Glad they didn't split that episode into 3 different ones and pull a dbz or something.

great episode!

Right when Carrie got out of the van, disobeying orders yet again, I wondered how they can continue to employ such a loose canon like her.

Did you ever watch 24? What do you think about Kim Bauer (basically all seasons) or even Palmer's son in season 1?

My palms were sweating the whole episode

Just marathoned through this season the last 2 days, very impressed in comparison to last season. A lot more tension / excitement throughout. Definitely have been some "Holy shit!" moments, especially when it came to shock factor stuff (IE: bottle to neck).

Dat last episode doe, stoked for the finale.

I vaguely remember the first and second season of 24 with Elisha Cuthbert. Difference being, a lot of stuff that happened was unrealistic, so I never got sucked in as much as Homeland. Plus Elisha Cuthbert is a thousand times more attractive than Dana.

Palmer's son, lol, he's a dumbass. I remember even less about him, but i'm pretty sure he made some stupid decisions too. Not Dana-level stupid though.

wow at the last episode, how the fuck is he getting out of there hahah

SkinnyPupp 12-14-2013 12:43 AM

So the series is over now? Finale was pretty boring after the halfway point

m3thods 12-14-2013 09:57 AM

^ I didn't know Asia got first run (given the time difference). I would've thought that it would show in NA first regardless of the time difference, then trickle down to other markets.

Finale ep has been released early online : )

I get all my TV online, otherwise yeah I would be 1-2 years behind on every show :fuckthatshit:

Just saw it, no spoilers, but I'm not too happy about it :(

SkinnyPupp 12-14-2013 09:49 PM

Now that more people have seen it I'll come out and say it. That finale SUCKED.

Slifer 12-15-2013 07:34 AM

Hmm, looks like there is a season 4?

sloansabbith 12-16-2013 12:52 AM

I was a huge fan of Homeland up until this season. While Carrie has been beyond annoying with her face...those eyes...I have this incessant need to see the story through haha. I must know what happens!

The past few episodes have picked up the pace but even then, the wait time between seasons only ups the ante. I expect BETTER from the time of the previous finale to the new season's premier.

Does anyone here watch Sons of Anarchy? I feel like this season has gone downhill as well..... no spoilers: but what the hell are they going to do now?!

m3thods 12-16-2013 10:09 AM

^ There's a SOA discussion thread. Lots of that type of question being asked there. It's been going downhill since s4/5.

Personally I thought this season was an improvement over S2. Pretty much until the last 2/3 episodes of S2, I was up and ready to drop the show from my rotation. As for Carrie this season, I thought it more funny than annoying seeing her full-blown manic again. You have to remember that she's bipolar who ISN'T on her meds because of her current family-planning situation. Dana is not officially diagnosed with anything (except maybe stupidity), so her character is right up there with Elisha Cuthbert on 24 in terms of the " "TV Characters that Drive You Nuts" hall of fame.

I haven't seen the finale yet (didn't know it was released early). I suppose I'll lower my expectations, which were quite high after last week's episode.

SkinnyPupp 12-16-2013 04:31 PM

Turns out there are going to be 2 more seasons... In that case, I'm not quite as mad about the finale.. It was a horrible finale (after Brody got hanged) but it would have been a MUCH worse series finale than a season finale

oh good to know about the SOA thread!!

You're right, it is hilarious that she's sooo crazy. But her face quivering is a little annoying. I guess it's scary too. The fact that she really embodies the 'crazy' to the point where I actually believe Carrie is really like this in real life.

I just watched the finale. No spoilers, but I could barely breathe. So good luck. I feel at peace knowing there is at least a season 4 in the future haha!

Plot twist,... body double?

If he came out wearing the mask, I would totally think so

I watched the finale and meh, it was OK. I wasn't aware it was the season finale until it was over. So I'm to assume that the Brody chapter is now concluded? Kinda weird since the show was developed around him in a way. With his wife and kids and whatnot. Wonder if they will play a role in the next season(s).

m3thods 12-17-2013 10:48 AM

If this means less screen time for Ms. Brody, I quit this show. Not even a boob shown this season :(

It was reported before the S3 finale that Ms. Brody and Dana are no longer on the 'main cast' but as 'guest appearances' in Season 4.

+1 on the lack of boobies, though. Bait and switch since the first episode!!!

m3thods 12-17-2013 12:09 PM

God damnit.

And totally on that bait and switch. I'm going to believe that behind the scenes, she said no to boobs. And now she's paying for it with guest appearances :ilied:


Edit: Finally got around to watching the finale. It wasn't THAT bad. If the series really is 4 seasons, it's a good place to start wrapping shit up for next season.
