FantasyPNTM nah, carrie finally got what she deserved, cause season 1 left her as a loser letting the terrorist be the winner, and this season allowed her to defeat the terrorist
@Akshay Natu To me she is the ugliest and worst character in tv history. the CIA and mental patient this is incompatible. she was not even punished for the damage done. Nonsense
@Akshay Natu She was a very immoral and horrible person. Carrie always made the same mistakes and many people died because of her fault , including the CIA asset Peter Quinn.
for me, this is the best scene in the whole series.. you could see her mixed feelings about doing it, she wanted to revenge and in the same time she is hurt. amazing scene from claire danes
2:05 I love it when she says "you're special" 😄 Yes. Again, just delicious. Such a powerful scene. 2:30 "If only the circumstances were wildly different". I think we all have that one person we wished it could have turned out differently with. I totally LOVE how Danes delivered these lines... including "you're a disgrace to your nation Sgt Brody. You're a traitor and a terrorist and it's time now to pay up!" almost gives me the adrenaline rush just watching it. It's his visceral, unfiltered reaction that is priceless. The look Carrie gives at the end... redemption and vindication, with also a hint of regret, and guilt. Great acting by Claire Danes e Damian Lewis. And introduction of Quinn just makes that ep even better. 2:08 " i liked you Carrie" " I LOVED YOU" Damn you can see that’s really how they feel through their eyes. What would have been petrifying and intense is Carrie staring at him with an evil dead eyed look just not saying a word as they're carrying him out of the room. Then slowly closing her eyes with an expression of relief and then following them out the door. Again not saying a word. Phenomenal scene. That was intense. That face deserves an emmy. The acting and the music is amazing. Brody finally got his own life ruined after he ruined Carrie’s six months before the start of this season...carrie finally got what she deserved, cause season 1 left her as a loser letting the terrorist be the winner, and this season allowed her to defeat the terrorist. I am surprised that people prefer her with Quinn! Personally I think that these two were meant to be and I will always ship them ❤️
I love it, too, when she says "You're special." It's so great. And I love Brodys facial expression and glipmse downward before that, when he says "I seem to be good at this... if nothing else."

Personally I think that these two were meant to be and I will always ship them ❤️ Carrie is a maniac? NOT... Because a part of her feels bad for the pain and torture he was put through. She recognizes the fact that he served his country dutifully until his capture, and that he really was subjected to inhumane treatment. He was subjected to it for years at a stretch. This is bound to leave even the strongest of men psychologically scarred for life. In Brody’s case he was broken and Abu Nazir took advantage of his psychological state and groomed him into a terrorist. Thankfully Brody did not blow up the suicide vest, and listened to his daughter, which highlights the fact that there is still some humanity left in him. It shows the audience that he’s not a cold-blooded killer but rather a misguided and emotionally damaged man who just needs to be brought back on the right path. Carrie sees this, and as a result feels sympathy for him. Beautiful analysis on Brody :) He is not a terrorist. He is a person with a broken spirit. They broke his mind, yes, but he was also a victim of "destiny" or fate. He fell in love with Issa. This broke his heart. Nicholas Brody is Dorothy's 3 companions: he lost his heart with the death of Issa (Tin-Man), he lost his mind (after 8 years torture and redemption) and he lost his soul with his actions (Lion). Brody: "i liked you Carrie" Carrie: " i LOVED YOU" Killing people isn't a solution... well nothing justifies the Vice President for killing all those innocent children either, an eye for a eye. This VP was Actually an asshole I am not saying assholes deserve to die but Brody was a true man compare to him. I am glad this show contains such controversy as killing civilians while chasing terrorists and also breaking civil rights and even human rights. There is never Just an evil and good in War (there is an exception Nazis, fascists, communists and imperial ''nazi'' Japan who were true and pure evil) Now nowadays the situation is way more complicated.
fitting score to the scene. this track was used only twice in 8 seasons, 1st in this scene and 2nd in the final season when carrie ditches the plane and jumps into yevgeny gromov's jeep. perfect scenes for this soundtrack
It also plays in seasons 1, 2, and 7 - unless you mean this particular version which is a little more dramatic. Regardless, I agree, amazing scenes with a fittingly intense track.
