Shows that feel likeHomeland (2011–2020)
If you loved Homeland, the closest series we have are Bodyguard (2018), Mr. Robot (2015) and Designated Survivor (2016). All three share Homeland's paranoid feel, which is what we rank on before quality.
Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Shooter (2016).
If Homeland hit the spot, these will too

Constant suspicion between two people who cannot afford to trust
The difference: Six taut British episodes, over before the paranoia can settle in

A brilliant, unwell lead you can never fully trust to be right
The difference: Hacker paranoia and formal trickery, stranger and far more stylised

Washington scrambling after an attack, with plots inside the walls
The difference: Broader and more hopeful — decency wins where Homeland corrodes

An investigator whose gift for reading danger keeps damaging them
The difference: Ornate, dreamlike horror in place of geopolitics and surveillance

An expert operator pulled back in by a conspiracy nobody believes
The difference: Action-forward and much simpler

Institutions failing while the danger sits in plain sight
The difference: A true-crime limited series about one killer, grim and airless

A gifted investigator whose demons are the price of the gift
The difference: London murder cases in short bursts, personal rather than geopolitical

Gritty and paranoid in the same breath
The difference: Trades the stillness of Homeland for an angle of its own

A specialist whose instincts are right when the institution is wrong
The difference: Physical crime cases, and no politics

A brilliant woman whose damage is inseparable from her work
The difference: Southern crime drama, slow and interior

Wiretaps, surveillance and bureaucracies that devour their own people
The difference: Sociological and cool-headed, with no unravelling mind at the centre

A composed woman running a hunt while everything around her frays
The difference: A Belfast manhunt, cold and slow, with no politics anywhere in it
