Is a counterterrorism spy drama capable of making the kind of meaningful insights its showrunners aspire to make? Frankly, no, at least not without making itself incoherent, as season six threatens to do.

Suddenly the show's vision of the intelligence community and the administration it answers to looks like something out of 'The West Wing.'

The first two episodes promise a contemplative sixth as opposed to a shock-and-awe one. Carrie - I think we can all agree - deserves the breather.

Typically in a long-running series, a character - especially a female protagonist - tends to get her rough sides sanded down. Not Carrie. She still acts as a force for good, but she's stubborn and reckless as always.

The end result was a patchy and incoherent story that was salvaged by Lesli Linka Glatter's taut direction of the suspenseful finale.

Sadly, though, as I look back on this season, which is set in New York and deals with conflicts between a president-elect and the intelligence community, it's clear that it was the weakest one yet.

Still, I enjoy the slow scene-setting and anticipate that Homeland's tales of a terror-besieged state will be necessary escapism as we succumb to the coming darkness. It's the calm before the stupid, basically.

The setting suits the downscaled ambitions of the once indispensable, now reliably watchable Showtime series.

Yup, it's my own fault for getting on board in the first place back in January. Just when I thought I was out, they pulled me back in, then put me to sleep.
