In April Claire Danes has confirmed that Season 8 will be the last, and Showtime officially confirmed the final season in August. In April 2018, showrunner Alex Gansa announced his plans for the final season: Season 8 will be somewhere abroad. We get to play history with the big national stakes in season 7, and we'll get back to a lesser scouting-based season at 8. He also said: We're going to start over in Season 8 and probably make a pretty big time jump between 7 and 8 and put any parallels of Trump behind us and we'll tell a very contained story, hopefully in Israel. In January 2019, it was confirmed that the final season will be held in Afghanistan, shooting will begin in February in Morocco. The season was originally scheduled to debut in June 2019, but it was postponed until the end of 2019 due to the production requirements of our international locations, according to Showtime co-president Gary Levin. In August 2019, Showtime again postponed the premiere until February 2020; Levin said: Homeland is an ambitious series - especially in its latest season. I don't keep it. Alex (Hansa) wants to come out with pride and this is due to production in several countries at times and in places that have some problems. It just takes time. He added: There were no mistakes. It was a relatively smooth process. But it's a very ambitious production schedule, and it took longer than we expected. Receiving early reviews for the eighth season were generally positive. On Rotten Tomatoes, the season has an 85% approval rating based on 25 reviews, with an average rating of 7.27/10. Critical of the site's consensus, Homeland returns to form with a tautly thrilling final season that fittingly ends the work Carrie Mathison started all those years ago. At Metacritic, the season has a score of 71 out of 100 based on 10 critics, showing generally favorable reviews. Robert Roark of the New York Post wrote: The first three episodes are a bit awkward, with Carrie's familiar model alienated by almost everyone she meets, kicking again - and then comes Episode 4, and Homeland finds its groove. IndieWire's Ben Travers praised him for B and praised the performances of Claire Danes and Mandy Patinkin, as well as directed by Leslie Linda Glatter for for her beautifully staged and tensely abbreviated action sequences.
