Anybody else watch? I watched the first few series, but didn’t bother with the last one.

Thought I’d give it another go…

Watched the first season 5 episode last week on Kodi. Shows promise. Enjoyed all seasons though the last 2 had lost their ficus a little compared to the first 2. Fingers crossed for the rest of season 5.

If Cary gets killed it’ll be even more watchable

Still watching it in the hope that Quinn is given license to go batshit psycho.

ooh Season 5 has started…..

First season – Excellent
Second season – story tailing off but still good
Third – nonsense – the whole story arc has just lost it
Fourth – totally rebooted and 90% of the baggage dumped. Good again.
Fifth – So far so good.

If you don’t like Carrie’s character it’s not for you as she is the star of the show. Personally I think Danes is superb in it.

Just watched CITIZENFOUR and really enjoyed it. Definitely worth a view pre/during Season 5 of Homeland to give things a bit of real world context.

This. Very much this.

I rate him as an actor – wold like to see him doing more movie stuff.

Gave up half way through series 3 as it seemed like it had been written by a hyperactive child, who’d been given a constant diet of skittles and full fat coke for a week. Complete and utter twaddle!

Decided to give it a go last night, and it was pretty good. So we’ll stick with it and see how it pans out.

Does anyone know the exact percentage of the show that is spent with a close up of Carrie’s angst-ridden furrowed brow? I’m guessing about 82%

That exact % is classified

The shows been very hit and miss. improved alot on S4, S5 is beginning well.

Tbh if they just made the entire show be based around quinn and saul it would be cracking.

Great shout.

A Quinn/Saul spin off in the style of a Mitch Rapp type character could be very interesting, if a little dark.

It might need a bit more colour than him just coldly shooting people in the forehead though!

Third – nonsense – the whole story arc has just lost it

Well, except the bit where Brody was hanged – that was stunning.

If you don’t like Carrie’s character it’s not for you as she is the star of the show. Personally I think Danes is superb in it.

This.

oh FFs, i’d only just made it to the end of season 3 and got my spare time back!

I’ve like the whole thing so far, Danes is excellent. Last season’s finale was brilliant TV, had me glued to the edge of my sofa!

Season 5 has just started? How on earth is this the first I’ve heard of it? Channel 4 still?

oh FFs, i’d only just made it to the end of season 3 and got my spare time back!

We have a huge backlog of TV series we’re trying to work through – it seems there is more quality TV than we have hours to watch….

I couldn’t remember the finale – wasn’t quinn out on a black ops? last night left me somewhat confused

Warning, contains swears http://www.thepoke.co.uk/2015/10/12/complete-emotional-range-carrie-mathison/

Enjoyed episode 1, will watch E02 tomorrow.

Looking to be a good autumn series wise, Homeland S05, The Blacklist S03 and Bron|Broen S03 starts in November IIRC.

Anyone else spot the subversive graffiti in Ep2?

It would seems that he has been.

He’s already a bag of frogs.
if sol accidentally left a picture of Quinn is the locker I’d pretty sure he’d top himself there and then!

batshit psycho with his shirt off, you mean.

Reset….

Also… Fargo Season 2 kicks off on CH4 this Sunday.

E03 is going to be interesting given who his next target is….

The quality of the video I was watching wasn’t too great. I hope it was the name I want it to be

Well that was disappointing, she shot Quinn in the back with a hunting rifle and instead of being paralyzed and coughing up blood, he got up from it because he was wearing a vest designed to stop….. pistol bullets. Classic bloody bullet proof vest trope…snore.

I can’t watch it now….it’s ruined……suspension of disbelief gone. 😡 😆

Spoiler alert!

FFS……..

Nice one Tom. 😀 Glad I’m a week ahead of Channel 4 too.

On the plus side, there was some great character acting…

Well that was disappointing

Not as disappointing as when some selfish dimwit gives the friggin’ plot away.

Nice one Tom. Glad I’m a week ahead of Channel 4 too.

I guessing you meant to say “Posting what happens in the show before the majority have watched it, is being a dick”

To be fair though, they’re not going to kill off either main characters in Episode 3….

Maybe, but we didn’t need exact details of how that happened. Or didn’t happen. So to be fair it was still supreme fuckwittery.

You say tomato, I say tomato……

If you haven’t watched the latest episode yet then don’t look at the thread. Surely!

The “spoiler” above was about an episode which hasn’t been broadcast yet (on Channel 4).

Yeah that was a **** trick.
