New show on Starz, about a Marine Sgt (Damian Lewis who is an awesome actor) who is found after 8 years of captivity in Afghanistan.

Also, Inara from Firefly is in it and FDT in the first 5 minutes.

Good show so far, anyone else watch the first episode.

Filmed in Charlotte!

9/16/2011 5:33:35 PM

Knew nothing about this. Like Morenna Baccarin, Mandy Patinkin and the dude from Life, so checking it out now.

9/16/2011 6:10:05 PM

First episode was very interesting. Probably will continue to watch.

9/16/2011 9:50:38 PM

Could be the best new show of the fall. Also I'm
pretty sure this is on showtime not starz,

9/17/2011 12:41:53 AM

^correct

9/17/2011 8:27:19 AM

haha oops.

9/17/2011 8:28:05 AM

this show has a Rubicon feel to it, but it looks like it'll be more entertaining

9/19/2011 2:40:52 PM

I didn't love the pilot but it seemed like it could be pretty good going forward. I can already tell the Damian Lewis/Morena Baccarin love triangle is going to bug the shit out of me.

9/19/2011 3:16:49 PM

into the first episode, although i don't like that they just give away that he really has been turned. i guess the climax of the show would never be that as it turns out she was wrong the whole time, but they could've run w/ it a little bit.

9/26/2011 2:00:02 PM

I guess this leaked a couple months ago? Just watched episode 1 and I'll be following up for sure.

10/4/2011 11:01:33 AM

^Showtime was streaming the pilot online for like the past month

^^They made it clear the terrorists think they've turned him, but whether he's actually going to go through with anything is pretty ambiguous at this point.

10/4/2011 1:46:13 PM

will check this out tonight

10/4/2011 3:00:12 PM

Thought it was entertaining and will probably keep watching it.

that's way way less interesting though. what's the climax going to be? claire danes confronting him and him being like "no LOL i'm just tricking them."?


*spoiler*




i'll be honest though, once they showed him killing that guy, i didn't even consider that he wasn't serious about it.

10/4/2011 9:50:32 PM

This shit is absolutely wild. Instantly hooked.

10/4/2011 10:17:26 PM

i think its going to be a really crazy show. the previews for the rest of the season look wild.

is brody's wife the chick that played anna on V? regardless, nice tits. cant wait to see how that shit plays out between her, brody and mike

10/4/2011 11:10:58 PM

yes, that's her

10/4/2011 11:19:21 PM

^^ And Inara from Firefly. My Firefly Rule is what started me watching this show.

I don't think it's really clear that the terrorists think they turned him. What IS clear is that they probably "broke" him.

10/5/2011 7:33:05 AM

oh yeah i need to watch it on showtime to see the tits. thanks for reminding me.

10/5/2011 11:39:39 AM

shieeeeeet

10/5/2011 11:52:58 AM

Her hair is going through that bad growth stage after V got canceled.

10/5/2011 12:31:42 PM

Filming this forever in Charlotte. Good friend is the locations manager for it. They just had the premier at the Bechtler.

10/5/2011 1:16:25 PM

was there speculation they would stop filming in Charlotte or something

10/5/2011 1:45:40 PM

I think so yeah. Based upon how well the pilot/1st season did. Haven't heard anything other than that though. Be cool if they continued to shoot here.

10/5/2011 1:47:19 PM

this show is awesome. can't wait for the rest of the season

10/8/2011 4:08:04 PM

Haha the only scene that you can tell it's Charlotte is when they're filming in Freedom park and there's some snow on the ground from last winter.

"NEW FAVORITE SHOW "

10/8/2011 11:39:26 PM

Bump for tonight. Goddamn I have a full-on high school crush on Claire Danes.

10/9/2011 8:53:55 PM

another awesome episode. really curious as to how they can keep this show going for more than one season though.

10/10/2011 8:52:00 PM

same here

but, overall, love it and hope they can figure it out. i wonder is daines will get naked this season. very curious about how things continue with mike. kinda wish they wouldnt have introduced the new girl working under her yet

10/10/2011 10:42:04 PM

where's the trouble conceiving of new seasons? just new main terrorists, this time its the guy that hasnt been seen in 7 years. mike is part of that storyline not the other way around.

10/10/2011 11:12:13 PM

I, too, have become a big fan of this show.

10/11/2011 1:40:42 AM

Yea we watched Episode 2 last night and really like it as well. One of my favorite new shows this season.

10/11/2011 7:20:25 AM

high level of nudity, high level of awsomeness

10/17/2011 11:53:37 PM

^Yep, no complaints here.

10/18/2011 6:32:58 AM

the...uh...intimate scenes between Brody and his wife make me cringe...but oddly that only adds to the awesome-ness of this show

10/18/2011 7:21:28 AM

i love the plot here, but the writing is so bad. sometimes a show knows how to slyly tell you what's going on w/o just spelling it out, and sometimes a show turns out like homeland.

10/18/2011 8:26:36 AM

^this is from the producers of 24 and it airs on Showtime...subtlety was never in the cards for this show.

10/18/2011 12:31:14 PM

but the plot is so cool!

10/18/2011 3:30:27 PM

that sex scene in last nights episode was really crazy

i really love this show. i will agree with Simon about the writing and it could be better but the show is really awesome.

so sad the hot blond got axed ... she didnt last long.

10/18/2011 3:59:10 PM

awesome episode. ready for some more evidence to be found against brody though. they need to put a camera in the garage damnit!!

10/19/2011 10:35:45 PM

just watched episode 1 about to watch the next

pretty good show

I don't mind things being spelled out in this case.

I've had enough mystery and subtext-heavy shows for a bit.

We know the dude's a terrorist, now how are we gonna get 'im.

10/24/2011 2:44:28 AM

definitely didn't expect that interaction at the end

half-expected her to just watch through the door the whole meeting

10/24/2011 1:11:30 PM

Yeah I didn't see that coming either. He seemed to be really into her as well.

10/24/2011 4:58:12 PM

Showtime OnDemand has episodes 1, 2 and 4 up
