I don’t know how much room Homeland has to make a series of the premise, but it’s been very good so far, I’d recommend it. It doesn’t just drag it out forever - quite a lot happened in the last episode

Homeland is by far my favorite new show this season. That said, if the first 2-3 episodes didn’t grab you, you’re not likely to be grabbed by episodes 4-7. I was hooked by the end of the first episode, and while stuff has happened since then, it’s not like it’s a completely different show in terms of writing, pacing, etc.

???:eek:

I LOVE that show!

It should be on cable.

This pisses me off…that SHITE with Kyra Sedgwick persists while this gets the boot? Fuck NBC.
