- harryf 5y agoNo and I’m not saying it’s a conspiracy. They were opportunistic. I remember back then hearing an interview with the writers who were describing writing each episode of 24 on a weekly basis between episodes. And the article I linked to describes how they tried to use Homeland to reflect more seriously on the ideas around torture that first appeared in 24. Ultimately they created a show that fed into the publics desire for revenge, post 9/11, and made a big success out of it. What it leads to is the point I already made - the goal torture is oppression; to create fear and thereby obedience, not gathering information.
