- Maureen Ryan interview: Homeland Season 3: Producer Talks Brody, Carrie, Mental Illness And The Reasons For Reinvention

 

[Kaisersalsek]

When the freakin hell is s3 coming on in the uk? Feels like forever since s2 was on

 

[RS4-]

Watch out, lots of spoilers going around for the premiere.

 

[Tucah]

Yeah, first episode leaked so there will probably be spoilers all around.

 

[Fry]

Please post impressions.
I won't watch.

 

[UrbanRats]

I didn't thought Homeland's second season was THAT bad, but yes it was pretty bad, especially considering the first one won

Spoiler

stole

both an Emmy and a Golden Globe.
Anyway, the setting for the third season left me completely, utterly disappointed. Also the fact that I read a writer's interview in which he said "It's not a show about America, it's a love story.". Fuck you, that's a cop out, pure and simple. They obviously realized they weren't capable of dealing with such themes so they simply came out with "Oh guys, you didn't notice? The point of the show is finding out if Carrie and Brody will ever stay together!!! That's the only important dilemma!!!".
Now I read of this "In the first draft Carrie went with him" shit, are you joking? My God.
Basically I'm watching this show for Mandy Patinkin and that's it.
The sad part is that this is Showtime. The show will never end. At least seven seasons confirmed.

This is why i won't follow season 3.
This show is never getting good again, it's that simple.

Leaked first episode isn't completed i.e. it's missing VFX and some unfinished Audio.

Ehhhh it's very middling... Need to see where it's all heading.

 

[robertsan21]

Yeah focusing on brody and claire to get back is stupid, the show should be about dealing with terrorists etc, that what makes this show so fucking great.

Going to be a good first episode.

saw the leak

and it was good

Honestly, the premiere was good. Not great, but definitely the focus was back on not just the CIA but the backroom politicking, and it really did feel like a return to S1 without all the Brody bullshit. It's a shame he's not dead for good, because that would have really given this show an injection of life.

Minus Zach from Dexter. holy shit I hate that kid so much.

Long profile on Claire Danes in this week's The New Yorker:

- Varieties of Disturbance: Where do Claire Danes’s volcanic performances come from?

Looks like there might be some spoilers from S3.

 

[Immortal Technique]

It's a really good article. A few spoilers from episode 1, two of them are whatever.. but one of them pretty significant.

Yeah, it was a good read. The Mandy Patinkin profile that the NY Times Magazine did last week is worth a look, too.

I watched the first season and found it to be gripping and very entertaining. Then...the last 20 minutes of the finale came and my brain simply couldn't process it.

Show would have been much better if he had succeeded in his mission and then moved on to a new story line the second season. At this point, I'm writing the show off, the first several episodes of the second season were just too ridiculous and the plot is getting completely crazy.

HA! This was exactly what I was thinking while reading that last post...

 

[Formosa]

Can't wait for Season 3!!! Season 1 was better than season 2, but I got faith for season 3.

VFX - BOMB CRATER

Mhh... must be the release group.

*20 minutes later after some odd audio cut in*

Oh. Noooow I get it.

I thought Zach was pretty funny.

"Saul has amazing stuff this season, and up until this point, he’s only been presented as utterly sympathetic and kind, and we see a much more complex portrait of him here. That’s great, because he’s such a rich character."

Hello.

Lengthy Mandy Patinkin profile in The New York Times this week:

Bit late on reading this, but it's really a great, worthwhile read.

This probably means he falls in love with Brodie too.

 

[foxtrot3d]

Just watched the leaked premiere and I liked it, then again I'm one of those people that wasn't bothered by Season 2 I was thoroughly entertained by it. I just wonder what they are going to do next, the one thing I hated about S2 was the ending it just felt like an unnecessary contrivance that keeps Brody around somewhere. The show shouldn't be about Brody and Carrie, I think we need to drop Brodie and his family altogether and get back to what we really care about the CIA and crazy ass Carrie and her theories.
