Designated Survivor is a political thriller TV series that premiered on ABC in 2016. The show follows Tom Kirkman, a low-level cabinet member who is suddenly appointed as the President of the United States after a catastrophic attack on the Capitol during the State of the Union address. Since then, the show has gained a huge following and has spawned three successful seasons. However, with the final episode of season 3 airing in July 2019, fans are now wondering if there will be a fourth season of Designated Survivor.
Is Season 4 Happening?
At the moment, there has been no official confirmation from the show’s creators or network as to whether Designated Survivor will be renewed for a fourth season. The show has been on-again-off-again since its inception, and it is possible that the show may not be renewed this time around.
That said, the show has been immensely popular with viewers, and the season 3 finale ended with a cliffhanger, leading many to believe that the show will be renewed for a fourth season.
What We Know So Far
At this point, all we know is that the show’s creators are currently in talks with Netflix about the possibility of a fourth season. Netflix has expressed interest in the show, and the show’s creators have expressed a desire to continue the story.
If the show is renewed, it is likely that it will be picked up by Netflix rather than ABC. This could mean a longer season with more episodes, as Netflix is known for producing longer seasons than traditional networks.
What Could Happen Next
If Designated Survivor is renewed for a fourth season, it is likely that the show will pick up where it left off in season 3. Tom Kirkman will likely continue his battle against the corrupt leaders of the United States, and the show could explore the implications of the cliffhanger ending.
It is also likely that new characters will be introduced, and that the show will explore new plotlines and storylines. It is possible that the show will focus more on the international aspect of the story, as this was an element that was largely unexplored in the first three seasons.
At this point, it is still unclear if Designated Survivor will be renewed for a fourth season. However, with the show’s immense popularity and the cliffhanger ending of season 3, it is likely that the show will be picked up by Netflix and that fans will get to see Tom Kirkman’s story continue.
