In the opener of this "Manchurian Candidate"-like political thriller, a marine (Damian Lewis) rescued after eight years as a POW in Afghanistan returns home a war hero. But a CIA operative (Claire Danes) suspects he may actually be an enemy agent with a connection to Al Qaeda and part of a plan to commit a terrorist act on U.S. soil.

Slow build, but great finish.
Zaczyna się bardzo ciekawie.
Loved it. Best pilot I've seen in ages, although I'm admittedly late to the party..
Shouldn't Brody be much skinnier since he has been in captivity for years? Or am I the only one wondering that?
Bit of a late comment here. I was looking through all of Homelands episodes comments.
@kakature 4:25 was "hygiene in a rush". 9:38 was Morena Bacarrin specifically.
Pretty good pilot. Nice women, good music. The handsignal-thing is a bit farfetched imo.
@Retriev3r @oranges Nothing special happening at 04.25 here. She's putting her ring away or something.
And 9.38 is the sex scene. Have you guys never seen a sex scene on tv? ...
Fantastic pilot. Should be a great serial.
@Retriev3r @oranges
Finished the pilot, it was great.
One thing to add though, I knew you two pervs were up to something when you agreed on something happening. :)
The pilot was definitely good. It should be a quick pickup.
@Retriev3r @oranges
You two and your 04:25 temptation. Nice try. You aren't roping me into new shows, yet. I fell behind my usual pace this Summer and I'm blaming this site. I usually don't add much as the Summer goes on, but I have been loading up.
I may check it out, tonight. This 04:25 crap has me curious. This would be breaking my usual rule of limiting new show viewing, but... I think it gets picked up anyway. Showtime hasn't been that great lately, so if you guys say it is good, then it is probably getting picked up. They like to pick their shows up after a couple of episodes, anyway.
Thanks for the heads up.
I liked it.
@Retriev3r
I thought the same about 04:25 :P
I think 09:38 is new to TV as well.
