‘Madam Secretary’ season 3, episode 6 preview: Dimitri returns in ‘The Statement’
Given that Dimintri was one of the most fascinating guest characters through the second season of “Madam Secretary,” it is fairly easy now to express some excitement at the thought of getting to see more of him on next week’s “The Statement.” what also could be interesting is seeing his return be more of a personal nature. While it is certainly possible that we end up seeing this character get roped in to some of the craziness that is happening in other places on the show, some of the first details coming out suggest that this many not necessarily be the case.
Synopsis – “When Elizabeth discovers that a terrorist bombing at an Illinois coffee shop was funded by someone with close ties to the Saudi government, she makes a bold move after the Saudi ambassador refuses to bring the man to justice. Also, Matt refuses to issue a statement when news breaks that he and the bomber are linked to the same mosque, and Henry reaches out to Dmitri when he hears he’s having trouble adjusting to his new life in Phoenix, on MADAM SECRETARY, Sunday, Nov. 13 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Chris Petrovski reprises his guest role as Dmitri Petrov, Henry’s former operative.”
Does all of this sound fascinating? Absolutely, especially sense the show does a great job of making it clear that almost every move that Bess makes during her time as Secretary of State has far-reaching and potentially even devastating consequences to the entire world. Yet, we do wish sometimes that the show was less procedural, and we had time to dive deeper into many different stories that we’re hearing about.
We also wish that we were getting a few more hints here and there about the election storyline, given that this is to date one of the defining characteristics of this season, and also one of the things we are the most excited to see unfold in the weeks ahead. This may be especially true once we get past the real election of Tuesday and some of our fatigue from that is gone.
