"Homeland", a
thriller series about a person who returns to the US after eight years after
going missing in Iraq and the resulting suspecting eye from an intelligence
officer, won the Golden Globe award for the best TV drama on Sunday.
Basically Homeland is
a drama/thriller series developed for American television by Howard Gordan and Alex Gansa and based on the Israeli series Hatufim
(English translation: Kidnapped) created by Gideon Raff. The series stars Claire Danes as Carrie Mathison, a Central Intelligence Agency officer who has come to believe that
an American Marine, who was held captive by Al-Qaeda as a prisoner of war, was turned by
the enemy and now threatens the United States.
The series is broadcast in the United States on the cable channel Showtime and is produced by Fox-21. It premiered on October 2,
2011. The first episode was made available online, more than two weeks before
broadcast, with viewers having to complete some tasks to unlock access.
The show was nominated for the award along with "American Horror Story", "Boardwalk Empire, "xBoss" and "Game of Thrones".
After receiving such
critical acclaim in 1st season, the team has decided to start their
next season in the spring of 2012. The viewers are waiting for that eagerly.
