compared to previous seasons, this season is dragging its way too slow. its like its holding back and just be there just to survive. Where are those overwhelming, thrilling and fast paced moments???

It should have ended in season 3, now it is just a waste of time.

One of my favourite shows of all time!

Having just finished watching the finale to the series I want to say I applaude the writers ending the show with a fitting finale! I won't go into detail so as not to spoil anything but well damn done. The cast provided top performances right till the end. Well thought out plot, perhaps a couple little holes but what script has ever been perfect. This however was probably as close as you're going to get. I particularly enjoyed the tie in to S1, masterfully done. Overall, if you like spy movies, espionage, current event scenarios and general cat and mouse, tug of war, situations you should like Homeland. The characters have flaws and throughout the 8 seasons it never glosses over these, but digs deeper into each characters relations with each other. There are slow moments dribbled throughout the series but just learn to expect them in any series... They are there to build and develop the characters. I'm sad to see the show end as it was one of my favourite shows I looked forward to every week. But the end was satisfying without doubt. Thank you to the showrunners, writers, cast and crew. Job well done.

one of the greatest quotes in television history. "well, coming from someone who fucked a guy in a suicide vest, that means alot." season 6, episode 9.
