The Americans

[User135644]

Okay, so i've just started watching Season 2.

Quite enjoyed the first season and was hoping i'd get more into it, but i've quickly got fed up with it. For all the potential of the show, for one thing i'm really fed up of the pointless and tacky, noisy sex scenes which just pop in from nowhere every episode which often add nothing to the plot and are just there for titillation.

Is this show worth sticking with?

I've watched loads of good television but this is my favourite.

I agree with @QuibbleTribble that Margot Martindale, who is always good, is amazing in this. Also agree about Martha, fantastic acting - she can be hilariously funny and also so, so sad.

I love the fact that so many of the characters have such depth and development and there was a proper ending, I also felt bereft when I finished it.

Margot touched me when she was in dead man walking especially ❤️ Justified (she was not so nice but still brilliant) and Dexter, she’s lovely

Margot Martindale was indeed fantastic, as was the actress who played Martha. Watched a brilliant series on Amazon ca!led sneaky pete. Both actresses were in it. Highly recommended!
