Being "just a show" isn't an excuse for getting away with poor writing

There're examples out there of TV shows hanging in there thoughout their run with excellent, well done, believable seasons. The Wire comes immediately to mind. I don't think there was a weak season from beginning to end. Rome was another as was Deadwood (inexcusably prematurely aborted by HBO). Add in the Breaking Bad to the mix and you've got 4 shows that were great from day 1 to day "n" and were more than "just a show", which apparently Homeland, with so much initial promise, is deigned to be :(

Anyway, the season wasn't a bust, it just could have been so much more...
IMHO and all that crapola :)
