Did anyone watch the fx tv show "The Americans"?

[boston bean]

I watched from finish to start. Ms. Butina could have been one of the characters.

Catch it on VOD if you can. Last and final season was just a couple of months ago.

Good show.

1. I agree. It was great... I was sorry to see it end, but it was well done.

2. isn't FBI agent Peter Strzok

responsible for catching the real life Russian spies that inspired the show?

[mcar]

14. Yes, I read that last week

Art imitating life, for sure.

15. +1, one of the reasons the Russians in congress hate him

[pnwest]

3. I'm bingeing the whole series right now on Amazon Prime...

...great show. Too many of today's clowns could be characters on that show.

4. Omg, yes! It was based on a true story, too.

[Funtatlaguy]

5. Yes. Great series

Kerri Russell deserves an Emmy.

[Dave Starsky]

7. The whole cast was just amazing.

You find yourself rooting for the spies AND the FBI agents. How cool is that?

[Dave Starsky]

6. It was my wife's and my favorite show.

Never had a bad season. It was just terrific from start to finish. Even the ending was great.

It really captured what it was like to live in the Reagan era.

And yes, Ms. Butina would have definitely set off Stan Beeman's alarm bells.

8. Hell, Stan could have married her!

[Dave Starsky]

9. I think even Stan would have been hip...

To Ms. Butina. Malcolm Nance even talks about her in his book.

19. Precisley. nt

10. One of the best shows ever

We'll miss it. The finale was sooo good, though.

[Funtatlaguy]

11. The garage scene where Stan had to choose

was amazing.

[mcar]

13. I think it was the best TV drama scene I've ever watched

Both actors were amazing.

[CurtEastPoint]

16. It was. I was on the edge of my seat. Literally!

[mcar]

17. You just didn't know what was going to happen

And the honesty, finally, was devastating.

[TrishaJ]

12. I did.

Terrific series, and took on new meaning for me after the 2016 election.

[LAS14]

18. I think Elizabeth and Phillip were a lot smarter and more complex than Ms. Butina.

Yes, very good show.
