Episode 337: Implausible vs. Indecipherable

In this week's episode the Regular Joe's take a look at the wrap ups of two very different premium cable series. After nine years and eight seasons, Showtime's Homeland takes a bow. At this point fans who have stuck with this show have spent nearly a decade with Clare Dane's bipolar CIA operative Carrie Mathison. We've been with her through highs, and lows, and some even lower lows. Nevertheless, despite gaping plot holes, storylines that strain the very limits of credulity, and lots of exceptionally bad life choices, we will miss this Sunday staple espionage/action drama. In hindsight it really is one of those shows that holds up best the less you think about it. On the flipside HBO's Westworld just finished its third season. Three years in and we still haven't got a freaking clue what's going on. This season they brought in Breaking Bad's Aaron Paul, and even he never seemed to have any more idea what was happening then we did. Sure, It's gorgeous to look at, but at some point is the show supposed to make sense? With a fourth season already announced it's hard to imagine where they go from here. Honestly, we probably won't know better even after we've seen it. We also have a round of What's in the Box, our weekly update on who will be in the Mandalorian next season as well as other Random Topics. Thanks for listening and stay safe!
