First of all, shout out to Two Cups for putting in the work. He really took one for the team.

I still think the mole may be the helicopter pilot chick.

Probably an unpopular opinion here, but I think Kyle McManus is a bad guy. He's on our team, sure, and he's knocking down bad guys, yeah, but there's no due process and he has no oversight. He's executing people and sending people off to get tortured at Gitmo. Rooting for him feels like rooting for the SS.
Him saying shite like, "We're going to feed you three times a week. We'll give you Dengue fever.We'll keep you naked in your cell and blare Metallica at 110 decibels 24 hours a day." Is this what we're cheering for now?
Are we ok with, "The enemy does this to us. They have no rules or guardrails, so why should we? We are at war, whether anyone admits it or not."
Joe herself strays into the grey area where "the ends justify the means".

I'm a bit pissed at the whole flashback story arc thing he did this season. He kidnapped Joe, and is teasing her rescue to the end, while taking all season to fill in the middle. It better be a budget busting gunfight for a rescue.

Do the lesbian scenes have a point other than being gratituous?


You not familiar with TS style? He loves this kind of shite

The flashback plot isn't doing much for me. Really wish we could just get to the present story.

Agree about the flashback. I’m enjoying the sequence for the most part but a lot of time I’m trying to figure if we are in a flashback or present day.

Overall, I enjoy this series. Not a big fan of the split timeline thing in the 3rd season so far though.

I'm sorry for your loss. I appreciate your need for vengeance and justice. I'd feel the same way.

I believe everyone deserves due process. Unfortunately, you and I live in the real world and know there's no process that exists that works in this situation.

Ideally, there would be a court. Its actions would be swift and just. The captured Russian spies would be given a lawyer of their choosing and have the chance to prove their innocence or refute the evidence gathered by the CIA, or the joint response group. If they are found innocent, sent home immediately and permanently barred from the US and her terrritories. If guilty, they are given the option to surrender information and get a lifetime in prison, or hanged immediately. Not torture. Our enemies torture. Bad guys torture. Bad guys have no due process.

But, I get it. We don't have a functional system. There's no Nuremburg trials for our current landscape. Kyle's way is logical. But it isn't how we should do things.

I guess him executing the surrendered Russian soldier in the Ukranian raid really pissed me off. We aren't better than the bad guys if we do bad guy shite.

I just wrapped season 1 and am starting season 2. Both my wife and I enjoy this one. One thing that does seem forced to me is the amount of profanity that Morgan Freeman spews. I am no prude at all, but it seems like they wrote the character for Samuel Jackson and then pivoted to Freeman. It just doesnt sound natural coming out of his mouth ha.

Despite the lack of scissoring in these last couple episodes, I’m really enjoying this deep dive into the pyramid of useful idiots at American corporations, universities, and media outlets

If you’re not watching this show, you should

Problem is this and other Sheridan shows do not appeal to the people who would need to watch it. He is doing great with the politics and foreign influence on this one. However, Landman he is just preaching to the choir.

Is the scene where they talk about leveraging compromised assets within the government into resigning in lieu of getting popped with indictments longer than Santa's list in this season?

Surely they picked up on everyone leaving that house, right? They put satellites on it, or are we to assume that they turned the satellite surveillance off of the house as soon as the team moved on?
