 Season 6 trailer - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zIn_MH8_2ig 3 years later... Season 6, 1987. Website | Twitter | Facebook | Wikipedia | IMDB | Past TVIV Threads: S2, S3, S4, S5 Synopsis posted:The Americans is a period drama set during the Cold War shortly after Ronald Reagan is elected President and is about the complex marriage of two deep cover KGB spies posing as an American married couple living in the northern Virginia suburbs of Washington D.C.. The arranged marriage of Philip (Matthew Rhys) and Elizabeth Jennings (Keri Russell), who have two children – Paige (Holly Taylor) and Henry (Keidrich Sellati), who know nothing about their parents’ true identity – grows more passionate and genuine by the day, but is constantly tested by the escalation of the Cold War and the intimate and dangerous relationships they must maintain with a network of spies and informants under their control while avoiding being caught by FBI counterintelligence. ★ Creators ★ The series was created by novelist Joe Weisberg (a former CIA officer) working under the tutelage of Graham Yost (Justified, The Pacific). quote:"The most interesting thing I observed during my time at the CIA was the family life of agents who served abroad with kids and spouses. The reality is that mostly they're just people going about their lives. The job is one element, and trying to depict the issues they face just seemed like something that, if we could bring it to television in a realistic way, would be new."

Did you know that originally the mail robot was pulled along with fishing wire, but for the recent seasons they actually turned it into a giant RC car with a controller and working drive wheels. I am glad they have invested so much into this central character.

He'll never be the head of the airforce. I loved the intercept the courier in the airport toilet bit of spywork. We can't open this diplomatic pouch without it being detected... so we'll just x-ray it through a toilet stall instead.

Keyser_Soze posted:Phil needs to layoff some people and lease out the extra space or move the office to some suburban strip mall. If he makes it past 1992 he can start quoting "ALWAYS BE CLOSING" type motiviations to his staff. Episode 1 of this season had the wolf of wallstreet poster where Phillip had parked his car. I'm sure he is all about the cash phrases.

This episode was great, everything is falling into place for the home stretch. Phil is going into dark dad mode, after almost coming on board to the good old spycraft when Elizabeth used sex (for the first time in months) to get him on board with Operation Kimmy he then turned around and doesn't want anything like that for Paige.Gelf posted:Do you think we will ever see Martha again? Nope. We saw her looking at the cute little kid to adopt. End of story (unless they covered post collapse of the USSR but they won't)

Henry is going to ask about something benign (scolarship) and she will snap and go all stalin on him, berating how good he has it in this capatalistic world and how she had to fight just to live to see another day. Henry will then go tell Stan and be adopted by Stan. Edit: https://twitter.com/FBImailrobot/status/991884472667652096 drunkill fucked around with this message at 10:07 on May 3, 2018 |

GobiasIndustries posted:not that I'm gonna go back and look it all up but I'd be curious to see what the mean and mode kill counts per season (and I guess per Liz/Phil) are. It definitely feels like more than usual. Kill Count As of end of Season 4 - Phillip: 14 Elizabeth: 9 Both: 1. Total Killings Depicted: 53 Yeah, even with a slower S5 not factored into those numbers Elizabeth is just going wild with the bodycount this season.

canyoneer posted:Phillip and Elizabeth come home, but a light was left on. They cautiously enter the house, and a voice from the darkness says "well, well, well..." as Pastor Tim spins around in his recliner. He pulls off his dumb hair to reveal it was actually a wig the whole time No other than Hollywood actor, Ronald Reagan. CBJSprague24 posted:I've been saying for 3 years now that, assuming she survives, I want some sort of a flash forward to the fall of the Berlin Wall or the end of the Soviet Union and Elizabeth's reaction. Fade to black as Back in the USSR by The Beatles plays over the credits.

wow, this is how it ends?! Matthew Rhys directs Noah Emmerich during a scene from episode 2 of this season. Or Phillip is just infiltrating the FBI via a guided tour from Stan. Still looks weird though.

I liked it. It wasn't an overly dramatic ending (except the reveal to stan) and it served well as an end to the show after 6 years. The only problem I had is the fact that Paige should have been bawling her eyes out from the moment they got into the car and drove past Stan all the way to the McDonalds, unable to say goodbye to Henry because she was crying.

BIG HEADLINE posted:Yeah, if I were in Stan's shoes in that garage, I'd have made the price for letting them go that either Phil or Liz stayed behind. I am sort of surprised he didn't just eat his gun right there.

Mameluke posted:Paige doesn't have to be involved. She got back to DC undetected by herself from directly beside the Canadian border in upstate NY. Even when she's caught she's probably resourceful enough to get out of being caught for doing anything. With zero cash, given that Elizabeth took it while they were burying their possessions.

Some of the notable deaths in the show: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGrnq31SPYA It is nowhere near the full list, but man, this show was brutal. EL BROMANCE posted:I feel the Stan and Henry spinoff should be called ‘Beeman and Son*’. Maybe they could become PIs in a multicam sitcom. Featuring Mail Robot, of course. The mail robot is the chief and hands out the casefiles.

Keri Russel has been cast in episode 9 of starwars, I doubt she'll be folding rebels into suitcases though.
