Americans

blugill · 02-02-2013, 09:55 AM

Anyone catching Americans on FX?
Honestly I really thought it was a alternate history show and not one that takes place in 1981.

I haven't watched it yet but I'm DVR'ing the season, that's the only way to roll!

I really liked the pilot episode. I am excited about this show. I hope it stays this good.

cricky101 · 02-02-2013, 01:14 PM

I liked it too. It will be interesting to see where it goes as the series progresses.

jonumberone · 02-02-2013, 01:48 PM

I have it on the DVR.
Just need to carve out the hour + to watch it.

I heard about this one on NPR and my ears perked up, sounds right up my alley. Sometimes I miss having cable

With a Roku or a Wifi TV and a few subscriptions cable will eventually go the way of My Space. I could see individual channels offering subscription packages soon with On Demand services. It's interesting to see what will happen and what technology brings.

I'm sure whatever they figure out, they'll still find an excuse to charge me an arm and a leg. $7 bucks a month for n*tflix is enough for me.

The girl looks like the real spy the series is based upon.

I hope none of you guys like it too much. Any show I start watching and get into is guaranteed to get cancelled. You have been warned.

Great acting.
I actually hate the couple who play the moles.

Gabe215 · 02-04-2013, 03:58 PM

I set up a series DVR for it, watched the first episode thought it was good will have to watch a few more episodes to give it a final opinion.

I watched the pilot yesterday, very interesting show... the writing was done very well and I think if the future episodes continue with at quality FX might really have something here...

dc_glidden · 02-06-2013, 08:02 PM

I saw the pilot, shall watch a few more down the road for sure.

Blak Smyth · 02-07-2013, 05:22 AM

Finally watched the premier. It was good, we will have to see where it goes from here.
