With a flawless episode that will undoubtedly obliterate any competition, Homeland has given itself a slate as clean as day. Can we just hand Homeland, Claire Danes, and Damian Lewis next year's Emmys already? Seriously.

Coming from an impossibly groundbreaking moment, all eyes were on the follow-up episode of Saul's discovery of Brody's video. From the previews last week, it was hinted that the episode would focus on the whole scenario at hand, but after watching this week's episode, it was the furthest thing away from that. In fact, the only scenes that addressed Brody's video were the beginning and end with over 40 minutes of the episode being devoted to character development. Were this not Homeland, this would be an episode to complain about, but since it is Homeland, the character development was well worth the watch.
Things are shaping up to be very promising. After my lukewarm reception to the season premiere, I was scared as to where this season would eventually turn. It isn't far from what I initially thought with all the demons and angels coming back - thank god - but I feared there would be a lack of continuity that Supernatural does so well. This show never forgets their characters and where they've been, which not only keeps things consistent, but rewards long time fans who do remember the journey these brothers have been through. This episode brought back elements of all previous seasons so effortlessly that I told myself that Supernatural was back, for now.
