— Philadelphia Inquirer (100/100) : You don't get this sort of stylish and challenging stuff very frequently on TV. An adult subject matter treated maturely in a series that makes you squirm and think.— Wall Street Journal (100/100) : Once you watch the first episode, it is going to be hard standing the wait for the next.— Time (100/100) : I cannot recommend the series highly enough, particularly for the phenomenal performances by Lewis and Danes.— New York Post (100/100) : Showtime's edgy, edge-of-your-seat series, is the best thriller on TV.— People Weekly (100/100) : A taut, ingenious spy series.— USA Today (100/100) : Danes and Lewis are near-flawless, keeping you off-balance and absorbed.— Uncle Barky (100/100) : It's compelling, enthralling and steeped in current realities.— TV Guide (100/100) : Shows like Homeland have a way of keeping us deliciously off balance. I can't think of a place I would rather be or a show I would more highly recommend.— Boston Globe (100/100) : Of all the drama pilots I watched, this was my favorite.— Newsday (100/100) : Showtime lets them take their time to spin serpentine story lines, gradually pulling us deep into one very sticky, scary web of intrigue.— AOL TV (100/100) : Homeland manages to be both an addictive espionage thriller and well-constructed exploration of the difficulties and ambiguities of fighting terrorism a decade after 9/11. Without a doubt, it is one of the finest new shows of the year.— Los Angeles Times (100/100) : It's a telling of a post-9/11 story that is all the things it should be : politically resonant, emotionally wrenching and plain old thrilling to watch.— San Francisco Chronicle (100/100) : There are a couple of bush-league moments in the show. But those are minor quibbles, made even more insignificant by the extraordinary performances of Danes, Lewis, Patinkin and Baccarin.— Salon (100/100) : Homeland sounds as though it could have been pitched as 'The Manchurian Candidate : The Series'. But set that aside and look at what's on-screen, because it will reward your attention.— Hitfix (91/100) : Homeland functions terrifically as both a thriller and a commentary on our post-post-9/11 world, where the War on Terror and the concept of being constantly under surveillance are both facts of life.— Entertainment Weekly (91/100) : It is the fall season's most intriguing, tense puzzler.— Washington Post (91/100) : Danes's performance as Carrie is stellar, easily this season's strongest female character, who is also hiding some personal secrets of her own. The latter half of the first episode is exhilarating. I am hooked.— Miami Herald (90/100) : Homeland is an absolutely riveting immersion in the paranoia and burnout of America after a decade of the war on terrorism.— The New York Times (90/100) : Carrie is hard to like, but Homeland is almost impossible to resist.— Pittsburgh Post-Gazette (90/100) : Viewers hungering for a twisty-turny, who's-right-who's-wrong thriller will find it in Showtime's domestic terrorism drama Homeland.— PopMatters (80/100) : Unlike their previous show [24], Homeland takes its time. Based on the first episode's strong script and performances, it looks as though the reveal will be worth the wait.— Zap2it (80/100) : We're looking forward to the rest of the season to watch this finely drawn mystery unravel.— New York Daily News (80/100) : Despite living on pay-cable, Homeland also doesn't feel obliged to create explicit moments just because it can. But it's also possible it's just keeping something in reserve, a lot like its compelling characters.— Philadelphia Daily News (80/100) : There is a level of ambiguity Howard Gordon and Alex Gansa might not have gotten away with when they were writing for 24, but it is part of what makes Homeland one of the season's most intriguing dramas.— Variety (80/100) : Like 'The Manchurian Candidate', Homeland does some of its best work via flashbacks to Brody's time in captivity, sprinkling additional tidbits with each glimpse into the past.— Boston Herald (75/100) : What seems like a straightforward question (is Nick a traitor to his country ?) might be the most devilishly complicated thing to answer, and definitely worth pursuing in this complex show.— Slant Magazine (75/100) : When it gets past such clunkiness, Homeland is eerily effective.

Enfin, il y a 2 trucs un peu gros. C'est très bon mais je pense que cet épisode est simplement dans la droite lignée du pilot.
