United States of Al‘s Season 2 trailer is not for the faint of heart.
CBS on Thursday dropped a preview for the dramatic season opener airing Thursday, Oct. 7 (at 8:30/7:30c) — 20 years to the day after the initial invasion of Afghanistan. Per CBS, the premiere sees Al, Riley, Art, Lizzie and Vanessa “work together against a ticking clock to get Al’s sister out of Afghanistan and to safety after Kabul falls” — a story that was inspired by the actual experiences of the Afghan and military veteran writers on the series who worked together to evacuate family members during the takeover of Afghanistan.

CBS’ United States of Al sitcom will open its sophomore run with a “powerful” reaction to the unfolding events in Afghanistan, where in the wake of U.S. troop withdrawals the Taliban military organization has taken over.
United States of Al, which bowed in April, focuses on the friendship between Riley (played by Enlisted‘s Parker Young), a Marine combat veteran struggling to readjust to civilian life in Ohio, and Awalmir aka “Al” (Rules of Engagement‘s Adhir Kalyan), the interpreter who served with his unit in Afghanistan and has just arrived to start a new life in America.

This Sunday, the final season of “Homeland” will finally arrive. Stars Claire Danes and Mandy Patinkin, showrunner Alex Gansa, and a lucky hundred or so of the rest of us got to see it Tuesday at the world premiere, which was held at New York City’s Museum of Modern Art (MoMA).
The after-party played out at the Lobster Club, a few long city blocks over. For a “Homeland” fan, the evening was about as good as Tuesdays get. For so many former “Homeland” stars, it was a homecoming.
Below are a few of our non-spoilery takeaways from the nice-enough February night in Manhattan.

Hey MoMA? Yeah, Couple of Notes
It’s very expensive to park by you. Honestly, that’s on us though. You seem to have a ton of different entrances on 53rd St.

Well that review was short.
It was more Fake News from the liberals.
