Home is where the heart is as the well-known phrase goes…or in this case Homeland is where the heart is. Brody is (unsurprisingly) proving to be a very popular jumping on point for Damian Lewis Fandom.
We continue our fan stories with a short collection of stories of how Sergeant Brody captured the attention and added a few more Damian Lewis fans to the count.
As you will see, some of these stories have been sitting with us a while – Louanne’s refers to getting ready to watch season 2 of Billions! The response by you all to the request for fan stories has been wonderful. If your story has not appeared on the blog yet, please do not be disheartened and be reassured we will get there! Thank you to you all for participating.
Damianista’s note: I am jumping in with apologies to my dear Tbkwrm who has prepared this post for publication. But I need to say a few words about the wonderful fans whose fan stories we are sharing today. While I have not had the pleasure of meeting Louanne on social media or in person, I am proud to call Hellie and Marie friends. Marie and I have had several Twitter exchanges over the past year and it was a pleasure to finally meet her in person at Billions LIVE at Paley Center last year. And even though I did not meet Hellie in person, we have shared A LOT on social media in particular about our love for 80s music! Both Hellie and I are Duranies but Hellie is first and foremost a Spandau Ballet girl. I kindly asked her to use the pic she uses for her Damian Lewis fan story 😀 Huge thanks go to all three for taking the time to share their stories with us and their constant support. Cheers!

When Brody died on Homeland, I was one of those fans who searched high and low, scrambling to find somewhere to talk about him and about the show. At one point I ended up on the Facebook page for Homeland and tried fruitlessly to sift thru all the flat “No Brody No Homeland” pointlessness to find someone who saw what I saw in the character and in the show. Brody will never die, I thought. So why rage into the void, begging for him to come back from the dead? Shows do listen to such things, I suppose. But, even if they did listen to all the pleas from fans, what would Brody come back for? To be a dad to his new daughter? To live happily ever after with Carrie? Really, fans?
