Re: The Americans
I was late to the party on this one but holy shit, this show is great. So many layers and great scenes. I finished season 4 a few weeks ago and am still loving it. Most of the characters are well done as well - mainly Phillip, Elizabeth, Stan and Gad. Also love the way they worked real history into this one and did not just make shit up. It is strange though, sometimes I find myself torn between rooting for the Russians or the Americans because the Russian characters are so good. So looking FWD to the 5th season to see how the rest plays out.
SPOILER ALERT:
Hope they'd dump annoying Martha all together, she is an awful character - ditto with Stan's wackjob wife. Sucks they wrote out Oleg, killed off Neena, killed off Gad and appear to have written out Arkady - all of them were damn good characters.
