Ive just watched the first 4 episodes from season 1 and allthough it seems ok so far I was just wondering if its worth carrying on watching as ive heard nothing but good things about it

If you can suspend your belief on some plot holes then it's an excellent drama. Highly recommended. Quite similar in style to 24 (both created or developed by Howard Gordon).

I only caught season one late - I watched all twelve episodes within a week or so. I saw season two as it aired on C4.

Damian Lewis and Claire Danes are both very good in it.

Cheers pal . I was a massive 24 fan so I will get back watching it later , im just catching uo on dexter season 7

When you get to season 2 you will need more will power to get through the first 5 episodes, then it really starts to crank up!

It's gone a bit too 24 for me. Explosions, shoot outs, car smashes, hidden rooms that only Carrie can spot (?). I preferred the first series, which was much more measured.

I found a number of plot lines in both series' somewhat implausible. It's worth watching, but far from a classic.

Nearly finished series 1 now and tbh not really in rush to watch season 2 . Not a patch on 24 imo

It's not even close, is it? If 24 is Man Utd, Homeland is Doncaster Rovers.

its not even as good as spooks tbh mate .

Fingers crossed the 24 film should be in production this year.
