I don't remember the opening credits being bad, but I can't really remember what they looked like. Guess I'll have to pay attention next week.

The interview questions for the girl sounded like a typical Howard Stern interview: "Have you ever been with a celebrity? Do you do anal?"

I'm really liking this show. A lot.

What's her situation with Virgil? Is he another one she seduced at some point? Or just a close friend that is okay with her shit-ons?

I guess he's a close friend. He did say he's retired from the agency.

(Granted, Brunei is in Southeast Asia and not the Middle East, but this stuff does seem to happen.)

Do you do anal? Would you be willing to have sex with another woman? Have you ever dated anyone famous? Hair down there isn't an option...

Is she going to be hired by a Saudi prince or Howard Stern?

Just caught up on both episodes. This show is great.

My guess is that Brody hasn't turned but instead sympathized with his captors and realized that the war was wrong. So while not a terrorist, he is Muslim and understands the enemy.

And isn't it a guarantee that the informant will get killed? After 7 seasons of 24 I just can't see it ending another way.
