    If you look at the negative reviews they generally say the same thing - pathetic politically correct meandering show with a pro-Muslim, pro-liberal anti-right political agenda. A general wailing and gnashing of teeth about how the show used to be about terrorists now it's all sermonising about how poor Muslims are the victims, assumptions made Hilary would win etc etc.

    Which is all completely accurate - I would just like to add how boring and slow it is compared to older seasons, and how it is now stuffed full of Hollywood moments which are just completely unbelievable and make no sense.    … Expand

    Just another series with a political agenda and not so good directing/acting.
    Carrie got so boring!
    So far the 6th season is the worst.
    More to come?

    What happened? This show used to be great, and it morphed into garbage. The writing and acting are all terrible. Everyone is weak and confused, without direction. Plus, far-left views seem to have taken hold of the writers and the plot is just nothing like previous seasons. It's now anti-Israel, pro-Iran deal, and all the leftist garbage you hear on tv over and over. Done with this series.What happened? This show used to be great, and it morphed into garbage.

    I LOVED the first 5 seasons, Carrie is such a great character. This season is such a garbage rendition of what I feel are writers' "vision" of the 2016 election. It's so obvious what they're doing its an insult to my intelligence. You ruined such a great part of my television life, you smug, pompous Homeland writers whomever you are.

    After three episodes, I'm calling Time of Death. This is the most pathetic start to "Homeland" in its five seasons. It's boring, plodding, and tainted with more political crap that none of us wants to deal with after the insane election of 2016. Whoever drew up the architecture for this season is to be fired.

But that's just me. If you want to see Carrie as a mommy, as a Muslim sympathizer, and a surrogate to a Hillary stand-in, then knock yourself out, but this isn't the same series it's been to now; and it's likely the final season. I don't see a renewal after this travesty. Movin' on.… Expand

    Very disappointing season (6 shows in) for the once very strong show. Not sure what happened to the writers from past seasons but maybe they went on strike or went onto other things - leaving the show this season to be written by the college interns from UC Berkeley.

So disappointed with the extreme liberal left views on this show and now making our CIA organization to be similar with Putin's old KGB team. And don't even get me going with the incredibly stupid Quinn storyline - I'm surprised the actor went along with these scripts...pathetic. Just so frustrated with a show that once so good and so riveting...now, not sure what Danes is doing but she needs to stop the crap about being a lawyer for a person who hates America and get back to producing a good story about espionage. Very disappointed with you Claire and the rest of this team. Might be the last season for me....… Expand

    Very sad and disappointed by what this series has morphed into. Are they caving to certain interest groups? Do they feel the need to take on what they don't understand (but think they do) about the 2016 election? Most people don't have a problem with reflection on the murky work of counter terrorism, and finding a policy that is effective.

    This season's gripping narrative feels more significant of our times, than HOMELAND ever has. The terrorist insurgencies and obviously Claire Dante's outstanding performance. What more would you need from this show.

    Homeland has lost the sense that it’s always a step ahead of our real-life worries. Besides transitional indigestion at the CIA, there’s not enough going on.

    One questionable character aside, Homeland is off to a strong start and the new setting is a great change of scenery.

    It’s smart writing for smart characters. Six seasons in and Danes and the writers keep Carrie a complicated character who sometimes does the wrong thing.
