When Marine Sgt. Nicholas Brody returns home following eight years in captivity, CIA agent Carrie Mathison thinks he has turned and is connected to a terror plot to be carried out on American soil, so she engages him in a dangerous game of cat and mouse that puts America's national security at risk. Later on, Carrie gets a promotion and returns to the front lines overseas. She is assigned to one of the CIA's most volatile and dangerous stations in the Middle East, where she is in the heart of battle in the war on terror. Years later, after being disillusioned and placing herself in a self-imposed exile in Berlin, Carrie becomes estranged from the CIA, eventually returning stateside where she works for a foundation providing aid to Muslims living in America.

Gabriel Tate Daily Telegraph (UK) Homeland is no longer the irrelevance it threatened to become. It ended well. Rated: 3/5 Mar 11, 2015 Full Review Anna Silman Salon.com After a number of consecutively excellent episodes, we're prepared to say it: Those of you gave up on Homeland last season should come back into the fold Dec 9, 2014 Full Review Emily Nussbaum The New Yorker The show has returned to its roots as an espionage thriller, in part by taking an unsentimental view of its heroine's worst behavior. Dec 8, 2014 Full Review Jake Kring-Schreifels Esquire Magazine The show had taken on the characteristics of the jazz filtering through the opening credits and Carrie's workout ear buds. It was loud and improvisational. More importantly, it had given Carrie back the attractive quality of competence. Oct 22, 2018 Full Review Adam Sweeting The Arts Desk It suffers too much from echoes of stuff you've seen before, from Secret State to Edge of Darkness, while the fancy on-screen overlays of computer data are too brazenly post-Sherlock for comfort. Jul 24, 2018 Full Review Rob Lowman Los Angeles Daily News Homeland may never have the zeitgeist it once had, but it certainly has regained its footing with an exciting spy thriller.

Amir It's entertaining but all of the season make USA and CIA look so weak as pretty much every time day lose! Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 11/16/23 Full Review Chris M After a slip in season 3, Himeland comes back in full force in season 4. Incredible story will keep you on the edge of your seat. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/29/23 Full Review Audience Member It was well acted, but I missed Brody already in this season. Maybe that's why I found this season kind of boring. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review the s Although a solid season, the episodes set in the Middle East didn't age very well. It's 2022…American troops have been withdrawn from Afghanistan. Americans haven't had to deal with Islamic terrorism in well over a decade. The real threats today come from inside America's borders. We've all realized that extremism in America is as prevalent and dangerous as what goes on outside of our borders. Russia has reminded us that they're still America's real nemisis but they've realized that the war they want to wage is with information and disinformation. Right wingers March around carrying automatic weapons in an effort to prove that they're not scared of anything and all it takes is a rich man to spin make-believe yarns about stolen elections to get them to attack their own Capitol building. So this idea of Islamic terrorism harkens back to a time we've moved beyond. And while that speaks volumes about our troops, national security and defense agencies, it's hard to get in the mindset of Islam being public threat number one anymore. It feels dated to think that way because in fact, it's not the reality of the world anymore. Having said all of that, (as mentioned) it's a well written season with the same stellar acting the previous seasons offered. The story is good and it's packed with some espionage, action and suspense. It's not the writer's fault that the world has moved beyond focusing on the Middle East, it's just the nature of the world that America would eventually deal with its main threats coming from inside the house, unfortunately. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Nicht alle Aspekte des Deals mit diesem Unternehmen sind ideal Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Unbearable. Carries character who was already a tough pill to swallow has turned into a mythical fake never possible joke. The show has become so predictable between her breaking all the rules and the constant "Carrie stand down" "Carrie stay in the car" "Carrie im warning you" over and over and over as if the real world and the laws don't apply to this cartoon character. Oh but hey it does apply to all the other characters just to keep her insane storyline moving forward. Was really getting into it then Brody is killed and now just Carrie. Ya I'm good Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
