    honestly im just .... not fucking interested in quinn being brain damaged and carrie not giving him credit or believing him or whatever the fuck. its just boring to me.

    this show used to be more than a sloppy romantic drama.

    I agree, missing the espionage/secret dark ops missions and decision, internal battles for power and oh ya the stuff that made the show interest...Carrie can jump anyone she wants as long as she needs to save the world most of the time. This mommy I love the liberals now BS and Quinn being useless to the point he cannot defend himself is just sad and depressing. Someone needs to plan a terror attack on that show and quick.

    exactly, i miss tradecraft.

    the early shows were very oblique but deliberate homages to JLC and the rest of the great spy authors.

    this is a deeply unpleasant soap opera, literally nothing more.

    yes yes yes. ugh, just watched first two episodes. if quinn can't kill what is the point? i am still tilted every time this show drags the stupid soap opera stuff into the show. who can forget that whiney teenager from the earlier story line, the ridiculous escape to canada and then ending up in Brazil somehow. concept is great, but ugh, painful what these writers do to us.

    I have no clue wtf the fuck is going on bro. Please help me. Carrie and her daughter is the most useless storyline, I feel traumatized watching Peter on the screen. Half the time I don't know if he's acting or is it supposed to be the damage from that poison.

    also this episode was 41m 25s long.


    also going to air with a plot about how the cia is running lethal black ops against an elected maverick president with her own ideas on the future of our country seems tone deaf if not outright irresponsible.

    Just because I do not agree with you does not make me small handed or moronic.

    If you feel homeland will influence the actual country then you also believe the world is flat and no one I mean no one.....wait one second, ok at least one guy this week believes that.
