OFFICIAL HOMELAND Thread | FINAL SEASON

[laker4lifeman]

Who would've thought his wife was the terrorist.

Next week is looking great.

 

[venom lyrix]

I think the wife being the terrorist became obvious last episode (last week, not this past Sunday)

and I hate that Brody and Carrie hooked up and are going to continue to do so. Not only does it mess up the professionalism, and the case, but it was obvious and too easy too do.

I still think Saul is involved heavily somehow.

and based on the previews for next week, it seems like Brody is going to find out Carrie and them were spying on him during his first few days at home

 

[|A-Man|]

Great ep.

The wife was obvious. Signs pointing to Saul being the inside this ep, made him more suspicious with he was too upset to take it the first time. I like how the writer's cast more doubt on Brody and Saul this ep by how they effortlessly beat the lie detectors.

I called them hooking up a while back so I'm not shocked they're continuing it. The professionalism is gone but Carrie really never was. Sloppy job on protecting her informant on the inside, sloppy surveillance on Brody's house, sloppy tactics to get her superiors on her side which all failed and further alienated her, going to her boss' home and cursing him out, the illegal medication, and now she banging a possible traitor and terrorist. Seemed like just another step escalating to her collapse or she might be able to get it together just in time.

I figure she finds a way to play off the fact that she knows certain things about him she shouldn't.

did claire danes and Brody smash because she wants to get closer

you know what they say about keeping your enemy closer

last time i remember claire danes being this fine was back in 97' with DiCaprio in Romeo & Juliet

Wish Showtime Canada would air this show.  maybe they didn't do it because of the political views of this show, or was it the nudity and sexual provocative scenes 

 

[venom lyrix]

she didn't sleep with him to get closer, she slept with him bc she was drunk and stupid

They made it clear in the previews for upcoming episodes that they sleep together again though.  Not sure where its going.

He sonned her with that polygraph though.

Did anyone else think this thread was about Claire Dames? (walks to get coffee...)

Did you even read the first two pages?



Anyways... Tonights episode was insane... They're really throwing me for a loop with this talk about Walker being alive... Marine One being in the line of sight of that house

. 

Is Brody lying about killing Walker or did Abu Nazir replace Walker with another black guy who was already beaten to the point where Brody wouldn't realize the difference? Pretty insane regardless...

Looks like well be getting more insight to who is really running these terrorist sub-plots in the next ep.

 

[|A-Man|]

Yoooooo they flipped the script this ep. I'm thinking they're gonna heavily point to Saul like he gonna bang the blond, let her go and then kill his own team come to find they made the black guy the traitor. Son being alive is WILD. Great episode.

The whole Carrie and Brody thing actually applied pressure and made it better leading up to the climax. Son breaking down like that, then she gets exposed, answers all the questions truthfully for once and then just like that it's over. Actually had me rooting for them.

I figure now they told Brody to kill Walker to mess with him cuz they could while they were probably telling Walker that even his partner gave him up so he should give up on his country or told him that they already turned Brody so he might as well join.

They should've shown one scene with Walker and Brody meeting for next week's ep

 

[laker4lifeman]

Wow I didn't expect that god damn.

this show is

 

[cool hand Luka]

Not only is this show really good, it makes Dexter look that much worse this season

That's the ting though, they had to come out the gate strong to secure a 2nd season and hopefully more but now you gotta kinda look at the big picture and down the line some ppl start dying, then you get to w/e Abu Nazir is planning and them actually doing it and then FBI/CIA trying to stop it and after adding that with all the drama stuff that's maybe 4 good seasons. Dexter on the other hand is in a whole different place. Don't care for the religion angle much but it has developed his character more and flesh out the whole idea of a dark passenger.

My man, sorry for going on such a heavy Dexter rant, Dexter's just really irking me. Homeland benefits from being something fresh, so instead of analyzing so many details like I have done with Dexter, I'm just getting a grasp of the story.

You're right about saying maybe 4 good seasons, I honestly could barely see this going 3 seasons without it getting extremely played out. (I.E. The Killing on AMC) Meaning that instead of actually having the story progress they just keep putting off any major potential event (Nazir actually going through with a major attack).

 

[fac3 tak30v312]

It seems to me that both Brody and Walker have been re-programmed. The details of how he was tortured seems to follow along the lines of certain CIA programming techniques, and his explanation of Abu-Nazir's kindness towards him cemented it for me. All the fanfare and heroes welcome for Brody was meant to trigger Walker, but I still think Saul had something to do with the death of that prisoner

 

[uter zorker]

Damn

 

[laker4lifeman]

The wife is so stupid

. This episode started slow and then picked up. I wonder if walker is planning to kill brody now.

 

[rfx45]

Goddamn this show keeps blowing my mind. Just when my head is set one thing, then all of a sudden they introduce a whole new level that just makes everything questionable but in a good way. I am looking forward to this show every Sunday night than Dexter and Walking Dead now.

 

[|A-Man|]

Brody was in cahoots all along

Loving these twists. So I guess they turned both of them.

 

[venom lyrix]

So did anyone else think that right after they showed Walker open the case with the rifle, and Saul standing there outside his house as his wife left, that he was getting a shot to the head?

Because I did, my heart was racing bc I thought it was def happening and I was just waiting...then it didnt...

This show is crazy, best show on TV right now. Must watch

 

[venom lyrix]

I really liked how they tied in the actual capture of !%@+@% Bulger that was cool

 

[spidermachine916]

i'm still not trusting Sal in all this... remember when he was taking the polygraph? when dude asked him if he slipped the razor to the prisoner he said no, and for a brief moment the machine caught him in the lie. i had my eye on sal since then.
wow brody was in it the entire time

but i guess this part of the plan he wasn't suppose to know
EDIT: the wife

she should get arrested or charged with something for doing that

 

[mronegative]

Well damn, right? This show is that purest 24 would better acting and writing right now. I dunno if that twist was right on time, too soon or a mistake, but I'm all in with this.

And the wife...

I get it though. I do.

To be honest the best part of the episode for me wasn't even the ending, it was the party. Realizing this show really has a vision bigger than just 13 episodes, then make it up as we go along Dexter style. I'm hyped.

 

[hymen man]

Yeah, I don't think Brody is turned JUST yet.. maybe he's working with them for SOMETHING but completely turned.. idk. Can't really call anything with this show, lol

 

[|A-Man|]

^The previews shows the guy telling him to take the position that lady is offering him. Forget if it's for Senator or something, so I'd say he's apart of the plan somehow.

I just now noticed that things move so fast with bigger changes that they never did figure how dude got the razor or he got it from. So yeah, Saul is still suspect.

 

[venom lyrix]

this weeks episode was pretty bland, the ending didn't do much for me, seemed like a boring way to end, but next week seems solid.
