In this COVID-19 induced streaming marathon, My wife and I are 2/3rd the way through "The Americans" on Amazon Prime. For those not familiar with it, it is a cold war spy drama set in 1980's Washing DC, with a pair of KGB spies living as "Americans" in suburban Virginia, being parents during the day, and spies at night. Six seasons, with multiple awards when it was live on FX. Highly recommended.

I made it all the way through the middle of the 5th season before we got distracted by other shows. It slowed a little and just came to a halt. I’ll have to put this one back into the rotation.

The 5th season was the slowest. Season 6 ends with a bang, with Elizabeth killing more people in one season than Tony Soprano did in the entire show! :lol:
