later on April 22, 1989.
