[Editor’s note: The following review contains spoilers for the “Homeland” Season 6 finale, Episode 12, “America First.”]
“Homeland” painted a frightening picture of America throughout Season 6, slowly drawing back the curtain on a massive government conspiracy that resulted in a New York City bombing and an attack on the President-Elect’s life. Thrilling enough in its storytelling, especially during the tense first 20 minutes of the finale, Season 6 was made harrowing by the timely nature of its issues to our current political culture. The latest iteration of the Showtime drama argued we, the people, are not only right to be suspicious of our government, but that its current state is dangerous on a national and personal level for everyone connected to it.
“You remember what Graham Greene said, don’t you?” Dar Adal (F. Murray Abraham) told Saul (Mandy Patinkin) after he’d been arrested for his part in the conspiracy to discredit President-Elect Keane (Elizabeth Marvel). “The secret services are the only real measure of a nation’s political health.

Bachelor nation, rejoice: It’s the week of the dreaded two-on-one date. Well, dreaded for the contestants, highly entertaining for us. Even more exciting? Our girl Corinne‘s on it … but we’ll get to that in a bit.
Rose Ceremony
We picked up where we left off last week, with the Great Emotional Intelligence Debate of 2017 and Corinne threatening to punch Taylor in the face. Taylor told Corinne that multiple women in the house have questioned her maturity, and Corinne was like: Fine, but maturity is different than emotional intelligence, Ha! (Is it different though? Methinks not.)
After their fight,...

Previously on Beauty and the Geek, nine beauties and nine geeks met for the first time. They found out that they would be competing against each other, and the beauties immediately set about strategizing. Tensions rose between Randi and Amber, and their big, colossal fight sent Jim running to go get some popcorn. In the new elimination room, John E. wasn't quick enough with the buzzer, and he became the first person to be ejected from season 5 of Beauty and the Geek.
Tonight's episode of Beauty and the Geek begins immediately post-elimination. Everyone cheers for the returning geeks. Amber is happy to see Tommy back. She's a little gold-digger in the making—she likes Tom because he's good-looking (and not a real geek, I still maintain) and he'll be rich someday. Cara is happy to see Chris and his rhinestone-encrusted pink hat. Tara isn't too keen to see Jonathan...
