'Homeland' S8 review: A sizzling final season of surprises and suspense

‘Hold on, Yevgeny. If you think that I’ve become Brody, would that mean that... you’re Carrie?’

Having come to the Homeland party rather late (bingeing its first seven seasons just last year), I have to admit that my connection to the show is not all that strong.

That’s the trouble with binge viewing. While fans who watch an episode a week have time to anticipate, extrapolate, re-evaluate – and eventually form a deep connection with some characters – from one installment to the next, it’s different when you zip through half a season a night.
