Now well past its best by date. Need the whole crew to get blown up and be done with it.
So don't watch it! Go and watch something like Crank if you want non-stop action and explosions.
Homeland isn't supposed to be that. It has always been a combination of slow-moving plot and nuanced detail.

I'm enjoying the build up. It keeps you guessing a bit.

I'm missing the bit where I said I didn't senjoy it anymore. Nope can't find that just where I think it's past it's best by date and time to bring it to an end. So sorry

So you still enjoy it. You just don't want you or anyone else to enjoy it anymore?

This is what I meant in my earlier post. We in Ireland were ahead of you , you passed us out last week when we missed an episode, and now a week later we leep frog ahead of you again. Can't figure it out why that happened, can anyone ?

Anyone else think this got quite topical this week...

New American President doesn't get on so well with the old establishment secret service, so said secret service leaks info via the press.

Sounds familiar wink

Quinn in home defence mode, showing how to deal with people breaking your windows...

Was a very slow start to the series but seems to really be coming together now.

Ep 6:


"Do you know this guy? we need to find out who he is!"

You could start by trying the apartment across the street?

I mean, I'm no agent but that's where I'd probably start

You've got to wonder about the after care provision for brain-damaged ex-CIA master assassins?

"We've only trained you in a 100 different ways to kill people, to be suspicious of everyone and noted that you're still a few fries short of a happy meal but sure, off you go into the world alone without appropriate supervision"

Seems to be quite realistic
Think how many ex-army guys we (and presumably the Americans) have sleeping rough and suffering from PTSD
