GoT teaser that aired prior to the Boardwalk Empire premiere.

Kind of reminds me of a SPN title opener.

Oh, I hadn't heard anything about Luck, but now I am intrigued.

And that GoT teaser is very SPNish!

Reviews for the new Showtime show Homeland are coming in. Sounds good, and the cast is interesting: Claire Danes, Damian Lewis, Mandy Patinkin, and Morena Baccarin. (One of these things is not like the others... although to be fair Baccarin might have been excellent in V; I never watched it.)

I know - Homeland makes me want to get Showtime.

I just saw an ad for that and realized I might have to watch it (mostly for Damien Lewis).

The status is NOT quo.

What's the premise? Great cast!

I watched the first episode and it IS quite good, but it is uber-bleak. Not sure my Damien love will sustain my desire to watch.

I am impressed with Claire Danes' performance. I never expect much from her.

The direction must be really good too because Mandy Patinkin is almost unidentifiable...no Patinkin-esque at all.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I didn't find it as bleak as you did, bf. But I totally know what you mean. I will tell you this, I think the route they went with Danes' character bugged me, but aside from that, the acting is fucking top notch.

Everyone just brings it.
