    Anyone besides me watching it? I am not normally a Claire Danes fan,but she is very good in this show!! Excellently written in my opinion so far,and is very addictive even after only a few episodes. Just got done watching it,and Dexter yet I didn't really watch any of the Patriots game against Bid D today. I wouldn't miss either show this fall as I love them both so far. If you are not watching Homeland you should be. I am sure you tech guys can find it on the web but I am old fashioned and get it through my TV still. I might be the only one left.

    Been watching it too. Well I say I've been watching it, I watched the first one and then am recording several episodes to watch at the same time.

    I like to get about 3 shows and then make an evening of it. Many of the series are better that way.

    Showtime = I wont be watching...I already drop a c-note plus a bunch on cable/int3rwebz zomfgsuperbundle...Im not paying more for just a single show. If I were gonna pay more to watch a cable tv show, Id be watching Boardwalk Empire.

    All that said, Ive heard good things, and maybe will watch when it hits netflix/BB online.

    I'm usually dozing off while the land lady is watching it. The few times I've looked up I saw boobs, sex and a lady who skipped a shower before work and instead just reached down and swabbed the deck. And that was on the tv show. I just did not need that image in my head.

    Yeah, the cable channels definitely have full boobs (not gratuitous, only when absolutely called for).

    Starz has a new series about to start too.

    Sorry about that. The series is about an Marine who was a POW in Afghanistan. He was found 8 years later,and rescued. Now he is back home,and Claire Danes character is on his ass because when she spent time in the middle east she was told by an informant that there is an American POW that has bee turned. She thinks it is him,and so far it looks to be true. She has him under semi-illegal surveillance and is building a case against him. So far there is lots of signs that he is indeed a terrorist in disguise,but who really knows.

    I think it is an American adaptation of an Israeli show,but I could be wrong. Definitely a psychological thriller of a high order.Oh yeah and a fair amount of boobs,and the aforementioned whores bath.
