I’d been planning on checking the series out, but when I heard about what they were doing with the new season I quickly changed my mind.
...on it’s way to the dust bin.....ratings take beating
Driving a stake through the heart of their own golden goose
Yeah, I know I’m mixing metaphors, but I’m on a roll.
Nearly every mass media creator of any kind is leftist.
Their work eventually mirrors their political positions.
The far left..."the enemy of my enemy is my friend"
How else CAN you portray radical Islamic terrorists?
Won’t be watching it any more. They chose storyline to celebrate a Hillary victory in 2016 election.
Instead of watching TV I listen to the radio, get more exercise and read. Can’t say it’s a bad thing.
Stuff coming out of Hollyweird has been so bad lately.
Yes, the first couple of seasons were absolutely outstanding, but it may be going downhill fast.
The acting is still superb, and their portrayal of our intelligence agencies has always been somewhat ambivalent at best, but there’s no question this season so far has taken a clear, virulent anti-American turn. And they obviously expected Hillary to win during the filming like almost all the rest of the “experts” did.
Danes’ acting this year is just soooo overdramtic and strident and Quinn’s disability is gut-reaching. Enough already. The female President is pathetic and who knows what side Saul and what’s-his-name are on. Lousy writing and plot line. Not worth recording much less watching. A real waste of vcr space.
I loved seasons 1 and 2, then it lost its punch, imho. Perhaps different writers, Damien Lewis left, etc.
Season 1 was considered the best first season of any series ever. I got DVDs from my library and binge watched.
I’ll never watch it.
I saw this coming last season. I’m not watching anymore. This will probably its last season.
My husband and I are very disappointed in the first two episodes.
Another loser for Faux!
RATINGS FAIL.
I’m done, the first three episodes this season sucked.
Yes I agree with you. Season 1 and 2 were excellent. Then there was season 3 and I could only watch a few episodes before giving up on it. Haven’t watched it since.
Boycott Hollywood. Nuke the site from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.
Same here. I have fallen asleep within the first 10 minutes of every episode this year.
