The Americans | Final Season
Now it's it's sixth and final year, The American's is 30% complete and the ride is rocky AF!
After a flash forward after the end of season five, we are now another three years forward heading to the 90's. Set in 1987 sees the Jennings family almost complete their Russian spy journey.
When this series started their was no Trump V Russia, election tampering and 1980's series was just a brilliant spy show. Making Red Sparrow look shit, The Americans on FX has set the bar high. It's about to return to Australian screens on Foxtel and it's streaming catch ups.
Paige is getting into the spy game and things between Elizabeth and Philip aren't great.
It's always hard watching a TV series you know will wrap and you want it to go out on a high, I think this series will as it comes home when the US 2017-2018 season is coming to an end. After months of shows on again off again it's great for a show like this to return, play out it's ten episodes, bang, bang, bang and then it's done.
Commencing in 2013, it's been a regular fixture on my TV dance card and I am going to miss it. It's been great giving Keri Russell a role where she could finally bury Felicity and take on a meaty role.
The Americans started in a different time and finishes in a very different USA/Russia period. Will the show be revisited in years to come and look at the cyber issues between the two nations? Time will tell.
