I love Amazon Prime. I have discovered a new guilty pleasure. The Americans is an FX series, seasons 1 and 2 available on Prime.

The main characters are married KGB agents who have infiltrated American society and live with us during the Reagan years.

Lots of real historical connections, Reagan really drove the Soviets absolutely crazy.

The funny thing is that you actually LIKE the couple and root for them not to get caught so they can "convert" to democracy and defect to the West. They give little signs of internal struggle now and then. I think the husband is ready to make the jump... the wife slow in getting there.

Viewer beware, however. This series has plenty of violence, sex, nudity... it is not suitable for family viewing.

“The main characters are married KGB agents who have infiltrated American society and live with us during the Reagan years.”

One of the most pro-American show on TV. The producers even gave an interview on Breitbart of all places. One of the producers is a good bud of mine here in L.A.

I’ve always found it amusing that Reagan only drove liberals and soviets crazy. One would think that libs are would-be soviets.
