A provocative dramatic series set in the 1980s when the Cold War was at its height, The Americans certainly makes for some riveting television. Compelling lead characters, American in every sense except they’re actually Russian spies, carry us through thirteen episodes of tension-filled domestic espionage with not only the fate of nations at stake but also the lives of many innocents unaware of whom and what they’re dealing with. It’s one of those series that grows as the episodes progress, sinking its hooks into you until you’re thoroughly on board and anxious to see what happens next.
