Man those crazy Al-Queda SWAT teams able to just roll in and take out a whole team of CIA agents!

Had to crack up at Mike walking into the room and David Estes sitting there waiting for him :lol:

Re: Homeland -- "A Gettysburg Address" -- 11/04/12
 

They really made the vice prez's son a dick just like his father.

Re: Homeland -- "A Gettysburg Address" -- 11/04/12
 

Mike and Crutches are actually quite annoying at this point. I hope they end up on the wrong side of an Al-Queda SWAT team soon.

Speaking of the Al-Queda SWAT team, glad to see Rupert Friend heeded Carrie's advice (even if there was little time to do anything) and managed to (barely) survive.

I can't believe we're only halfway through the season. The way things have been moving, I thought there were only two episodes left rather than six.

Yeah, I don't like this turn for him at all. Oh well. I guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree after all.

Re: Homeland -- "A Gettysburg Address" -- 11/04/12
 

Not my favorite episode but still great TV. Really didn't like how obvious they were about the tailor's place: squad cars, gov. cars, uniformed men all around. Could have been a bit more discrete. But I do wonder if Brody told the reporter anything, signaled her, tipped her off in any way. And I really wonder what was in that big trunk...

Re: Homeland -- "A Gettysburg Address" -- 11/04/12
 

Glad to see they're still able to keep the audience's suspicions of Brody in tact. Very likely that something happened in that hallway scene. Intense shootout at the tailor's place.

Re: Homeland -- "A Gettysburg Address" -- 11/04/12
 

The show continues to deliver. Even though I would call this a "weaker" episode, I still loved every minute of it - a testament to how good it is.

Re: Homeland -- "A Gettysburg Address" -- 11/04/12
 

Regardless of a few nitpicks this year, the show keeps me riveted all 50 minutes every week. I can't think of one episode in the two years that I found myself clock watching during the show.

Re: Homeland -- "A Gettysburg Address" -- 11/04/12
 

I've clock watched a few times but it was over fear that the episode would be over already. I just want each episode to keep going.

Re: Homeland -- "A Gettysburg Address" -- 11/04/12
 

Detective Carver's big promotion didn't last long. :lol:

Re: Homeland -- "A Gettysburg Address" -- 11/04/12
 

This. Ironically this happened to me last night when Carrie and Brody were talking in the room and she hugged him. I was thinking "there's got to be more...!", but unfortunately the screen cut to the credits and they make me wait another week. I'm guessing this is the type of disappointment the producers were looking for...

Do most of you watch the previews? I personally try to avoid them.

Re: Homeland -- "A Gettysburg Address" -- 11/04/12
 

Maybe I'm a sadist but it's weak that the Doogie Howser CIA agent dude didn't die in the shootout. Shows need to be more daring.

Re: Homeland -- "A Gettysburg Address" -- 11/04/12
 

yeah, I didn't expect he would die, I was hoping he ran out the back or something. The typical getting shot and living is kinda weak.

Re: Homeland -- "A Gettysburg Address" -- 11/04/12
 

I always avoid them. Same for other shows I watch like Walking Dead, Boardwalk Empire, Dexter, etc. (Yep, Sunday nights the DVR gets quite the workout)

Re: Homeland -- "A Gettysburg Address" -- 11/04/12
 

i am surprised terrorist SWAT didn't put a few bullets into every body to make sure they were dead. Seems like the Arabic CIA guy got croaked. Shame, he was my pick for the Mole.
I wonder what happens when mike and crutches find out Brody is Muslim?

Re: Homeland -- "A Gettysburg Address" -- 11/04/12
 

I liked that one CIA agent that got killed. I always hoped something would happen between him and Carrie. I don't think Brody was lying to Carrie, seemed like Moya already knew about them at the shop. In fact one guy who survived could be the mole.

Re: Homeland -- "A Gettysburg Address" -- 11/04/12
 

Are we certain there's a mole in the CIA? Or is this just 24 mentality seeping into these threads?

Re: Homeland -- "A Gettysburg Address" -- 11/04/12
 

someone passed Hamid, Brody's guard while he was captured, a razor blade in the interrogation room in season 1.

Re: Homeland -- "A Gettysburg Address" -- 11/04/12
 

More importantly, somebody tipped off the blonde terrorist that Carrie and Galvez were tailing her boyfriend.

Re: Homeland -- "A Gettysburg Address" -- 11/04/12
 

Yeah, they still haven't dealt with that.

Someone also seems to have let slip that the CIA was zeroing in on the Gettysburg tailor, which led to Brody trying to secret him away on the night of his BIG SPEECH.

Re: Homeland -- "A Gettysburg Address" -- 11/04/12
 

not necessarily a mole. They could have had their own tail on the blonde that spotted carrie & galvez, and their own surveillance on the tailor.

Re: Homeland -- "A Gettysburg Address" -- 11/04/12
 

True, but Saul specifically stated last season that he thought that Al Queda had an inside man in the government, but never followed up. Guess the CIA has bigger priorities.

Re: Homeland -- "A Gettysburg Address" -- 11/04/12
 

Bigger priorities than someone revealing and circumventing your plans to the enemy?

Re: Homeland -- "A Gettysburg Address" -- 11/04/12
 

when he told mike to Nod.. it seemed like the it was telling a shooter outside he can hold off on killing him now...

strange shot...

liked where they are taking this.... keeping brody as a potential double agent still...

Re: Homeland -- "A Gettysburg Address" -- 11/04/12
 

Yes, I'm sure the CIA routinely shoots people from outside their offices at Langley. :lol:
