Homeland

Oh, how we love when a season finale proves every bit as literally explosive as people claim. But for 'Homeland' season 2 finale "The Choice," the explosion in question left a number of holes in the cast, and even more questions how the show will re-invent itself going into a third season next fall. Executive producers Howard Gordon and Alex Gansa have been making the rounds today to ans

Anyone who watches 'Homeland' well knows that the plots and characters driving the first and second season of the Emmy-winning show aren't meant to provide the drama forever. Brody can only remain a credible asset for so long, and eventually Carrie Matheson will need a new terrorist to hunt. As we approach next week's season finale "The Choice," are we any closer to learning what the nex

While some believe the second season of Showtime's award-winning counter-terrorism drama 'Homeland' stumbled a bit from its Emmy glory, viewers everywhere remain on the edge of their seats to see how Carrie Matheson will close out the second season. Will Nicholas Brody live to foil Abu Nazir's terrorist plots another day? Will things ever go smoothly for Saul? Will Carrie have another one of her j

Last night's 'Boardwalk Empire' and 'The Walking Dead' episodes might have delivered some explosive finales, but the big 'Homeland' bang was much smaller scale. It seems both Carrie and Saul have hit a major obstacle in their pursuit of Abu Nazir, leaving it unclear exactly who to trust going forward. Will Carrie's instincts hone in on the right men in next Sundays' "The Motherf---er with a T

Last night's all-new 'Homeland' episode "Two Hats" threw quite a few new complications into the mix, compounding the effort to stop Abu Nazir's imminent terrorist plot with a development that, shall we say, hit closer to home!  Indeed, one of Carrie Matheson's team isn't exactly who they claim to be, and it's up to Saul Berenson to figure out their purpose.  To that end, he'll need to me

Considering the twists and turns that Showtime's 'Homeland' Keeps peppering us with week after week, most recently with Sunday's rather literal "I'll Fly Away," we're hard pressed to believe that any of the characters have time to take a breath.  Yet when Oscar-winner F. Murray Abraham drops by the series in an upcoming episode, Mandy Patinkin's Saul Berensen will definitely sit up and t

Past the midway point of its second season, Showtime's Emmy darling drama 'Homeland' has proven itself a master of the final act gut punch, delivering perhaps its greatest shock in the final moments of last night's nail-biter "I'll Fly Away."  Now that a face from Brody's past has returned, and the CIA just about powerless to stop an incoming terrorist attack, what will Carrie Matheson d

As hard as we find it watching 'Homeland' after 'SNL' and Anne Hathaway's near-perfect skewering of the Emmy-winning Showtime series, the second season is definitlely spiraling into an incredible year.  Not only did Carrie and the others successfully uncover Congressman Brody's treason, but better yet bring him into the fold to take down Abu Nazir!  But after last week's tense resolution of "

Easy come, easy go.  A few weeks ago we were excited to learn that Brendan Fraser would make his first foray into regular TV with TNT's 'Legends,' particularly given the series derived from 'Homeland' executive producer Howard Gordon.  Now it seems that Fraser has dropped out of the project for personal reasons, but what could cause such a sudden departure?  And what does it mean for his TV develo

Well, there's a shocker.  After Showtime's critical darling terrorism drama 'Homeland' swept this year's Emmys with wins for Claire Danes, Damian Lewis and the series itself as Outstanding Drama, was there any doubt that Carrie Matheson would continue to piece together terrorist plots in a third season?  But given the explosive turns that the series has taken lately, will the cast of the third sea

No, it's not a TV adaptation of 'The Mummy,' but don't think they haven't tried.  Hollywood star Brendan Fraser is gearing up for his first foray into regular TV, as TNT and 'Homeland' executive producer Howard Gordon have tapped the one-time 'George of the Jungle' star for 'Legends' of a different kind.  But where was the pilot originally supposed to end up, and what will Fraser's first regular t

Well, that was quite a reveal last night, wasn't it?  Where most TV series tend to drag out its mysteries and character secrets over several seasons (we're looking at you, 'Dexter'), 'Homeland's latest episode "Beirut is Back" jumped the gun rather drastically, revealing one of its biggest secrets in only the second episode of the season!  But with ten more episodes to go this year, how