One of my very favorite scene of all time but I think the scene comes shortly after this one is even better. I can't find any clips but it's the scene where Carrie interrogates Brody and FINALLY gets him to confess, something Quinn can't get him to do even after two tries, including one where he stabs Brody's hand with a knife. Carrie gets Brody to confess by being honest and empathetic. It's one of the finest moments in television drama history.
2 Birds1 Stone yes it took them six months after suspending Carrie from the CIA to realise that, and Brody causing that made his bad karma hit him soon enough
[Spoiler alert] Those first seasons with Brody really were something else... I liked all of Homeland, but nothing was ever as good after Brody died. Before that, one of the best shows ever.
Brody was not sexually assaulted by Carrie and Now, The Cops are here to take into custody by taking him to prison that I am glad I am gonna enjoy this particular moment. 🤤
Imagine being cop and the biggest and most important bust of your career is soured by the fact that you fell for then criminal. Rest of your life people will congratulate you for something that gives you great shame. How she went into this suspicious of him, then became convinced of his innocence, fell for him. People will assume Nicholas broody will Be the best success of her career but he probably her most embarrassing mistake.
Here's why Homeland should do a season 9 without Claire Danes as Carrie. The spy thriller might be coming to an end, but it's more relevant now than ever. After eight years, dozens of wild twists and more than a few significant character exits, Homeland will be drawing to a close in 2019. Earlier this month, Claire Danes confirmed that she plans to put Carrie Mathieson to rest after 12 final episodes. So that's that... right? Except, it doesn't have to be, and, we'd argue, it shouldn't be. Homeland deserves a life after Carrie, and here's why. The show started out with a very specific premise, loosely adapted from the Israeli series Prisoners of War: Carrie, a dogged CIA agent with bipolar disorder, becomes involved in a relationship with US marine Nicholas Brody (Damian Lewis), a newly-freed prisoner of war who may have been brainwashed by Al-Qaeda. But, in a bold and risky move, Homeland blew up its original format (no pun intended) just a few episodes into its second season. It dispensed with the Brody character altogether a year later and has since evolved to become a mirror on our times, albeit one that's larger than life. Series boss Alex Gansa has suggested that a time jump in the upcoming season eight will help the show avoid any direct references or parallels to Trump. But since it dropped Brody, Homeland has told new stories by reflecting the geopolitical situation off screen: from a plot concerning allegations that Iran was 'cheating' on its nuclear deal to introducing a right-wing shock jock character in Brett O'Keefe (Jake Weber), the show post-2013 has been all about contemporary America and its relationship with the rest of the world. Though the buzz around the show has undoubtedly faded since the early days, it's actually become a more substantial and more interesting drama since it ditched some of the more familiar spy-thriller tropes and begun delving into the seriously murky world of government policy and international relations. So to bring Homeland to a close at a time when real-world politics is becoming increasingly unpredictable and volatile feels short-sighted. There's an opportunity now to tell gripping and complex stories about an America that's seriously divided, from the man on the street to the highest reaches of government. The problem, of course, is that Danes is done with playing Carrie. But is that really a deal-breaker? The Homeland of today looks and feels very little like the show that first hit our screens in 2011, with not just a radically altered premise but also an almost entirely different cast. Unquestionably, Danes is brilliant on Homeland, as is fellow series veteran Mandy Patinkin as her conflicted mentor Saul Berenson. But that doesn't mean the show couldn't go on without either or both of them. Losing Carrie and/or Saul would have a significant impact, but arguably no more than losing Brody, or later Rupert Friend as troubled CIA hitman Peter Quinn (So incensed were these angry fans, demanding that the show's creators explain themselves.). Losing those two key characters was a blow to Homeland, but a blow that the show withstood, changing and growing in the aftermath. The same would be true of any cast departure, even Carrie's. Homeland has reinvented itself before and it could do so again. But seeing as Gansa and his writing team have been plotting the show's conclusion since at least 2017, odds are that we won't get to see the show explore a new format without Danes at the forefront. And that's a pity. Because, if nothing else, this difficult period in America's history offers up opportunities for film and TV - and especially politically-minded shows like Homeland - to deliver challenging and provocative storytelling.
