Homeland is being absolutely devoured over the past couple nights. A friend of mine said the show is like 24 if 24 was good, but to be honest, I don't think it's really fair to compare the two shows. On the one hand, the writers of Homeland actually care about plot structure. On the other hand, Jack Beauer has to torture a cougar who's really a double agent in order to get answers this week on worlds worst show 24.
