The Americans (FX) - Season 5

[atribecalledgabi]

Yea I never seen walking dead so I didn't know who she was til I seen ppl talking about it. Idk if she's Russian cuz that would be too easy if phil caught on that quick. I think it's something else.

But whatever it is yea I'm with it

 

[atribecalledgabi]

They talking they sweet time with this season....ep was kinda boring again but I don't mind it with this show. Next episode looks like shot will get poppin

 

[marc123]

Ohhhhhhhh shit!!!

"Paige! you better come on in." lol

Really!?

I dug the ep. And i've liked this season.

You can tell they are setting up some huge conflict. And also beginning the slow road to the end of the series.

Phillip aint bout this life

 

[marc123]

Paige finally told Matthew to kick rocks.

smh. After all that Gabriel gone tell Philip its better to keep Paige outta the loop.

Phil knows Gabriel is lyin about Stans new broad bein a spy

Gabriel was kinda talkin outa both sides of his mouth. He tells Elizabeth how good Paige is then he tells Philip to keep her out of it.

Yea now Philip thinking all his suspicions are right.

 

[atribecalledgabi]

Maaaan this season is the slowest of burns. But I'm still hooked. It was a good episode even with no "action." The payoff gon be amazing when everything finally comes to a head.

Granny back so hopefully that means more danger for p&e...but she's tryna be softer on them now so who knows.

And when Elizabeth was training Paige they still had the hole in the drywall from when Elizabeth kicked ol boy through it in the first season.

 

[marc123]

Yea. Meh episode. Even for a stan like me. I was actually bored.

I do wonder how olegs story fits into the end....i wouldn't have let those dudes search my place tho.

 

[marc123]

They made up for last week.

...all the call backs. Martha, Nina, the young broad phil is smashin, stans old bosses wife. Damn @ stan not gettin the answer he expected. Ole girl out for blood.

Stuff with Twan was interesting.

 

[atribecalledgabi]

Martha was not with the shits.

Oleg is over it.

Elizabeth getting soft believing Tuan so easily.

Henry either getting his exit out the show or he's taking over the family spy business not Paige.

 

[marc123]

Yea, some ppl on online think henry is leaving the show

 

[atribecalledgabi]

It would make sense. he barely got any screen time cuz any kid storyline went to Paige. I used to think it was funny cuz he would pop up for random shit like doing an Eddie Murphy impersonation outa nowhere. But I can't help but think them building up that he's actually smart and better in control of himself than Paige probly ever will be has to have a purpose.

Man, The Americans feels like homework now, smh. I struggle to finish episodes now. Its like they are saving all the good stuff for the final season next year.

 

[marc123]

The whole Paige meeting Gabriel fell flat imo

 

[atribecalledgabi]

Man, The Americans feels like homework now, smh. I struggle to finish episodes now. Its like they are saving all the good stuff for the final season next year.

Or the last 3 eps.

This season slow as fuuuuuck. The writers said a while back how real spycraft is actually really boring and you hit a lot of dead ends more often than not and they were gonna work that into the show...but it still feels like not much has happened even tho quite a bit has happened. I wish there some action to balance it out. Like can we get a car chase or a fight or something.

When home girl dumped Philip for being too passive and weak, i was like "This is the perfect metaphor for the season"

 

[fortyacres]

this season kinda trash

 

[atribecalledgabi]

Great episode. The wedding was dope. Hopefully that means p&e will ride it out to the end together.

The end scene with Paige and her parents in the darkroom was loaded. It coulda went either way with her showing her parents what they did to her cuz she couldn't say it or she could be moving toward taking her parents' side cuz pastor tim out here showing fake love to ppl.

 

[atribecalledgabi]

Did not expect Elizabeth to wana be done. I'm surprised I didn't catch it cuz it was so easy. They been setting up Philip as the one who mentally checked out the game a long time ago and Elizabeth is the hard ass that was gon ride or die for russia. I shoulda seen the misdirection there.
