Homeland

Claire Danes' Carrie Mathison is always a cool spy to catch up with!

Season 5 jumps forward in time a couple years. Carrie is now living in Germany, working for a wealthy philanthropist whose company tries to help the less fortunate.

Unfortunately for Carrie, her past is not easily left behind, and so she gets pulled into intelligence operations run by the Germans and the Americans against a local threat centered around hacktivists.

Will Carrie be able to help her friends without getting pulled back into the world of espionage?

Season 6 sees Carrie return to the US after another bruising experience abroad.

She tries once again to work in the private sector, but a new threat emerges when entrenched powerful elements are not happy with the new President-Elect, who turns to Carrie because of her expertise.

Carrie also tries to care for a dangerously down-spiraling Quinn, while her trusted Saul is never more than a phone call away.

Season 7 picks up right where the previous left off. Carrie has grown disillusioned with the new President, but must try to use her connections and know-how to prevent the closest thing to a new Civil War in the country.

Her biggest problem is that as time goes by her relationships with her most trusted friends, foremost among them Saul, get more and more complicated.
