The escaped “terrorist” Nicholas Brody is hiding where? Venezuela. Let’s take a quick glance at Season Three, shall we? In fact, one begins, seriously, to wonder who is on what CIA payroll. There is also the acceptance of government mythology about 9-11. While ostensibly critical, the respect given this propaganda ends up feeling like an ad for the show.
That even leftist (sic) cyber publications such as Jacobin can write “thoughtful” commentary on this trash is astounding. The show never misses a chance to stigmatize the standard villains of the day (as if Dick Cheney, Bibi Netanyahu, and Eric Holder were script advisers), while valorizing and justifying torture, entrapment, illegal surveillance (I know, quaint idea), and racial profiling. This is an overtly, nakedly, proudly, racist bit of police state propaganda. Apparently the once flagship drama for Showtime, has hit the ratings skids this season, but not critically, and that remains troubling.
