Default Homeland? (also an emmy thread in case anyone gives a shit)

Why are they jizzing all over this thing? Is it because it's political in nature? Cause the president likes it? I'd never heard of it before tonight.


Christina deserved a win for that fucked up Jaguar episode. That gave me nightmares. Although I guess nobody can beat Maggie Smith

Mad Men apparently is not cool anymore. What's up with THREE writing nominations and not a single win? Isn't that, like really improbable, like mathematically?

This made me happy

Thought for sure Breaking Bad would get best drama this year. It's also kind of confusing cause Cranston's performance was better in season 4 than any of the previous ones. Guess he's made his point. The off year may also be a factor.



Who really fuckin cares though, right?

the problem i had with homeland is, here's a guy who's been gone nearly a decade, presumed dead, and he returns to a household more or less intact? they were just like 'okay dad's back lol lets move on'... to be fair the situation becomes a trainwreck later but it seemed kind of hokey and i never finished season 1. its decent if you have nothing else to watch

Homeland is excellent, and while I'm still a Mad Men fanboy, I thought Homeland was the second best thing on TV last year (yes, better than Breaking Bad).

That said, I cannot see how the second season could be anywhere near as good as the first one.

It took 4-5 episodes to really get fantastic. Also, I don't recall at all the "hey let's just move on" attitude from anyone other than the wife and that was clearly an attempt to cover up her SPOILERY SPOILERS.

i'm actually really REALLY shocked that the best supporting drama actor didn't go to jared harris or giancarlo esposito. aaron paul is absolutely delightful, though.

really wanted lena dunham for writing and comedy actress.

also,

amy poehler should definitely host the awards!
