Full title: 'Homeland' takes a left turn? New season focuses on Muslim civil rights, female president-elect's CIA battles
The sixth season, which premiered on Sunday [January 15], features former CIA officer Carrie Mathison (Claire Danes) disillusioned by the war on terrorism and returning home to the United States with daughter Frannie to head up a non-profit in Brooklyn that defends American Muslims...
Meanwhile, the "Homeland" episode also introduced a female President-elect Elizabeth Keane (Elizabeth Marvel), who questioned the hard line approach against domestic terror cells and pushed for a "demilitarized CIA." ...
Former "Homeland" fan ... Rush Limbaugh noticed the change ...
Limbaugh concluded, "I said, 'Wow, I wonder how the audience is going to react to this?'" ...

I was being sarcastic, of course. I didn’t think the /sarc tags were necessary. :)
"Homeland" is on Showtime, not Fox.
Ugh - midafternoon, sometimes yes.
I watched Season 1, Episode 1 because of Damian Lewis (Band of Brothers), but couldn’t buy into the premise of a Marine going over to the Muzzies...
Tuned out then and there...PC crappola...
Doctor Who will be following shortly to the dust bin, if the BBC goes ahead with plans to replace the current male Doctor with a black female Doctor ...
So they will soon have all the women in Burqas and have gay hangings? Wife beatings? Honor killings? Suicide bombers? I mean, they might as well go all out
I am about midway with season 2. I will probably watch season 3.
I actually think it’s pretty good.
“They chose storyline to celebrate a Hillary victory in 2016 election.”
That’s what I assumed, and now they’re stuck with a lead character who reminds viewers why they didn’t like Hillary! and, now, their character and her policies.
Not good, first "24" stopped all references to Islamic Terror, now Homeland. I saw the CIA guy (not Saul) on an interview last week blasting Trump. Time to get rid of the subscription to that channel.
This is good to know. My wife and I are on season five now. We’ll, or at least I will, end watching this show at the end of the season.
What Hillary policy? Or do you mean the rape & pillage of the American people?
Exactly, now the show sucks.
They could not show at an least ounce of creativity!
Thanks for the update, no need for me to waste my time watching Hollywood replicate real life PC crap that appeals to the loony 35% on the left
Hmmmmm. I think as we get further into the season the “innocent” Muslim youth that Carrie has protected, which has been released is going to disappoint Carrie. I think it will be proven that he has significant ties to radical Islamic terrorism, will probably commit an act of terror and it will rattle Carrie into going CIA again. We will see.
Same with me, altho not because if any particular actor. The premise sounded interesting, but the thought of a marine traitor turned me off. I lasted 2 viewings. Also didn’t care for lady hero,having her own personal problems.
Did the marine turn traitor? I never kept up with the story. Glad I didn’t now.
never watched once....sounds like I never will
If that happens, I’ll have egg on my face. It wouldn’t be the first time.
