'Homeland' Season 8 Is Meant To Put An End To "Forever War In Afghanistan"

Updated August 16, 2021

Homeland has had a really good run for the past eight years, but even the best shows need to come to an end.

And unfortunately, that's the case for Homeland. So say goodbye, and rewatch the first seven seasons to make the most of it.

'Homeland' is ending.

And the cast will be spending the final season in the Middle East, where it all began for them.

The synopsis for 'Homeland' season 8 is as follows:

Showtime

"The series' final season finds Carrie Mathison (Danes) recovering from months of brutal confinement in a Russian gulag."

"Her body is healing, but her memory remains fractured – and that is a problem for Saul, now National Security Advisor to the newly ascendant President Warner (Beau Bridges)."

"The top priority of Warner's nascent administration is ending the "forever war" in Afghanistan, and Saul has been dispatched to engage the Taliban in peace negotiations."

Showtime

"But Kabul teems with warlords and mercenaries, zealots and spies – and Saul needs the relationships and expertise that only his protégé, Carrie, can provide."
