banana Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 It's officially turned into 24. Most of the season has been filler. Cash cowing it, bets on a 4th and 5th season? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Co.Down Hibee Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 It has got a lot better as the season goes on, Hopefully there is enough to get a 4th and 5th season, I'd have put my mortgage on this season being a belter but the early part was pretty meh. it was too much Dana and not enough Brody, 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CambCelt Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Homeland is back on track and I'm hooked again. I didn't catch the start of S3 so I missed Brody and Carrie going their separate ways but aside from that I've been glued to it since S1 E1. Love it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Co.Down Hibee Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 For some reason I get irritated by that wee trumpet noise in the opening titles i think the opening music is because of Carries love of jazz, 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boghead ranter Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 I can't believe that this is finishing already, when Z factor has been on for 1/3 of a year. Seething. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrestersKTID Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Very quick season and to be honest quite disappointing compared to seasons 2 and 1 especially. Too many storylines going nowhere and not as much tension. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the jambo-rocker Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 (edited) Whatever the case, I'm glad they hit the reset button. I do think that the show has accidentally shown why Carrie should not have got the most prominent post in the CIA at her age though. My only favourite bit of this entire season, was literally when a kid nutmegs Saul at football, four months on from it all. I can't find a gif of that anywhere.

Stevie Aitken's Love Child Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 You see, I'm of the opinion that that should be it. The final episode would, for me, have been a good way to sign off with the show. The entire show has been about Brodie, and with him now being dead, surely that should be the end of it?If it turns out he's not actually dead, that would be pretty ridiculous, given that we actually watched him hang for several minutes 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

banana Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 (edited) Wait... they've renewed for a season 4? Does any American TV series know when to exit gracefully rather than continue to hang on despite the story clearly starting to falter badly? I seriously thought that was the last episode, and it was wrapped up as such. Let it die, FFS! By the way, loved the scene with carry and the marker star, very touching.

Colin M Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 They should definitely end it there. Third series was hit and miss, had some great bits, some really bad bits and some utterly pointless bits. Towards the end it got exciting and the way it ended was probably about right - we suspend disbelief regularly in these shows but given everything that had happened, it had to catch up with Brody eventually - there was no way out. They've more or less written Saul out of it as well IMO and Carrie must be about done too. They could do something with underdeveloped characters like Quinn (although I found it annoying he went from anonymous assassin posing as analyst to all round CIA operative supreme involved in every single thing the agency was involved in!) and Dar Adal (who entered in season 2 as a mysterious head of black ops type but turned out to be little more than Saul's sounding board, even the hints that he was double crossing him didn't really amount to much) but I think making a season 4 is a mistake at this stage. The whole point of the show for me was about the moral ambiguity of Brody's position, his conflict between his family and his beliefs and missions, and a fairly constant "is he/isn't he a terrorist" that made it so thrilling at the start, and ultimately less so after the first season by which time we knew. While the ending of season 3 was exciting, they had established him as being "good" so that even the bluff that he was going to blow the whistle before killing Akbari was so obviously a bluff. They should let it lie now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
