I was thinking the same thing. Where is the kid?
Dexter was awesome, but the whole time I watch it I just can't wait for Homeland to come on. Sorry Dex but you'll never compete.

I loved early Dexter, but I don't ever remember thinking it was as awesome as Homeland. But I didn't watch those when they aired and that usually makes me like things less.

Ah... That may explain why Caddy pulled Mr. Hyde.
Anyway, I don't have Showtime but I am curious how did Homeland handle Claire Danes' pregnancy? In Season one, Homeland seems to be more action than drama to me. If true, would a style of season two be any difference?

Season 2 of Warehouse 13 was pretty awesome. I'm going to start season 3 today or tomorrow.

She must have had the bulk of her pregnancy in her off-season because if you wouldn't have told me now, i never would have known she was pregnant recently. She was never noticeably pregnant on camera last season or this one. And i'd say the show is a lot more suspenseful drama than it is action. That hasn't changed in season two.

Ya there isn't a **** ton of action at least thus far, I suspect that could change rather soon though.
Saul Berenson is a straight up G btw.

I didn't have a clue she was pregnant. She still looks great, don't know how long ago it was.

I don't really get it. It's pretty commonly accepted that Dexter: The Early Years is some of the best television of the last decade. That's no slight on Homeland which I really love, but Dexter was just on another level. It's not on that level now and probably won't be again, but we shouldn't discredit it's past because of the recent **** ups.

Homeland reminds me a little of Prison Break in that it has the same type of feel to it. The first season of Prison Break was awesome.

Best TV dramas of the decade(2000+) for me:
The Wire
Sopranos(started in 99)
Br Ba
Mad Men
GoT
BSG
Six feet under
Looking at it the consistency issues of Dexter take it out of that top tier for me but at its peak I can say without a doubt it belongs in there.

I loved the first couple of seasons Dexter at the time but in, it really wasn't that good. The drama kept you sucked in but the characters and the writing were never that great.

I can kind of see that. I really enjoyed season one of Prison Break. The rest... Not as much...

Pretty sure it was dexter that actually finished first in the top tv show rankings commie put on a few years back when it was in its prime so it is commonly accepted on here at least.

It was #4, but the three shows ahead of it were Seinfeld, South Park and The Simpsons.

I read perfectly fine, left out one word in my response. "some of the best" doesn't make it any less ridiculous of a statement.

So it isn't commonly accepted? The NFLDC 'common opinion' disagrees with you.
