[jodie]

^sis penge naman link
i'm also watching this series, every monday inaabangan ko talaga na magkaron na sa torrent hehe
dun sa last episode, sino yung nakaharap ni brody sa last scene? si nazir ba yun?

[sima]

Kung ako si Carrie, namatay na ako sa hiya kasi napakinggan ng buong monitoring staff ng CIA Brody case yung lovemaking session nila ni Brody sa hotel.  Buti na lang at walang video at audio link lang LOL!  Ang awkward lang.

[heavensent]

hays, naiinis ako kay Carrie most of the time pero grabe galing ni Claire Danes..

Yup si Abu Nazir na nga iyon and he called him by his first name -- Nicholas!

I used to love Homeland because it was different from other TV shows because of its exciting, serious plot but the show's second season is losing its juice.

[simplykristine08]

wth happened to the season 2 finale?? hayyy! ngayon eh naiisip ko tuloy if brody is still part of the terrorist. mukhang hindi naman, sana hindi naman. i hope talagang nagbago na sya pero hindi mo talaga alam. i'm not sure if saul will help carrie clear brody's name. so, there's a much more bigger terrorist pa bukod kay abu nazir which is expected. kasi kung wala na, tapos na din ang homeland.

[reeya]

I love this show. Buti may thread na. I dont know what happend sa last episode pero parang may bagong terrorist.

[simplykristine08]

^ yes sis, merong bagong terrorist. i think eto yung mga kasama ni abu nazir. and, inako nila ang bombing. kasi bianggit ni brody diba na it's bigger that nazir. na parang he will die a thousand times para mafulfill ang kanilang goal talaga. and he also said na si walden eh hindi natatapos sakanya, CIA ang talagang target nila kasi sila ang nagssuggest ata kung ano ang dapat gawin sa mga terrorist dba. that's how i understand it ha.

I have a feeling Brody is still part of the terrorist cell.  He was holding his SUV car keys in his right hand when he alighted from his vehicle, when he slipped on his jacket and when he went up to the stairs and handed over the keys to a man in military uniform through a handshake.  Brody, although may feelings kay Carrie, is also stringing her along for the ride.

Why didn't Quinn kill Brody when he had a very clear shot of him in the lake?  How did he know and how can he say that Brody is a good man?

Carrie is so hook on him.  The way Brody was to Nazir.  I am starting to lean on the Nussbaum theory.

I was moved by the phone call Saul's estranged wife made.  But I am equally baffled on why she also asked about Carrie.  Hmmmm, I was wondering if they was something before between Saul and Carrie.

Nakakapangilabot yung part na nagdasal si Saul ng Kaddish prayer (Jewish prayer) for those who perished in the bombing.  Saul is really the moral center of the series.  And I don't think he is the mole.

It must have been heart breaking for Dana to have her faith in her father shattered by the video he made for the bombing that did not carry out.  Sa family kasi nila, parang si Dana lang ang nakakaintindi sa kanya.  Up to the last moment, she believed her father until she saw the video (which we all know was not for that incident).

Kahit na maraming implausible events itong series na ito (like bakit hinayaan nilang may magpark ng car sa harap ng memorial building kahit pa sabihing top ranking yung official na nagutos noon, how did Nazir enter the country, etc), I will keep on watching.

[simplykristine08]

^ ako naman, confused talaga kung si brody ba ay part of the terrorist pa rin or not. mahirap, pero eto ang maganda, kaabang abang talaga.

i think, sa part ni quinn, parang nakita nya talagang mahal ni carrie at si brody ang nagbabalance kay carrie. and like what he said, ginawa naman ni brody yung part nya dun sa deal nila diba, so baka yun na rin yun. ang magbebenefit nalang kasi pag pinatay si brody eh si estes talaga.

diba nabanggit ni brody na all along, ang target talaga is yung CIA. so there's a bigger terrorist pa kay abu nazir. kaloka to.

I really, really love this show. Very intelligently done. The writing is superb, very clean and flawless.

[simplykristine08]

Ang tagal pa ng hihintayin natin for season 3!!

[dolcevitabebe]

Homeland did an awesome job sa Golden Globes

Though I have to agree may WTF moment sa Season 2 na compared sa Season 1 talagang you're always at the edge of the seat and wanting for more kasi nga iba sya compared to other shows.

Matagal tagal na hintayan pa to for Season 3. Hanap hanap muna ng ibang makalolokohan

[sima]

Simula na ng Season 3 - WOOHOO!  Well for me at least.  I got hold of the leaked version hehe.

May time jump kainis!  But I think we viewers will be updated with flashbacks in the coming episodes.

Bagay kay Carrie ang mahabang buhok.  She looks fresh despite the odds she faced in the premiere episode - congressional hearing, front page scandal, Saul on live TV, her apparent guilt on the CIA bombing!  My gosh, kung hindi ba naman mag-kick-in ang kanyang disorder sa nangyayari sa kanya ngayon....  Natutuwa ako sa papa niya.  Ang bait!  And to think pareho silang bipolar.

Mas gusto ko ang aura ni Dana ngayon although parang mas naging wild siya.  Ang laki na ng kapatid niyang lalaki.  Brody is no-show this episode and nobody (?) knows where he is.  Ang ganda ng asawa ni Brody sa episode na ito.  Saul as CIA head is taking its toll on him.
