The Homeland (TV) Thread

OMG ARE WE FINALLY RID OF DANA?! CAN IT BE!?!!?

Thank you Angela, thank you!

honestly though this should be the last we see of the brodys. “Dana went to start a new life, and the wife and son are chillin, grandma disappeared somewhere, THE END.”

NOW TAKE US BACK TO THE FUCKING TOWER OF DAVID

I’m curious as to how much Clear Blue paid for that product placement? The show’s still interesting, but not having Brody playing a major role so far has taken some of the wind out of the sails.

Dexter had his blood slides, Claire has her pregnancy tests.

Thought up a TVspot for the final season whenever that happens.

Narrator -"She could outsmart the terrorists and the CIA, but she couldn’t outsmart… AIDS."
Sol - "We can save her, make her stronger, smarter than ever before"
Brody - “I need to get myself checked out”

a TED Talk on Brody’s summer home. just watch the first 5 minutes. it’s wild. fools have bodegas, churches, and gyms in that bitch.

Man this season is getting interesting.

Is Sol seriously that desperate for his wife’s affection that he is going to let her sleep around so he can keep her?

Well when you’re 60 and nearly at the end of a long and stressful career, you can get lonely really quick.

And I agree, this season is getting back to its roots. See writers! You didn’t need to spend 2 seasons on a lurid romance to fill plot. If Brody had blown himself up at the end of season1 that would’ve been the most compelling shit. Now they’ve realized their error somewhat and going back to the tactical espionage action we enjoyed.

But they still can mess this up in later eps if they start intertwining the Brody x Carrie love plot with the central story again,

One thing I really like is their casting of Peter Quinn. Unlike most shows who cast special forces/ black ops dudes as Chris Redfield~esque jacked dudes, Homeland has an agent that looks like how much of them do.

Sauls wife was quite hot back in the day:

Time is a cruel mistress.

I’d still hit that :coffee:

I hope they don’t fall back into the Carrody romancy again, that wasn’t at all interesting.

ill say this… i think he doesnt know what he wants. he is an ol school spy trying to have a life an doesnt know how to have that. seriously…

quinn has become my favorite character… man he does so much ground work for everyone its crazy… next is saul… hot damn his mind is brilliant… that scene with the senator getting lured still cracks me up.

still lol at the lack of brody. still need more delicious wife of his though…

Shit am still pissed Brody never got to make it to the white house, I was thinking him and the old Vietnam vet pay master dude would make an awesome team. Plus having a legit muslim extremist ruling the oval office would pretty much just be like the Bush Jr era only we would have liked the guy in office.

Also yea, Brodies daughter would get dat smash, just need confirmation shes hit that sweet 16 lol

So did the CIA know where Brody was the whole time, or did those guys finally decide to cash in on the reward? I guess realistically, they could have flipped on Brody right away, and the CIA told them to just sit on him until they want him. Carrie thinks that Brody is her baby daddy? I assumed it’s that random dude she hooked up with a couple of times. Saul’s house got bugged because of his whore of a wife. He’s not going to be happy when he finds out. Damn, Quinn just does what’s best for business. Gotta respect that.

Hmm… in Breaking Bad the hydrofluoric acid ate through the tub.

Man, Saul’s out of a job in 9 days. I wonder if the Senator is going to meet an untimely end?

Damn is Carrie a compulsive bitch. I know you’re carrie-ing Brody offfspring with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome and your failed psycho genes, but to compromise everything, including your life was retarded.

But Fara, my oh my oh my… What a beauty.

How many times are they going to have her completely ignoring orders yet still being reinstated though.

So, does Saul need the Iranian assassinated before that guy’s confirmation, or does he just need Brody in place?

Brody is the one carrying out the assassination. I’m wondering if the extraction is a lie, they will leave him there to die but Clare & black ops guy will end up going to Iran save him.

Lol if there was a scenario of Brody and Rainman in the same room

bangs hand against head
Nrghh! Nrghh! Nrghh! Nrghh !

Great episode, no doubt Damian Lewis is going for that Golden Globe.

No he made the guy push his confirmation backabout a month or more. he is using this opportunity to get the high ranking officer out of the iranian lineup so his new guy can move up the ladder like he wants. Saul is real old school an i hope it pays off for him…

sniffles (dana) couldve been doing way more with herself than resorting to the maid work. i mean she did make it seem like she had a plan lined up.

Saul is a straight up G. Not only did he 1UP the senator but he didn’t even throw it in his face to “preserve the integrity of the CIA”.

Carrie is a dumb bitch, she could’ve easily ruined everything. They didn’t even add a scene asking Dana to, y’know, like not tell anyone on the planet that her father is alive and in America?

Man, Jivadi isn’t to be trifled with. I assumed the guy that was caught with Brody would be a casualty, but doing right in front of Brody really sends a message.

also he did it to protect his cover. it was an inevitability that poor dude was gonna break and no telling what that guy knew about his plans.

I’m glad the season finally picked up. Those first 3-4 episodes were pretty boring.

He clearly showed he’s calculating sociopath who is willing to do whatever it takes to save his own ass. This is the self-servile predictability that Saul is counting on. Still it was sad to see a good soldier die for nothing. If he didn’t help Brody, the situation would’ve still worked out fine.

Is it weird that I knew the Special Forces amputee was going to live the moment he admitted he had no kids? lol Writers.
