Kerri Russell’s role of a lifetime, and everyone is excellent. Also especially the Russians (diplomatic type folks) who speak in Russian, so you have to remember to read the subtitles and don’t keep playing Candy Crush, or whatever!
“The Americans” was a great show.
The Americans was one of the best ever!!!
“...and don’t keep playing Candy Crush...”

24 was great. I looked forward each week to Jack Bauer’s opening statement: “Previously on 24 ...”
