Last Sunday night when Claire Danes took home her second consecutive Emmy Award for Homeland it got the fans frothing at the mouth for the series return. Tonight it begins as the first of twelve episodes premieres (repeat airings, also OnDemand). This season promises to be just as tense with enough edge-of-your seat suspense as previous seasons.
SYNOPSIS: HOMELAND Season 3 opens during the aftermath of the horrific terror attack that decimated the U.S. intelligence apparatus, and prompted a global manhunt for the world’s most wanted terrorist – Nick Brody (Damian Lewis). As Carrie (Claire Danes) and Saul (Mandy Patinkin) begin to pick up the pieces of their shattered professional and personal lives, they are swept up in the political and media firestorm surrounding the terror attack and the subsequent search for Brody’s whereabouts. The series also stars Morena Baccarin, Rupert Friend, Sarita Choudhoury, Morgan Saylor, Tracy Letts, Jackson Pace and F. Murray Abraham. One of Showtime’s top-two rated series (along with DEXTER), HOMELAND tied for the most wins of any program at the 2012 Emmy Awards, honored with six wins including Outstanding Drama Series, Outstanding Writing for a Drama Series, and Outstanding Lead Actress and Actor in a Drama Series; and has garnered 11 Emmy Nominations in 2013. Additionally, HOMELAND has been awarded Golden Globe Awards, SAG, Peabody, Television Critics Association, AFI and Critics' Choice Awards.
