#Allegiance What are your communication protocols? Looks like a burner phone...

#Allegiance Were they born in Russia or the United States? Moles or plants?

#Allegiance I want some wig action or I know they're not real spies...

#Allegiance What I like about the Americans is that it seems realistic. But burned alive? OK they did that in the 50s...that I believe.

#Allegiance Okay so they're called the "SVR" now. Not the KGB. Teevee is my edumacion...

#Allegiance Looks like a big rip off of #TheAmericans but it answers an interesting question: What are the evil Russians doing now?

Like the intensity of the first scene. It's Blacklist dark, which is almost FX dark...

#TheBlacklist I think Ron is dead but I'm not sure. So that's three dead...is the David Strathairn part coming to an end?

#TheBlacklist Is Red her father? Or just someone he takes an intense interest in...

#TheBlacklist Okay that's two down. I had a bet on four...Ron's dead right?

#Blacklist Who or what's a Hinkle? Did he kill the driver? I predicted four murders this episode and so far all I've got is punching...

Sigh. I wish I could visit Belgrade. There's always Google Earth I guess and Anthony Bourdain I guess..

#TheBlacklist What a violent Metrosexual. Well at least he didn't kill him...I think.

#TheBlacklist Well I hope the world's most sinister effete and cultural super villain kills at least four people this episode...

Missed the first ten minutes...how did he survive the bombing?

#TheAmericans That's a cool secret camera Philip has...

#TheAmericans I read the newspapers too back then and that's an accurate story. Reagan always tried to cut college funding...

...Tip O Neill and the Dems always put it back but there were some cuts.

#TheAmericans Soviet Russia is the New Orange is the New Black.

#TheAmericans "They're good with disguises." Well tlhey have a whole Soviet makeup team that follows Philip and Elizabeth around...

Seriously. That has to be it...

#TheAmericans Oh gawd the most disturbing part of this show: Beeman's dead marriage...bring back the body folding.

Body folding I can handle. This slow motion divorce stuff seems very painful.

#TheAmericans Break the bones for easy folding of the body? That's nice.

Always good to learn something useful like how to fold a murdered person into a suitcase. Just in case I turn into a crazy murderer...or a patriot serving my country.

#TheAmericans Who was the lady in the box?

#TheAmericans So they do their own cleaning? Where's Harvey Keitel?

Philip and Elizabeth are overworked.

#TheAmericans Just tell Paige you're not worried about the second wife...

Or third wife. Or the really good fellatio from that dead chick. Or that you might occasionally have to go lesbo for Mother Russia

#TheAmericans Jeez. We're still dealing with her beautiful body...Who are the Russian cleaners?

#TheAmericans Wait, didn't they steal this idea from #Allegiance?

Somebody should sue...

#TheAmericans Welp you gotta turn strangled love trap lemons into opportunistic lemonade...

"Hey I can help!" He seems real broken up about it...On the other hand, he was getting laid way too much....

#TheAmericans Hey sex with the second fake wife requires some athletic stamina...

And was she standing and carrying him? Pretty sure I did that once when I was young and strong...and even then I got tired...

#TheAmericans No translation of the Russian? Oh well parallel PS certainly knows Russian he said in his fantasy head...

Elizabeth seems to be sad...I can only go by her response.

#TheAmericans Yeah everybody should get out of Afghanistan. Come on....

#TheAmericans Frank Langella makes an appearance or Heavy Actor Watch

New Handler? I miss Granny Goodness....

#TheAmericans Would Elizabeth go lesbian for Mother Russia?

I'll watch I guess...but she's not a gorgeous lesbian so I don't know. I'll still watch...

#TheAmericans Or is it Allegiance. Can't quite remember...

Looking forward to yet another dark FX show.
