Homeland - Season 5 Review
Season rating - 8-great
Highlight episode - Our Man in Damascus
My least favourite season so far, and that's mainly due to a convoluted plot which wasn't nearly as interesting as it could have been. The season started off pretty good in the first episodes, however, by the middle portion focused far too much on new, one-off characters, and gave little to no interaction from the core three. The end of episode 9 was very shocking, but the way they handled the consequences of it were pretty disappointing for one of my favourite characters. The penultimate episode was an amazing set-up for a great finale...but instead the conflict was resolved in the first 5 minutes and although the episode overall was miles better than season 4's finale - dear God - it was still quite disappointing. Next season should be the last.
