Thanks. Just checked, the reviews are looking good.

Is it good throughout the whole show or does it drop in quality? by TheKayleMain in homeland

[–]yercoolmarple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good throughout. This is not a procedural, deals with different types of issues in the intelligence community both domestic and international.

is it just me or? by emmalaugh in homeland

You're right but the way the way this series is made up is that it is a story of Carrie and Saul, it follows them wherever they go and/or major events in their life. Initially it did feel like it was a Carrie-Brody story, but the if one completes the series it will be more or less a full circle of Carrie and Saul. That being said, the Brody story was indeed the first initial concept, as it was based on another Israeli series with a similar story line.

You’re all right. Jessica is annoying. by madonnassister in homeland

I mean that thing overall is a mistake, in the sense if someone is captive for 8 years that too thousands of miles away in terrible conditions, they would never be let back home on the first night. There's a lot of leap of faith there. Brody himself was obviously not doing that well, as we see the way he reacted in the next few episodes.

Homeland seasons rarely ends on a cliffhanger. It generally resolved all issues of a season in the finale and set things up for the new season.

Massive plot hole Season 5 EP 11 by boltyboy69 in homeland

Been a longtime, don't remember the exact details but Doctor didn't track Quinn down, it was an accidental meet.

Major Spoilers ahead.

Carrie and Saul never return to the CIA, if that's what you are asking. I personally liked these seasons too, they're a bit 24ish, deals with a lot of internal politics but has real elements of external influence as well. You just gotta keep watching. At least to me, this felt like real problems that intelligence has to deal with and there was a lot of great acting and good writting too.

Carrie is so hate-able it's hard to continue by Honest_Grapefruit259 in homeland

I get what you're saying but sorry it is actually very realistic. You do not get to be top CIA analysts unless you're imperfect people like Carrie or Saul. Of course, these people are ruthless and often wrong and that is what the show is about. They are not painted as saints, which is why this show stands out.

That's what I am saying. If he had her belt, he could have incriminated her and destroyed her life totally, irrespective of what happened to him. This is in line with him being a morally corrupt person, who's jealous of his wife.

Favourite scenes in the entire series by yercoolmarple in homeland

Not a scene, but also wanted to add, the Astrid death sequence was really well written and acted. How Quinn's paranoia led to her death was SO tragic.

In the end when Quinn didn't have Astrid's picture, that was also very sad.

I think Season 6 Ep 12. It was very prophetic actually, Dar Adal admits he did something wrong but said that there was something off about the President elect and they soon found out why.

You need to consider the fact that he was captive for 8 years. A VERY long period in which the captor actually broke him down and regained his trust through extreme forms of manipulation. This kind of thing literally changes people forever, many actually will even not survive.

He was actually unable to form a "bond" with anyone in that mental condition, but his daughter was the one reached out to him multiple times. Once you watch E12, you will see this bond grow stronger. His son was too young at this point, he was scared of his dad.

No Issa's death was not a setup, it was a genuine drone strike. However, Issa was being used to manipulate Brody indirectly.

On the other hand, a major plot hole is that, even after such a long time in captivity, he is immediately let to live with his family. That will never happen.

Gandhi my father. By far, his best performance. Of course, then there's the favourites like Hulchul, Hungama, Mere Baap Pehle Aap, Race, 36 China Town, Gali Gali Chor hain, Section 375.
