Anyone watch this show? Season 1 is free with Amazon Prime. I watched two episodes last night. They weren't incredible, but the plot has serious potential.

I was really excited when it was first being advertised. Watched the pilot when it originally aired and felt the same as you: great potential but not an amazing episode. It obviously didn't grab me because I never got around to watching episode 2.Originally posted by Green Monstah View Post -
Its been discussed here elsewhere (can't remember where). I watched all of season one. Wasn't the best show on TV, but I did enjoy it. Especially the scenes with Nina in them.Originally posted by Green Monstah View Post
Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

The Americans
Surprised this doesn't have its own thread already. The Americans on FX is kicking ass this season. Best show on TV right now (including Mad Men). Matthew Rhys's performance in last night's episode should put him in competition with Cranston and McConaughey for the Emmy in a just world. That won't happen because the show doesn't have as much buzz. If you aren't watching this yet, you should make time for it.Comment

We've continued to really like the show. We blew through the first season on Netflix and caught up to the current week using "On Demand" on Comcast.
It has what I would consider a lot of nudity and sex scenes in it, so be warned of that, but the plot is really good, and we've been impressed with Carrie Russell and Rhy's performances as well. They frequently dress up as other people so people won't be able to identify them, and they do a great job acting like completely different people.Will donate kidney for B12 membership.Comment

I watched S1 E5 ("Comint") this morning while riding my exercise bike. I had to laugh at when Elizabeth Jennings (Keri Russell) pulled out the FBI's encryption key and made a copy of it using the old clay impression trick. Of course, we are taking about 1980's technology here.
I found most of the other stuff in this show so far very believable, however. I read that the show's creator and one of the writers, Joseph Weisberg, use to work for the CIA and has to have any scripts he wrote approved by the CIA publications review board.Last edited by Uncle Ted; 04-24-2014, 09:35 AM."If there is one thing I am, it's always right." -Ted Nugent.

There's way too much killing and kidnapping going on; that couple are at serial killer levels.Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!
For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.
Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

I think Season 2 is overall better than Season 1, but I'm not sure I'd put this show as the best series on TV at the moment like UVACoug.
It's a solid show worth watching on Amazon Prime and setting the DVR for. The underlying premise is such an awesome idea that I expect the next season and a half will produce exceptional episodes. It's certainly trending that way.Jesus wants me for a sunbeam.

Yeah, in the last one I just watched Elizabeth shot the dude right in the head. The KGB killings are very graphic. The CIA, on the other hand, just sends a drone in to blow things up. That is not as near as messy.Originally posted by myboynoah View Post"If there is one thing I am, it's always right." -Ted Nugent.
