Following the deadly Langley bombing that is blamed on disgraced congressman Nicholas Brody (Damian Lewis) and having helped him escape the U.S., Carrie Mathison (Claire Danes) is desperate to solve the case and clear Brody's name as the third season of the conspiracy thriller begins. But Carrie's efforts are threatened when she becomes the focus of a hostile Senate investigation led by Sen. Andrew Lockhart (Tracy Letts) who believes the CIA is covering up the truth about the attack. Saul Berenson (Mandy Patinkin), now CIA chief, also feels the heat of the probe and it begins to undermine his efforts to revive the Agency. Trouble also brews in the Brody household when Dana (Morgan Saylor) starts exhibiting destructive behavior and runs away from home. As for Brody, who has a $10 million bounty on his head, he begins to recuperate from a gunshot wound in Venezuela where he is held captive by armed gunmen in a ramshackle Caracas building called the Tower of David. With no passport, no money and no chance of escape, Brody slowly begins to realize that he may have to live out the rest of his days in this slum dwelling where Carrie has arranged for him to at least be safe.
Wow - third season over and (spoiler alert) no Brody...not sure I'll be able to go on to season four although I have read that they keep the bar raised pretty high even in Damien's absence...we'll see.
This release collects every episode from the debut season of The Blacklist, the NBC series starring James Spader as a powerful and lethal spy who helps authorities catch other nefarious international criminals.
Mr. Spader shines (of course) but supporting cast members are excellent as well - my particular favorite (and not enough of him in Season Two) was Tom...a/k/a Ryan Eggold. Wishing, as always, for more commentaries, extras, making of...etc.
This set contains every episode from the first season of the critically-respected series Homeland, starring Claire Danes as a self-destructive CIA agent who begins to suspect that a veteran, who was held as a POW, may in fact be a terrorist instead of the war hero the media has made him out to be.
There were no "extras" on this disk at all...other than that, Mr. Rickman is the bomb - as always...nice to see him with Kate again - they worked together before on Sense & Sensibility (screenplay by Emma Thompson) which is EXCELLENT!
Months after undergoing electroconvulsive therapy, Carrie Mathison (Claire Danes) is living a relatively peaceful life with her father and sister as the second season of the conspiracy thriller begins. But her mental health is threatened when she accepts a mission to return to Beirut and gather intelligence from the wife of a Hezbollah leader, a woman who once was one of Carrie's most valued sources. Carrie can't resist the possibility of bringing down terrorist Abu Nazir (Navid Negahban) and perhaps being reinstated at the CIA. In Washington, D.C., congressman Brody (Damian Lewis) is being groomed as a potential vice-presidential running mate, but Saul (Mandy Patinkin) makes an alarming discovery that puts a serious dent in Brody's plans. Trouble also brews in the Brody household when Brody's daughter Dana (Morgan Saylor) outs him as a Muslim to her mom Jessica (Morena Baccarin), who is enjoying life as the newest member of the Capitol's inner circle. Dana's life becomes even more complicated when she and the vice president's son inadvertently commit a crime while out on a joy ride. Throughout it all, Carrie is increasingly drawn to Brody, even though he is the willing pawn of the world's most feared terrorist.
The plot thickens among the vampire and werewolf denizens of New Orleans, as Klaus Mikaelson (Joseph Morgan) struggles to carve out a place for himself and his pregnant mate Hayley Marshall (Phoebe Tonkin) in the aftermath of the werewolf clan's victory over the city.
This release contains every episode from the debut season of Poldark, the BBC channel's adaptation of the historical novels by Winston Graham. Ross Poldark (Aiden Turner) returns to England from the American Revolutionary War to discover that his great love is betrothed and his village is on the brink of starvation.
From the superb cast to the cinematography (that part of England is SO beautiful), to the sumptuous soundtrack that you will want to get and listen to over and over again....so lush and haunting. Not enough good things to say about this spectacular PBS program.
Loved this second one just as much as the first one...I appreciate honest portrayals of what it's like to get older and to show that your life doesn't have to be over once you reach 60... Great story, great cast, great music...love it!
