I agree that the excitement of series one was mainly due to the 'is he?/isn't he?' question, hanging over most of the series.

However, now I have to keep watching, just to find out what happens next.

Claire Danes is excellent.


Can't compare it to 'Lost' or 'Prison Break' as I didn't watch either, so not sure what you mean Maxxi.

I watched them in the very early stages before seeing what was happening - and what is happening in Homeland.


The tv co. realises it has a good idea and decides to spin it out as long as it can, over as many series as it can, without ultimately resolving anything until it dies on its arse - then resolutions all round and a get-out clause in the final plot-line to allow for resurrection and/spin-offs.


I may be wrong and that rumours of D Lewis siging a five-year contract to keep playing Brody and that season 3 is being developed atm are just rumours but it looks like it's settling in for the long run.

I'm going from really liking Homeland to finding it tiresome and back again. Although I do like Claire Danes, her "I have mental health issues so I'm going to roll my eyes a lot" schtick is rather wearing.


The Killing was fantastic, as was The Bridge. I LOVED Damages season 1 & 3 and we are still very into The Good Wife.

I'm pretty much with edcam, so dar a bit ambivalent about this new series.

Series 1 was excellent though.


I'm obviosuly alone to being rather partial to Hunted. It has inherited Spooks' penchant for galaxy sized plot holes, but also its sense of fun.

Plus I've been rather partial to Melissa "Angel" George since my waking up for Neighbours and Home and Away student days.

    • I know the couple you mean, and she has always been friendly and smiley when delivering to me, but obviously in a hurry, for all the reasons outlined in the thread. My gate is always open, however (unless someone coming to the house closes it when they leave). I can't see the point of gates that have to be opened and shut again every time someone comes to the house. It just seems a waste of time, and it's annoying if you are carrying stuff. And a closed gate  conveys a sort of "my house is my fortress" feel. To me, anyway.
    • Thanks for posting this. Really interesting. It would be good if you added a star rating, so that it was easier to do comparisons / see what your top recommendations are. Great blog though!
    • Hi, Just a quick note to say it's six months since I launched Eats Dulwich. In that time I've reviewed 28 restaurants. Usually four or five a month except for a month when I came down with gout, which I guess is an occupational hazard. Don't say I don't suffer for my art. Early on someone – Sue, I think – asked me what I'm going to do when I've reviewed every restaurant in East Dulwich. I'm nowhere near that point, but what I have found is that a lot of new openings have tended to be in Rye Lane, so the site has expanded to cover SE15, hence the slight change of name (still haven't had any cease and desist letters from anything with a similar name).  Anyway, the site is still free, it would be great if as many readers as possible here can subscribe so that they automatically get new posts (when you try to subscribe the default might be paid subs but that's down to Substack, just tick the free option instead) as I don't post everything on EDF. Obviously you can get reviews elsewhere if you want, but I think this is the only proper site for local East Dulwich people written by a local East Dulwich person. If you like eating out please have a read. And if there are other places you think I should visit please mention them below and i'll do my best to try them.

    • Can you explain what your point was, then? Because it isn't clear to me. No. Perhaps you could provide a link and explain its relevance? That would be helpful     Those figures suggest that over 10,000,000 voters were not "rejecting a far left party."
