“Homeland,” the much-acclaimed television series about American intelligence agents who root out terror threats, is mulling a departure from its ordinary plot, which focuses on Middle Eastern Muslims, and considering — post Charlie Hebdo attacks — a new storyline that does not involve the radical Islamic element.

The show might go with a new type of threat “for creative reasons,” the show’s representatives said, the Daily Mail reported.

Consider that when the Cold War was pretty hot, James Bond and the Man From Uncle weren't going after Russians or Communists, but rogue millionaires and mad scientists.

Robert Vaughn's sidekick was a Soviet Georgian (played by David McCallum). Not much realism or focus on the real enemy there.

I never saw I Spy, but wouldn't be surprised if Cosby and Culp were hunting down aspiring actresses who wouldn't drink the Kool Aid.

Well, I guess there goes their fan base!

Too bad for Treadmill Man Reid as 2015 was the year Harry was going to take out those evil millionaire Koch brothers... Hopefully the henchmen of SPECTRE (Seated Publicly Elected Conservatives Threatening Republican Establishment) will show up to really save the day.

Probably something along these lines -- Never played these "battlefield" games, but this was forwarded to me by someone who does (or used to, I should say now) -- note the Gadsden flag in the background behind the evil white rednecks.
