Homeland is one of the twistiest, turniest shows on all of television. I’m still not entirely sure who is a good guy, who is a bad guy, and what Claire Danes is going to remember after her character had electro shock therapy at the end of Season 1.
Well, get ready for Season 2! Showtime released a trailer today (don’t freak out, it’s just below) and already we have absolutely no idea what is going on. In fact we have at least 40 questions from the 95-second teaser. Man, how are we going to wait to get all those questions (which are below the trailer) answered? Oh, until September 30. One answer down, 41 to go!
