      The Americans. Wow, that was hard to watch last night. If it were a lesser show, the suitcase scene might push me to stop watching.

        This is pretty close to needing a spoiler tag, UVAC!

            Apparently one episode shows Keri Russell getting her a*****e tattooed, so it's got that going for it. I would recommend it, even though I haven't watched it.

              Yes, I would recommend it. Probably my favorite show on T.V. right now. You really need to watch from the beginning though to understand what is going on. The first season was just good, but season 2 and the first two episodes of season 3 have been great.

              It's not a show for everyone though. It is a bit slow-burning and about 15-20% of it is in Russian with subtitles.

                There is plenty of Keri Russell ass. It's a great show, not just for that reason.

                I love the Russian language in it -- really accurate and clear Russian is spoken quite a bit by native Russian speakers. The 80s music, cars, politics, other 80s references are fun too.

                I keep thinking how much of the spy stuff they do just wouldn't work in the Internet and cell phone era -- those were the days when nobody could look up your picture or track you down on your phone -- much easier for men to maintain multiple identities, multiple wives/girlfriends who didn't know the other women existed. I guess I missed out.

                    I don't think I get that channel, but it looks interesting. My go-to critic, seemed to think it was worth checking out.http://www.npr.org/2015/02/10/385239...of-green-acres

                      Piney, go to the bottom of the page and enter your zip code. See if you actually do get that channel.

                          273 on DTV. I love Levy and hadn't even heard of this. I'll surely check it out.

                            I think PopTV used to be the TV Guide channel.

                            Metacritic puts Shits Creek at 62 which isn't bad for a new show. Really good new shows will get over 70 and the following seasons will score in the high 80s and into the 90a.
                            Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”

                              I watched the first 3 episodes on the bus this morning up to Mammoth mountain. I really liked the third episode, some stuff that made me laugh.
                              I will at least watch the remaining three episodes that have already aired in Canada.

                                You guys suckered me into "checking it out." My disappointment was as large as how much I like BCS.
