    I really didn't think the episode was that great to be honest. Better than the previous ones yes, but it's still too soon to get excited about this show again.

    Didn't she go to Mike in the previous episode? I'm guessing that didn't work and figured Carrie would be able to find her since she's CIA. Who knows. But Carrie was pretty dumb to jeopardize the whole ploy they had going all because of Dana.

    I probably wouldn't do it, but I understand why people would. Whenever Dana appears on screen, I usually check twitter on my ipad and only kinda pay attention. The amount of time wasted on her so far this season has been crazy.

    Could Dana be the Homeland equivalent of Even Flow live?

    Not sure if you were a 24 fan, but she is the new Kim Bauer. Big time. And maybe even worse.

    over under on how many lines chris will have all season? so far, i think he has muttered 2 or 3 sentences. this week's episode was funny. you just see him slowly appear from behind a wall as dana was walking back to her room. this kid must be the worst actor in the world for them to make him that insignificant.


    i'm saying about 5 lines more for the next 7 episodes. what say you?

    Ha! I'd read your post last night with this (fitting) term.

    This morning, we were watching a police pursuit on the local news and the chopper following it flew by a huge billboard for Homeland, with Brody and Carrie on it.

    I said "hey, it's gingernut!" :mrgreen:

    what did everyone think? decent episode. liked how carrie was able to turn the tables though i'm a little unsure of how that unfolded. watched it late after the game and was sleepy.


    however....is it brody's baby? gotta be right? god i hope i was dreaming that scene. introducing a baby to this show has disaster written all over it.

    Liked it. Saul is falling apart and Carrie is coping well, for a change. Quinn is a solid, quietly competent GREAT partner with Carrie. I Loved his comment about her crazy Brody sightings map- "You're doing your job" - when they both know that isn't the reason. The interrogation should be riveting. And I'm sure there will be fallout from the murders Javadi committed.

    Poor Carrie, that test isn't going to magically be negative one day :cry:

    I guess that's why she stopped her meds? Not sure what the thorazine shot would do to a pregnancy - nothing good, I assume. And I don't know why they wouldn't give her a preg test on admission before forcibly drugging her. Maybe they considered her an emergency because she acted/was so out of control.

    I assume it's Brody's based on the number of tests in the drawer. Yes, that was a real soapy turn. Like a soap, she will more likely miscarry than end up with a baby, but who knows.

    She turned things around with Javadi by making him clear the room, then letting him know that Saul found out that he was stealing money from his bosses in Iran, and blackmailing him with the info

    Yep, I can't really see how that storyline is going to be a success.

    Also, the Brody family story was woeful this week. One minute Dana is running away from home with someone her mother didn't really know and everyone is freaking out. Then she's back home for about 6 seconds before leaving home... to live with someone her mother doesn't know. Apparently it's ok this time though (even if Chris still couldn't find anything to say)

    All in all a good week.

    As i've said i've enjoyed the dana story, but no matter how bitter or angry the girl is how does a mother let her daughter walk out the door with a person she doesn't know.

    My mom would have beat my ass :lol:

    I like quinn a lot. That iranian dude went nuts in that house that was cool.
