Homeland: Still Positive (2013)
Episode 6, Season 3
More hard-bitten Carrie, less cry-face-schizo, equals best season 3 episode

Finally in this episode Homeland is returning to why I started watching it. Not once do you see Carrie-the-cry-face-schizo we've been seeing in the last few episodes, so it is not surprising that this is my favorite so far of the third season. True, that has been an integral thread in the plot from day one, but it was beginning to suffocate the clean tough-minded air of a good hard-boiled spy thriller. Because let's be clear, this is not, nor should it be, a show 'about' Carrie's illness. Rather, it is a kick-a** espionage cliffhanger. Whatever they have to do, they need to keep Carrie's mental problems as peripheral as possible. I almost jumped ship on the fourth episode of this season.
