    Wife and I finished watching the first 2 seasons of this. We’ve enjoyed it. It’s pretty well done but does go well into unrealistic territory on occasion. Still it has enough unexpected surprises to keep things interesting.

    Looking forward to seeing what season 3 holds in store.

    UCC at the start of the trailer had me worried, but turned out to be a good trailer. Can't wait.

    I'm guessing she's still doing the electroshock therapy. Looks like she keeps a notebook with stuff written down about Brody to help remind her of him. Interesting to see the daughter convert into a Muslim. I'm thinking season 3 will be a massive man hunt to find Brody and any moles in the CIA. I can't wait for this season to start.

    I loved the first half of season 2 but then it faltered down the stretch.

    2nd season was utterly ridiculous at times. Hopefully they rebound. Loved Season 1, but Season 2 kind of lost me.

    My wife and I started watching this a couple of weeks ago, and we have two or three episodes before we're all caught up. My thoughts: Carrie is weak, and the definition of the "flawed hero." She reminds me of Olivia Pope from Scandal. I like Mike, and he drives a cool car.

    I'm looking forward to finishing the 2nd season and catching the season premier next week. Between Breaking Bad, Boardwalk, Sunday Night Football, and now this... I'm truly experiencing the genius that is the DVR.

    I havent read good things from critics i respect about the quality of this upcoming season. I wasnt a big fan of season 2 anyways but, I'll go into this season with low expectation.

    I enjoyed the first episode. It was more grounded in reality than any of Season 2's episodes, which is a big plus. Loved the court hearing scenes with Carrie and Saul.

    Dana is still pointless though, they keep recasting her brother for some reason, and I still have a bad taste from Season 2.

    Solid first episode though.

    I'm so ambivalent about this season that I came to this thread without caring if it was spoiled just so I could see some reactions.

    Judging by them, I think I may throw in the towel. It's weird, because I thought the Season 2 finale was good, yet I still am not looking forward to it.

    BrBa may have done this to me.

    It was OK. Enough for me to watch episode 2 on DVR.

    it's the same boy he just went through puberty. Remember when Walt from LOST came back as a Full Back?

    You can tell they had no plan for this show past the first season. Season 2 could have been 2 full seasons but they blew there load after just a couple episodes. Did we ever find out who the mole was from season 1 and 2?
