Why must showtime do this to every fucking show?

the unnecessary melodrama, the dragging on, the having to spell shit out for the audience?

Remember that movie The Siege? that's what this shit feels like. The CIA operative recruits and develops feelings for the source, only to find out he was with the other side all along.

Brody was a prophet. This is not OK.

The only bright spot so far is Fara. Ironically, she's getting closer and closer to the dark side.
