From TV Guide Magazine:

Cheers to Morena Baccarin for proving she’s flesh and blood on Homeland.

The Brazilian-born actress is best known for her role as alien queen Anna on ABC’s short-lived sci-fi remake V. That makes her down-to-earth work as Jessica, the morally conflicted wife of tortured ex-POW Nicholas Brody (Damian Lewis) on Showtime’s anti-terrorism drama all the more refreshing. As Jessica deals with her husband’s PTSD — and grapples with the affair she had with his best friend after she assumed he was dead — Baccarin gives an emotionally (and sometimes physically) naked performance.

She’s not the only Homeland costar showing off a new side: Claire Danes displays an impressive toughness as a CIA agent whose obsession with exposing Brody as a sleeper borders on insanity, and Mandy Patinkin is admirably restrained as her wary mentor. Thanks to such a stellar ensemble, Homeland is truly out-of-this-world.

What do you think Homeland — and Morena Baccarin?

According to TVLine, Morena will be returning to The Mentalist this season!

Get ready to see Jane squirm.

Former V sextra-terrestrial Morena Baccarin is returning to The Mentalist later this season to set off a new round of sparks with leading man Simon Baker, TVLine has learned exclusively.

Baccarin’s character, professional matchmaker Erica Flynn, was last seen heading to jail after being arrested for her complicity in a murder. Executive producer Bruno Heller declined to reveal the circumstances surrounding the character’s comeback, except to say that it marks ”the return of one of the few people who can mess with Jane’s mind.”

News of Baccarin’s Mentalist encore comes as the Firefly actress gears up for Sunday’s premiere of her extremely well-received new Showtime thriller Homeland.

Showtime has uploaded the premiere episode of Homeland to their YouTube page. If you would like to watch it, you can do so here. Beware of any spoilers in comments, etc.

On Friday, Morena attended The Frye Company’s Flagship Opening Ceremony. A few photos have been added. Also, new Homeland stills have been added.
