Homeland Season 8: First impressions & What we know so far

Homeland Season 8 Updates: The first season of Homeland posed a question- who is a true patriot? At the point when Nicholas Brody (Damian Lewis) got back following eight years spent as a hostage of al-Qaeda, everyone commended him as a genuine saint for persevering through a colossal measure of torment both to his body and mind for his nation. In any case, there was one who declined to digest this story of Brody. Meet Carrie Mathison (Claire Danes), a top CIA agent, who doesn’t have a line that she won’t cross to guard her homeland against outside threats.

Warned by her source about an American P.O.W who is broken to the techniques of al-Qaeda and has changed sides, Carrie starts to seek after Brody tenaciously. In any event, when she is advised to ease off various occasions, she won’t stop.

Homeland Season 8 Updates

How coldblooded, impassive, rude, and self-fixated an individual must be to suspect a war veteran? To scrutinize his affection for the nation? Furthermore, to blame him for plotting with foreign fear mongers against his own? She should be insane.

Patriotism has been a repetitive subject of Homeland. We have seen normal citizens making exceptional sacrifices for the greater good. Also, the power dynamics surrounding politicians to compete with their opponents.

Simultaneously, we find out about Brody’s story, we were likewise told about the experience that pushed him to turn into what he is now. It implies humans have a breaking point after all. Everybody has a limit, but what is the limit for Carrie?

The show keeps on pushing Carrie past the known furthest reaches of human perseverance. She is not so good in the wake of enduring seven months of torment in a Russian.

It makes us can’t help thinking about why Carrie Mathison’s sufferings for her nation are not acknowledged in the way it deserves. Possibly, Carrie has changed the ground reality after effectively showing up who Brody was- a double agent working for al-Qaeda to assault his country.

She has indicated that there are numerous sides to a story: one which is good for a public talk, two, the inside story, and three, the reality which is consistently multidimensional.

Show makers Alex Gansa and Howard Gordon have truly increased the stakes for the last season. Homeland season 8 debuts on Hotstar on February 10, and on Star World on February 16.
