Ill admit I have slacked off... Watched the first two, caught second half of the 3rd, and completely missed last weeks...

Still good?

Man, they are really being asked to do a lot of crap

I guess this is more of a necessity for the narrative than sticking with what is realistically possible

Here's a look at how a real KGB spy network in the US worked. Stunning successes along with amateurish blunders, high stress, and problems with inept and/or lazy operatives.

Elizabeth takes 20 lashes like it was nothing, pulls a Catwoman maneuver into a trunk then calmly drops a poor old guy she just had a pleasant conversation with days prior with a head shot.

She's scary good at her job.

If they make it that far, Philip's going to adapt nicely to the breakup of the Soviet Union and transitioning to being a real American instead of just a pretend one. Elizabeth...I don't know.

We know they'll do just about anything to accomplish the mission. Would they sacrifice their kids?

The Americans is an awesome series. I was hoping that Elizabeth would let Phillip go beast mode on that dude that beat her with the belt. I would have loved to see him put the mustache on for that guy.

The acting is really good. The relationship between the FBI agent and his mole is well done. Plus, that commie is really sexy.
