TV show description:
This period drama takes place in the early 1980s, shortly after Ronald Reagan was elected President.
Philip (Matthew Rhys) and Elizabeth Jennings (Keri Russell) are a pair of KGB spies who live in a suburb of Washington DC. They are married and have two children — 13-year-old Paige (Holly Taylor) and 10-year-old Henry (Keidrich Sellati) — who have no idea about their parents’ secret identities.
Philip and Elizabeth are in an arranged marriage but it’s become more passionate and genuine as time has passed. Their relationship however is constantly tested — by the escalation of the Cold War and the relationships they must maintain with a network of spies and informants under their control.
Complicating their relationship even further is Philip’s growing sense of affinity for America’s values and way of life.
Tensions also heighten upon the arrival of a new neighbor, Stan Beeman (Noah Emmerich), an FBI agent. Stan and his partner, Agent Chris Amador (Maximiliano Hernández), are members of a new division of Counterintelligence that’s tasked with fighting against foreign agents on US soil — including KGB Directorate S illegals (Russian spies posing as Americans).
Episode #75 — Start
The Jennings face a choice that will change their lives forever.

What do you think? Do you like The Americans TV series? Do you think it should have ended or been renewed for a seventh season?
Have watched thevAmericans since it began and I love it. Don’t cancel!
Enjoy the series keep it coming. Don’t retire the series.
Enough of Paige already. It’s gone from an intriguing spy show to a forelorne team angst program. Who cares.
Great show, always look forward to watching. Great show to discuss with others. Pls. renew
The show gets dumber and dumber with each season and each episode. What is and Elizabeth and Phillip’s body count now. They make no mistakes and those stupid wigs, gag . In split seconds they are in Topeka and have developed sources. Un f-ing believable. Bring this show to a quick end. Oh and Stan the FBI agent is dumber than a bucket of nails. This grain plot is also not even from history. How much longer can the writers drag out this stale story. CANCEL IT NOW PLEASE !!!
Change the channel. Some of us love the show!
Great show gets better and better
This is a great show! I hope it continues thru this season and next (as advertised previous). Now, with the Russian news about the Donald, it is more relevant than ever.
Of course I like it, have watched every episode, so hope it isn’t cancelled.
I love it
Great show – superior story line, writing and acting.
Would love to see more episodes coming. Not too much worth watching out there. Too bad our cable company only ONE past episode to watch :0
Cindy, if you don’t like, why you watch? I imagine you do in order to have such a strong opinion
Keep it coming. Its one of the best shows on TV
It is great should not be cancelled…
This is extremely interesting & quite realistic. I look forward to this show more than any other. Bring it on soon & often.
This is one of the best shows on TV. My husband & I watch it faithfully when it is on. My husband is very particular about what he views.
I really hope it gets cancelled for all of it’s American anti bias.
It mirrors history; things like this really happened and probably still do.
