they need to figure out what they want to do with the show. Is it about the actual ideological conflict (as I think it should be) in which case its time to take a break from this storyline and maybe delve into some non-american terrorists viewpoints, develop some charecters in training camps in pakistan or whatever, or is it about this particular set of people, in which case they need to do some realistic shit with them. Carrie should go to the hospital and stay there, lets see a few episodes of her locked up, not moping around her dads house. And the daughter should go to jail, and brody should kill mike, i mean, nothging happens to these people. When my life is more interesting than any of your charecters lives, you aint doing your job as a writer.
