I've been a huge fan of Showtime's Homeland since 2011 and I think it's one of the best shows on TV right now. Season after season, they've continued to prove to the viewers why they deserved all the Emmy awards they received. I never thought it got better after Brody's death but it was still good nonetheless. Claire Danes is such an amazing actress and she delivers once again in the seventh season finale titled "Paean to the People". To be honest, the sixth and seventh seasons have been my least favorite mostly because I never got invested in the Elizabeth Keen story line. It was boring to me and I wished Carrie was kicking ass in another country. Although, the season has been quite emotional for Carrie with the loss of custody of Frannie and her struggles with Bipolar Disorder.

I was a bit glad that Carrie left the CIA but somehow she sunk in deeper than ever in season seven to the point of sacrificing herself once again for her nation. When she gets captured by the Russians, she refuses to read a false statement and is denied her medicine which literally drives her insane over seven months.The Final scene of Saul looking into her eyes with so much concern and love was heartbreaking. Poor Carrie. President Keane resigned before the episode ended and I wonder what the future hold for these female characters. I really want Carrie to be okay and this may only happen when she stops involving herself in dangerous situations that end up with her losing Frannie or her life. She already lost Brody, Quinn, Frannie and now, her mind. At this point, I'm really not sure what to expect for the next season but I don't think it would be an easy ride.Season eight has been confirmed as the final season and I can't wait to see how the Emmy winning show would conclude. Hopefully we won't be disappointed.
