    Love that Jess' inspiration for feminism was "Elizabeth," the movie.

    Ryan has an incestuous relationship with his dyslexic sister. Brother-sister kinkiness have been mad trending on TV over the last few years.

    Catfight!!!!!!!!!

    Fun trivia: that was Urdu text, because Urdu also uses the Arabic alphabet.

    Khan and Carrie definitely had more chemistry than Carrie and Quinn! I dunno what it is about the C&Q duo. They just do not, as you so eloquently put it, make one's "nuts tingle."

    There was no way they were going to kill Saul. "Homeland" is on Showtime, the channel that overstayed Brody's welcome by two seasons, brought back Jimmy/Steve/now Jack? from an inevitable death on "Shameless," and never killed off Dexter. Whaaattt?

    As they were tagging the Taliban men, my geeky science mind thought they looked like cancer cells proliferating and infiltrating a human organ system, in this case, the little Afghanistan town—quite a bone-chilling effect!

    Quote: "I thought Quinn was going to make a move on Carrie after she poured her heart out and started to have doubts about the mission: “Nothing good can happen in this fucked-up world that we’ve made for ourselves.”"

    "Nice bachelor pad, Colonel! On a Pakistani Army salary?"

    Yaawwnnn

    Okay that's ridiculous. Obviously I don't want a fanboy. But considering my dislike for a show like, "Big Bang Theory," if I had to watch and review it week after week, I can safely say it would never have a shot. I would always find something wrong with it.

    You hit the nail on the head: I think the reviewer just does not like the show, plain and simple. While I have no problems with a reviewer disliking a show, I think it only fair to us fans that the reviewer be someone who will at least appreciate it with us every week.

    You bring up a great point: A woman who is self-respecting and confident can also be laid back and chill—that's what makes a woman complex! We as viewers should demand such complicated characters (male and female) who can't be thrown into a simple category.

    You absolutely voiced all my issues about the criticism of this show. There are so many more outlandish story lines that critics let slide for other shows! That a romance novelist likes to go to raves instead of brunch, is the objection? Wow. It's as if the reviewer was asking for a stereotype. Aren't critics suppose

    I understand that Alison seemed like the anti-Peter, especially with her being a romance novelist, but the unexpected turn was the beauty of her character. Liking brunch and mani-pedis on Sunday would have made her fit into a predictable stereotype. But despite her chosen girly profession, she had completely

    Nice reference.

    That fist bumping of the drone was brilliant and depressing all at once.

    A-dorable!

    I thought the men capturing Carrie as bait for Aayan was predictable. It still didn't make it any less fun to watch. And agreed, Aayan's fast demise wasn't expected. They spent so much time developing him, that when he died, we the audience had the same gut wrenching feeling as Carrie: what a waste of time and effort.

    Sure, the plot was predictable, but it was about Carrie's struggle with her new moral code. Quinn and Fara were constantly judging her for her cold-hearted killer instinct, but she wanted to prove that the path she has taken was necessary in order to get the job done: If Haqqani could be so dedicated to a cause that