1:44 Carrie and her addiction to danger remain in evidence. Saul: _Why? You like bad boys?_ Carrie: _That sounds funny coming from you. You know why girls like bad boys, Saul? Because it gives us an excuse to be bad all the while convincing ourselves we’re saving them.”_ - Novel Homeland: Saul's Game (2014) by Andrew Kaplan(Author); Page 228 This is a familiar pattern for Carrie. She has a tendency to choose dangerous men - Brody (her great love) ended up being the father of his daughter Franny before being hanged (unfairly) for treason in Iran. In season 5, to figure out who was plotting against her, Carrie deliberately went off her medication, straining (and eventually ruining) her relationship with her German boyfriend, Jonas (Alexander Fehling). This dedication led to Carrie making one of her most difficult - and polarising - decisions. In season 5, she insisted on having an injured Quinn (Rupert Friend), her friend, former colleague and would-be lover, woken from a coma, despite being warned of the danger to him. Carrie was seeking information to stop a terrorist attack, putting the welfare of many ahead of the welfare of one. Quinn couldn’t help and Carrie stopped the attack anyway, now the consequences for his health were devastating and he ended up a broken man. Even so, at the end of season 6, Quinn sacrificed his own life to save Carrie and President Keane (Elizabeth Marvel), devastating fans of the popular character. (And although Quinn has escaped death many times before, this time it’s for real, says Friend.) Carrie has made a lot of deadly decisions throughout her career - in season 4, she was nicknamed “the Drone Queen” after she ordered an airstrike which killed 40 civilians at a Pakistani wedding - but her involvement in Quinn’s decline and death was probably the hardest for fans of the show to deal with. It’s testament to Claire Danes’ acting skills, however, that she always manages to bring Carrie back from the brink. I don't think there was much debate because if you look at Carrie's history with men in the course of the eight seasons, all her relationships with guys have to be charged in a way for them to even appeal to her at any level. We tried to give her a normal life in season five and it was just untenable for her. She couldn't tolerate that. She has to exist in these heightened, exaggerated situations and clearly this is one of them: Perhaps one of the most important questions about Homeland is the controversial nature of its protagonist. Carrie has won many awards for Claire Danes not only because she is a woman who suffers from a mental disorder, but also because this disorder does not directly affect one of the greatest truths about her personality: Carrie likes to be in danger. Tension, fear, despair are her real comfort zone; and little by little, it sabotages any alternative of ordinary life.
I think your assessment is right in some respects but your characterization of Carrie's motives are wrong. She is relentlessly driven to figure things out and resolve dangerous problems-THAT is what she lives for. She doesn't care about glory; she just wants to be right and the dangers are inherent to the process. Investigative journalists, the good ones, have the same instinct. Carrie and Quinn are good soldiers who made the ultimate sacrifice-THEMSELVES! If anything, it's Quinn who's the danger junkie. And let's not kid ourselves: Saul threw Carrie to the wolves time and time again in service of his own male ambition and Dar did the same to Quinn.
@@wessexmom true. In S6, Framing their relationship in this context has been eye opening for me. Look back at “Species Jump,” for example. When Saul’s secretary brings him the message that Carrie is on the phone, he is annoyed and tells her to take a message. But when Saul sees Carrie outside, he is all warm and fuzzy with his “you ok?” Saul is constantly toggling between soothing Carrie, scolding her, and using her as his situation and needs demand it.
as a filipino, i admire her acting, despite that she said some things about Filipinos and the sewage system in Manila, that she was banned from the Philippines since 1998.
@@Mihaela.user1201 i cant remember much, but she said about the living conditions in Manila that it sucks, these people looked like they lived in the dirty homes full of rats (i mean some part of it is true they do live in the slums), and stuff like that...
Not even a proud man would say everyone does that. Well no, you would have to be commanded by God and by as far as I've seen God is the only one around here commanded by God. The rest of you probably are command by good reasons and justice.

Here's why Homeland should do a season 9 without Claire Danes as Carrie. The spy thriller might be coming to an end, but it's more relevant now than ever.
After eight years, dozens of wild twists and more than a few significant character exits, Homeland will be drawing to a close in 2019.

But since it dropped Brody, Homeland has told new stories by reflecting the geopolitical situation off screen: from a plot concerning allegations that Iran was 'cheating' on its nuclear deal to introducing a right-wing shock jock character in Brett O'Keefe (Jake Weber), the show post-2013 has been all about contemporary America and its relationship with the rest of the world.
Though the buzz around the show has undoubtedly faded since the early days, it's actually become a more substantial and more interesting drama since it ditched some of the more familiar spy-thriller tropes and begun delving into the seriously murky world of government policy and international relations.
