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.

It was a sharp opening episode... It's great to see such a complex character on television. If only we knew whether to trust her. Go to Full Review

It's been a swansong befitting of a character who'll be missed -- a character who, until her final hour, has been one of television's all-time greats. Go to Full Review

Betty B @Betty1977 Feb 1 Besides the occasional issues and credibility of the storyline, Season 8 definitely is an improvement on the previous couple of seasons. Gripping and mostly well-acted, it kept me guessing right till the end. See more Sergio M @NanoFurioso Jan 29 Muy buena redencion de la septima temporada, hay cosas que no explican como la dimision de la presidenta y se queda en el limbo, luego ese sindrome de Estocolmo de Carrie con Yevgeny que es muy forzado, pero la trama esta interesante, la muerte de Max me jodio mucho, pero eso demuestra que te hace conectar un poco con los personajes. El ultimo capitulo es brutal, nunca sabes que va a pasar, y el final se me queda amargo, porque si que se cierra un poco pero estaba yo creo prevista una 9 y ultima temporada pero supongo que por el COVID se cancelo, aun asi muy buena serie y super recomendada. See more Nancy M. @nmack Dec 17 Excellent series — all 8 seasons. See more Dave H. @foolsdancentell Dec 7 Perhaps the greatest final episode ever. I found the entire series to be outstanding. See more Avindu G @RT86379654 01/18/2025 Despite the absurd amount of lifelines thrown at our heroine the journey of hers through eight whole seasons was getting to know an imperfectly perfect unique character who is worthy of building a whole franchise was around. Taboos, Conflicts and Ultimatums and whole new theatres of dangers that are intertwined and spiraling out of control builds a politically religious yet sociologically reasonable picture of affairs between civilizations. Performances were excellent especially for the unfallen key characters. Great music and sound effects. Strong visuals,special effects and cinematography. Great dialogues and an imaginative storytelling which is worth the wait of all eight seasons. See more Robert A @RT51889019 12/19/2023 Lost it's way in season 8. Predictable and boring...
