warpspeed Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 I was fortunate enough to be in Minnesota last month for 2 weeks. The hotel I was in had a less than stellar channel lineup so I was poking around Showtime & HBO on-demand and found Homeland. I really liked Damian Lewis in "Life" so I thought I'd give it a spin. I finally got through the first 2 seasons and I must say I cannot wait for season 3 this Fall. Anyone else ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
818-DVC Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 I found this show the same exact way you did. stuck out of town in an extended stay on business for 6 weeks. I had showtime. I love this show! only seen season 2 so far, but I plan on watching season 1 as soon as I have the time. Unlike Sopranos, where I can predict what's going to happen next, Homeland always throws a curveball at me. Finale was so unexpected! I got 4 of my friends watching it. Shameless is a close 2nd for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kibster Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Best show I've seen in a very long time. Sharp,edgy, and every week can't wait until the next one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JimmyZip Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 The wife is an addict. I'm not into the show as I haven't really been with her most of the time to pick it up. if I am in the room though I can watch it. Pretty good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tiny Warrior Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 We've been watching it since the beginning...absolutely love the show. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bbbean Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Other than the cast, the characters, the writing, the plot, the pacing, and the camera work, I can find nothing to like about the show. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RickRak2000 Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Brody's daughter is one of the most irritating characters I've seen in a long time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
warpspeed Posted January 21, 2013 Author Share Posted January 21, 2013 Brody's daughter is one of the most irritating characters I've seen in a long time. Almost as bad as Bella in Twilight. Not quite, but almost. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
meatsauce Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 I'm very curious to find out what direction the show will go in now that Abu Nazeer is dead... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
benos Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Just started season 2 - the show is awesome. Although most of the acting is top notch, IMO it's the screenplay / script writing that puts it over the top. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ronhonda Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 IMHO one of top 3 shows currently on television. Curious in how this show compares to the original which I think is from Israel. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
meatsauce Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 One things for sure about Homeland - Claire Danes sells the hell out of being crazy. Awesome show. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jman Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Danes has the hardware (Emmy) for her role. Very good drama. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Trini Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 They need to lose the daughter. I like the fact that they are still working the bomb angle. I wonder if Lewis get paid for just being mentioned and not have any screen time? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
warpspeed Posted November 26, 2013 Author Share Posted November 26, 2013 One things for sure about Homeland - Claire Danes sells the hell out of being crazy. Awesome show. At first, she bugged me but after about 4 episodes, I got it. She plays crazy pefectly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jman Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 I would not be surprised if the daughter role was written out on the last episode. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
benos Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 I just finished season 2 last night. Can't wait to start season 3! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tiny Warrior Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Kinda surprised with the last episode. Don't want to spoil things, but I'm referring to the biggest thing that happened. I guess the show has move to a different/new angle starting next year. Wasn't sure how long they could string out the "story". Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dane Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Finished watching Season 3 the other night. It's been a great series. Has anyone watched The Bridge? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
benos Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 I'm losing on watching season 3. I just recently got cable (satellite acutally, DISH, or the first time in my life), and since I am new to the service, season 3 is not available. So I started at the beginning of season 4, and whoa... did I miss a lot. I thought season 3 would available cheap on DVD by now, but I can't find it for less than $45'ish. Bummer.

swedge58 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Love the show but watching Claire Danes cry all the time makes me want to punch a baby!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
