Comrades - February 26, 2014 Season 2 Episode 1 THE AMERICANS
WOW That was intense. Just watched season premier of The Americans on FX. I love this show. Some time has passed. Elizabeth (Keri Russell) has healed from her wounds during Season 1 finale.

MY REVIEW
I do not know of any show that allowed to really get to know the real characters behind the spy work to this depth. Too often we fail to see the faces of the enemy behind the propaganda. Sometimes that is for the best, so we can follow orders as good little soldiers. But here are cold blooded killers just doing their job, trying to live normal lives at the same time.

MY REVIEW
This episode is bad ass!!! The way this couple navigates the world of espionage has me on the edge of my seat. And Matthew Rhys really floors me as an actors. A true chameleon, there are times I do not realize it is him under the disguises. He looks completely different with straight and afro curled hair... But far more than look, he truly becomes these characters. This series pulls no punches in its gritty take on US/USSR relations. At the time this show takes place I lived in the Suburbs of DC, so I certainly relate...
The Americans PILOT Video Preview, Synopsis, Review
The Americans is a period drama about the complex marriage of two KGB spies posing as Americans in suburban Washington D.C. shortly after Ronald Reagan is elected President. The arranged marriage of Philip and Elizabeth Jennings grows more passionate and genuine by the day, but is constantly tested by the escalation of the Cold War. Tensions heighten upon the arrival of a new neighbor, Stan Beeman, an FBI agent.
MY REVIEW
I was hooked from by first commercial break. Edgy, Sexy, Great acting, directing, writing, cast etc etc etc WATCH THIS SHOW!!!
I love the shows that make it very confusing who the good guys and bad guys are. We have protagonists and antagonists on both sides of the political lines.... And as the show progresses I am exited to see which side folks end up...
