The Americans thread
Finally though Alison Wright(Martha) should have been nominated for best Supporting Actress
Also Margo Martindale was nominated
Best show right now it's so good.

I was so glad she wasn't gone for good. Favorite character.

Once she married "Clark" I felt worse and worse for her. She was smart and sweet and her only crime was being lonely.Now she has to live in Moscow for only 9 years before the USSR's collapse and then through the post-soviet mess. She's still there guys. She's there now.

Pretty sure Elizabeth straight up hates her children at this point.

After all, last year they gave the worst season of Thrones an Emmy, so I'm not exactly reassured.

It has no chance in hell of winning outstanding series.
>>71982329
Not that anon, but while lesser assets would be killed, I really doubt they'd betray Phillip like that.
>>71981646
After season 1: Same shit, different day.
>>71982444
Well Tatina and Oleg were talking about transporting a bioweapon and failed to mention Martha so either they killed her or the bioweapon did.
>>71982296
That's one of my favorite things about her character.
She loves her kids, but hates, ABSOLUTELY HATES how "soft" the US has made them in her eyes. To her they don't understand duty or hard work like Philip's factory job when he was a kid or Elizabeth having to care for her mother when she was sick. She spent her whole adult life in control of her emotions to get the job done only to have her daughter refuse to do babies-first-recon-mission because of "she can't control how she feels". A mission, mind you, they wouldn't even need Paige to do if she hadn't blabbed in the first place.
I love that she snapped at her there. One of the best scenes in the show.
Please give Rhys capitalist award..that feel when he won't be the next Wolverine though he'd be perfect

You get highlights of most of the events during the 80s, fear of the Star Wars program, Russia invading Afghanistan, the fact that Philip and Elizabeth blackmail civilians to get information, the US sabotages information on one of their subs and let it be stolen so that when the Russians build it there's a catastrophic failure that costs the lives of hundreds, the FBI also blackmails people into helping them catch 'the illegals', USA developing chemicals weapons in secret etc etc

never use imdb for the score
use it, however, for the number of votes
if it has at least 50,000 number of votes, you should consider watching it (tread lightly with basic cable shows)
if it has like 10,00 votes or even less, see from what networks is that show. if it's from the basic cable, don't watch it. if it's from premium etc if it's interests you, you should watch it
that is of course, we're talking about new shows. Older from the 90s, 80s don't count
after SoA, FX is lacking any popular shows (except AHS & Fargo) Nobody watches Americans, Tyrant, barely anyone watches The Strain aka "the shitty version of TWD". American Crime Story has yet to prove if it's gonna be popular. X-men upcoming capeshit show doesn't look promising, I'm so fucking scared of Y The Last man show either it will be the best thing, feminazi shit, or mediocre tier like the Strain.
Mayans MC is what will get FX the money, I hope it's set in present time, and it's not a fucking prequel. I hope sutter learned that it's a bad idea, and nobody would gave a shit. It would be fucking nice to see what happened to the SoA remaining characters from time to time.
>>71988252
y-you didnt mention Justified
>>71988785
but justified ended, why would I mention it?
And Justified was not really popular, it was basically as popular as The Amercians are right now. Good show tho
>>71982678
What, when was that exactly?
>>71989173
The episode when Martha was running around town like a headless chicken.
Seriously, Why are more people not watching this show?
>>71989370
Because they're American'ts, not Americans
>>71982678
I don't know if i'd make that leap though just because they didnt bring up this ultimately inconsequential woman when talking about an enormously dangerous weapon. Plus they're on different clearance levels, i forget if that matters in this case, but it has on others obviously.Maybe I just don't wanna believe it, she was pure, she loved him.
>>71989370
too many plebs
>>71989418
I thought we turned the Paige on puns.
>>71989370
because it's on FX is one reason, and general audiences wanna tune into entertainment, not art and nuance and acting. So they market it as pic related, a sexy swinging good time and it's slow, and dark, and gripping if you've been paying attention, but not really casual.

Can you imagine having lived during Staline's time and WW2, like her parents?

>>71990320
>elizabeth loves philip
She's such a complex character and this goes to the center of complexity. I see her as having come to love him with that being part of the arc of season one. But love makes her vulnerable, divides her loyalties, complicates decision-making. So she doesn't want or let herself be swept away in a romance; plus, she's older, pragmatic, managing responsibilities, etc. And she's not demonstrative in her affections. She clearly loves her children, but you don't hear her say "i love you' to them either.
But for me, when she said "come home" in season 1 or became jealous of Martha or broke down a little (for her) at the thought Philip would leave her or avoided hurting Martha to avoid hurting Philip, I think it was love. When she went to EST to try to understand him and worried that he wasn't eating/sleeping, that was love. And when they share intimate moments of caring for each other, I think that's a deep and mature kind of love that's not about quivering desire (though we saw some of that in earlier seasons) but about deep partnership and trust mixed with affection and regard for the well-being of the other person.
"A good marriage means different things to people from different backgrounds". I think for Elizabeth the expectation of a life filled with what we might call romantic love would seem frivolous and silly.
Damn I love this show

It really is a show revolving around the relation of the two main characters, like Hannibal is.
Most importantly, the writing feels like the writers plan out very clearly how every character is feeling, then let their stories and behaviours flow naturally from there. It's amazing that so much much that previously seemed like idle banter, or filler, actually leads to where the characters were heading all along.
The Americans flows smoothly. It's safe to invest in the characters because they're not gonna be cut up like a paper snowflake later on just to accomplish one nifty scene.

it was weird because up to that point, the series felt pretty grounded in reality and then it just became silly.
