I’d stick with it. The show has some problems but, on balance, it’s very entertaining…

Season 6 was terrible. How has the “analyst” become so relevant to the point where the PoUSA seeks her counsel? Why is she always at the right place at the right time? How has someone so emotionally fragile placed in places like Islamabad and Bagdad? Ahh, so many questions …

During season 4 or 5 I turned it off 1/2 way through an episode and have never watched another episode.


The middle of the series is bad. I almost did this as well, but I did stick with it and the last couple seasons pick up nicely.

there are estimated about 21,600 employees of the CIA

she is so good that she is the only person in the agency that can crack everything that is critical to the Agency

all while being mentally unstable

my wife said “why does anyone ever work with her?”

Homeland.


I have thought about starting this series hundreds of time but never have started


Do I want to watch this or not? Looks like a long grind

Homeland will always be special to me. It's one of the craziest archs of any show. It went 8 seasons and after the first 3 it was a different show each season.

I really liked how it would have a bad season and then find its footing again. I thought it ended very well with seasons 7 and 8.


Im a sucker for international spy shows. I will always defend it.

Carrie summed up in a gif. ETA: This was one of the first scenes of the first episode I think.

First 2 minutes of the first episode. Telling us she’s far from perfect.

Yes you do want to watch it.

You won’t want to finish it … there are 8 seasons and I quit about 6ish…

The first half is really good imo. Just got to get around the lip thing.

I like the show during the seasons while she's in the Middle East. Peter, Saul, Max, Astrid, Dar Adal, Tasneem Qureishi, Bunny Latif, Haissam Haqqani, Aasar Khan, even Yevgeny Gromov are interesting characters. They make the the best parts of the show good.

What a piece of shite she is…


Funny timing, my wife and I are watching it for the 1st time and are on season 4 also.
We both hate Carrie at this point, she’s possibly my least favorite major character of any series ever.

7 and 8 were much better than 6 and I love how it ended.

Last episode of Season 8 is every bit as good as anything in the first season. Keep watching. It's a decent watch.

The best line of the entire series is in the first season - possibly the very beginning of the 1st episode.


I’m partial to the line “I suck cock and I love it…yummy yummy yummy”
