The third season of Homeland has released its trailer. Its tone is working hard to drizzle on your fun Friday mood, so proceed with caution: “To Build a Home” is not the song you are going to want to bump on your drive out of the office today. “To Build a Home” is a Monday-morning sadjam. Brody’s daughter gets hounded by paparazzi, Carrie cries on a bed and contemplates her frown in a mirror, and someone’s hand caresses kitchen linoleum. Best served with a side of Abilify.

Keep the spaceballs up because ain’t no coming down, set your eyes on fire with flashing lights, or think about the enormity of the universe and all of the strange album covers it has given us. Resist the obvious. There’s no fun in that.
