Homeland

[hornetrider]

Caught up with it on All 4 or whatever it's called, the new 4OD.

Well, it's cutting edge isn't it? Very close to the bone and all the more compelling for it. Great start to the series.

Very solid opening to the season & highly contemporary. Lots of people predicted Homeland would move away from mirroring current affairs & the West's fight against radical Islam. Lots of people were wrong.

interesting opener...

although some of the dialogue felt out of place.

the hezbollah leader saying what eh said then letting her live...?

Saul's final conversation with Quinn...

not a bad start though

was a bit James Bond wasn't it - I will fight you till I die, and the obvious thing to do is shoot you in the head right now, as I want to all the risk of kidnapping you, but I will instead let you live so you continue to fight me and bring my downfall

I thought 'you' meant 'Murica/CIA whereas she works for a charity foundation now, and approached them with honour.

I thought it was pretty poor tbh. Same old same old. Confusing and slow.

I said to MrsC before Quinn decoded it, it's going to be ***** but I was still stunned when it was!

And Quinn never fails…..

[Blaster72]

Will Quinn last the series though??

[hornetrider]

Can't see Quinn doing that. And Saul wants Carrie dead, wtf.
