re: Homeland season 2

Yeah, kind of slow, but after last week we were due for a letdown.

Wow. It was like they hired different writers for the Brody storyline of this episode. They send their most important asset on an incredibly dangerous mission that could have easily been handled by someone else. Flat tire was convenient. Then the guy decides to run down the highway through a field in plain sight instead of going into the woods. Then instead if just hiding from Brody he decides to jump out and hit a Marine with a rock. Then, instead of finishing him off he just runs away. They made both of these characters absolutely retarded for 1 episode.
