After last week’s ho-hum effort, Homeland returns…and Brody’s (Damian Lewis) secret is out!

Let’s survey the wreckage… [Read more…]

Homeland review – 2×03: ‘State of Independence’

October 15, 2012 by Joe Lipsett

Last week Homeland delivered a cliffhanger that most shows would sit on until the season finale. It delivered it in its second episode. So what happens now that Brody’s (Damian Lewis) secret is out of the bag?

Let’s bitch it out… [Read more…]

Homeland review – 2×02: ‘Beirut Is Back’

October 8, 2012 by Joe Lipsett

The second episode of Showtime’s Homeland finds Carrie (Claire Danes) firmly entrenched in the field – and under fire – as Brody (Damian Lewis) navigates some murky moral issues. Naturally, though, it’s the development that ends the episode that will have tongues wagging.

Homeland review – 2×01: ‘The Smile’

October 1, 2012 by Joe Lipsett

Well, well, well. Sunday night is easily the craziest night for high quality television, but the only show I’ve been truly waiting for with bated breath is Showtime’s Homeland. Last year I named it the best show in the first annual Bitch Awards (TVAngie named it second best) and last week the show took home the Emmy for Best Drama. So clearly the show’s sophomore season would never be able to live up to the hype, right?

Wrong.

Well that’s a wrap folks. The first season of Showtime’s brilliant drama, Homeland, has come to its conclusion and we have a lot to talk about. Major SPOILERS coming up.

Let’s break it down… [Read more…]

Homeland recap – 1×11: ‘The Vest’

December 12, 2011 by Joe Lipsett

Courtesy of Showtime

It’s the penultimate episode of Homeland and although the hour is filled with lots of interesting scenes, it still feels a bit like a filler episode because we’re not really any closer to finding out the plan for next week’s big attack. Instead we follow along as the Brody family goes on vacation before the campaign kicks off and address how last week’s explosion affects Carrie’s (Claire Danes) bipolarism.
