    Homeland Season 2

    Season three trailer: I'm probably in a very small minority on this one, but I'm glad the show's still following Brody's family even though he's on the run now. I think Morena Baccarin and Morgan Saylor put in incredible work on this show. That being said, I think that there's enough drama...

    Homeland Season 2

    "I was caught right at the edge of the blast, and it sent me reeling. I needed a night to collect myself and make sure I was up to tip-top shape and not going to relapse into mania before coming back in."

    Great point! Absolutely.

    Homeland Season 2

    What I love is the symmetry between the seasons; the first season ended with Brody ascendant and Carrie about as low as she could get. The second season ended with Carrie basically the second in command to the acting director of the CIA, while Brody's about as low as he could get. A bullet to...

    Homeland Season 2

    It's amazing the way this show tweaks the audience's allegiances. With Nazir out of the picture and all of his top in-country lieutenants in custody, ending the external threat to the American public, the game shifts to the surviving players on the American side. And on that front, I'm rooting...

    Homeland Season 2

    Yes. This season isn't anywhere near as frighteningly plausible as the first season was at its best, but it easily reaches those suspenseful heights. I really appreciated that speech. Most movies have terrorists that seem to exist to twirl their mustaches. They're evil so the good guys can stop...

    Homeland Season 2

    I agree. I'm not so convinced that the actual end game will end of Brody dead, but it's only common sense that the CIA would terminate him as soon as his value had ended. Quinn is apparently an American James Bond, trained to kill for God and country. I definitely agree with the consensus here...

    Homeland Season 2

    It was definitely a study in the sins of the past dragging you down. Now that his cards are on the table, he wants to put this whole mess behind him. He sees the life he could have had if it hadn't gotten into bed with Nazir, and he mourns the loss of it. You've captured Brody in a nutshell. I...

    Homeland Season 2

    Mike didn't know Saul. He set up a meeting with his friend, Glenn Peterson. Glenn apparently kicked it upstairs, and Mike found himself blindsided by Saul and Estes.

    Homeland Season 2

    I was expecting the tailor's shop to be booby trapped and them all killed in the explosion. But three men in full SWAT gear storming the shop and mowing the entire operation down in broad daylight? Definitely didn't see that coming. Once again the show jukes when you think it will jive. Morgan...

    Homeland Season 2

    I wonder where they're going with the hit-and-run accident with Dana and the vice president's son. Sort of seems out of left field as a storyline, not really connected to anything else that's going on. I wonder if the accident will ultimately destroy Walden's presidential chances (as well as...

    Homeland Season 2

    Well, Patrick nailed it. Point by point. That's definitely the most audacious moment on TV in recent memory. Whether it proves to be a turning point into something extraordinary or the moment the show jumped the shark, we won't know until later. But wow. Poor Dana. She's a good kid, and her...

    My theory is that he'll turn himself in before they take him in.

    Homeland Season 2

    The whole episode built to that moment. It was one the show had more than earned after the horrible place Carrie was left at the end of the first season. After what happened in this episode, the likelihood of Brody being turned into a double-agent increased exponentially. It's not just that...

    Homeland Season 2

    And it really answers the people who thought they'd chickened out by not having Brody blow himself up in the bunker. There are so many more rich storytelling options with him alive than if they'd gotten the one-off shock value of killing him. That's a hell of a trump card for Saul. I hope he...

    Homeland Season 2

    One thing that's going to be fascinating for me this season see watching how different Damian Lewis's performance is this season versus last. His job as Brody during the first season was to be a cypher; the central mystery of the show was: Who is Sgt. Nicholas Brody? This season, we know exactly...

    Homeland Season 2

    Yes, Showtime! Thank you. Unfortunately don't get that one either. If they decided to air "Shameless" and "Homeland" at the same time, it'd probably be worth it for me to drop the coin for the station. As it is, I'll have to be a pest to the friends who DO get Showtime.:)

    Homeland Season 2

    Just came here to post the same thing. One of the most beautifully edited trailers for a television show I've ever seen. A few minor spoilers in some of the images, but generally a trailer that does a good job of giving us the texture of the new season without giving us anything solid about what...
