I really enjoyed the first series and thought the final episode was massively tense, but only because I had no idea they'd planned a second series. This should have ended after one series. I'll probably watch the first few episodes of the second to see what's happening but I already feel myself losing interest because I now know they have no real end planned in sight, even if they say they do. This story needed a conclusion, not to be dragged out to ridiculous levels just because they've got some good characters, actors and a slick production. All of those things are completely undermined when the story loses all sense of itself.

Yup. I don't see this as being something that can drag on for more than 4 seasons and still hold my interest or to even make sense from a storytelling pov. America better blow up or not by then, get on with it.

I say that, but this week's episode with
SPOILER: show
the scene where Carrie watches Brody's video (I imagine that would be my reaction if I saw a video of the actual Seth82)
was a pretty great moment in the series. So maybe the show might have some legs after all.

I'm watching every week until I decide "okay, enough is enough" basically. And I can see myself saying that when/if there is a season 4.
