post the hundred-sixty-first, 2013

i guess we are going to start watching "homeland". i personally think we have enough shows already, but i'm willing. 

1. first problem - they use that shaky-cam thing. i hate the hell out of that. it's the modern era for godsakes. hold the damn camera still. 

2. i get that clare danes is some kind of higher up in the CIA - like really high. why is she playing it like she's a scared little girl? buck up, for godsakes. 

3. mandy patinkin with a huge beard. how is he believable as CIA director (or whatever he is)?

4. why do people have to be such butts about when their kids attempt suicide? i mean, on tv. is this realistic? haven't we learned anything from, say, watching tv?

5. i'd really like to have some of those orange- and black-wrapped peanut butter candies about now.
