Homeland, season 3

[NrM]

I prefer my Carrie only slightly crazy, not batshit.

I hope they don't drag this out.

 

agreed. This shit is just annoying now. 

Very cringe worthy last episode.

Really? I was impressed by the camerawork during Carrie's "meltdown." It also felt believable.

 

Someone with bipolar can refute the realism in Carrie's drug trip.

[IEAngelsfan]

Interesting episode and the show is finally starting to pick up steam. 

 

Why is the head of Pakistani intelligence helping Carrie?  Does he have an agenda or does he really feel sorry for Carrie?  If Saul makes it out, I wonder if her betrayal will have a lasting impact on their relationship.

 

Finally, I'm starting to look forward to next week's episode.

[Tank]

wow, carrie just gave up saul. that was something.

 

the prisoner exchange looks like it could be real high-powered excitement. gotta wonder if saul and carrie have something in play in all of this - wouldn't surprise me in the least.

 

i figured carrie would be the one to figure out about her drugs being changed. 

[Lou]

now THAT was a good episode

[Jay]

Why is the head of Pakistani intelligence helping Carrie?

 

Good question.  Maybe there's something he doesn't like about his colleague what's her name.

 

As somebody said, aren't they (the Pakis) supposed to be on our side?

 

That Dennis Boyd is really in trouble now.

[NJHalo]

Very good episode last night.

 

I have to agree that Saul and Carrie have a twist that no one else knows about

[NrM]

Definitely the best episode of the season.

Love how intense the show is even though there isn't all that much "Michael Bay explosion action"  going on.

yep. by far the best episode of the season. i just assumed Saul would make it out

[Taylor]

That f'ing sucked, watching Saul re-find the will to live and then run right back into the Taliban.

 

In real life, I don't think the U.S. government would agree to the prisoner exchange.

Has someone as high profile as Saul been captured in the past 10-20 years?

Nothing comes to mind for me, but I'm sure I'm forgetting someone.

[Tank]

i would imagine a lot of that stuff is kept quiet, poozy.

Well, we made the exchange for the disgraceful traitor army sgt recently. 

 

WASHINGTON â€” The lone American prisoner ofwar from the Afghan conflict, captured by insurgentsnearly five years ago, has been released to Americanforces in exchange for five Taliban detainees held atGuantánamo Bay, Cuba, Obama administrationofficials said Saturday.

It's hard to imagine they wouldn't do the same for a former CIA director.

Spoiler Alert: Homeland is a tv show

Your lack of common courtesy is disturbing.

[Tank]

saul berenson, muslim whisperer.

[Tank]

what a great episode tonight. 

[IEAngelsfan]

Yup, me likey a lot.

 

So now we know what they were planning all along.  Will the embassy be able to repel the attack?  We'll have to wait two stinkin weeks to find out!

[Lou]

i still want to know how the big-boned chick makes her comeback

[Tank]

Yup, me likey a lot.

they pulled a fast one on us. i was expecting the U.S. to hit THEM with some kind of attack.

[NrM]

Now that's something I can see as a complaint for not being "realistic"

The Military Police and security wouldn't simply abandon their posts to rescue a convoy. Especially in an embassy with top secret material.

 

but yea..  we'll see if that is the case next episode.

 

I don't care either way, though.

Like ie said, it's a tv show....
