Kind of a weak start tbh. The "whoops im clumsy and got infected" thing felt like it shoulda come from some lovely zombie movie not The Americans. Also yeah 7 minutes watching people dig what was that about. They really needed to pad out their premier that badly?

Not sure whats up with the new guy theyre working on. Hes an advisor on agriculture to the US but seemed like a big nobody back home who could barely get food.

The timed, focused-on panting through the masks by Elizabeth and Philip was kind of forced, too.

That would've been one of the most disturbing things I've ever seen on TV if they'd gone that route and that's a commentary on how far FX is willing to push it in spite of how good their shows are. :stonk:

Whoever brought up the vintage McDonald's boxes was spot on about their attention to detail before.

But then they go and somehow get an (apparently real) IL-18? I mean, most people reading this probably won't know that was a Soviet airliner, but wow, other shows would've tried to pass off a 737 in Aeroflot colors. Not this one. :stare:

The second trailer actually reminded me of the "Don Glover sticks flyers under windshield wipers" trailer (the one linked above I'd forgotten about). If that stretch of a comparison means it's going to be anywhere near as good a show as Atlanta was (and it has a chance given FX puts out good stuff more often than not), it could be a good watch.

The Tuan dynamic is weird to me because P&E have to wear disguises and adopt the airline crew story, but he knows they aren't who they say they are and goes along with them (the faked "I know, 'the Communists did awful things to my country and why would I help them?'" story of his own from one of the first episodes).

It's interesting seeing Philip clearly disillusioned at this point and Elizabeth a bit disturbed with things like being somewhat misled on the wheat strains and apparently straight up lied to about the virus' intended use, but she's still more than willing to sell the company line of "We're doing this to make the world a better place! :ussr:"

Ah, yes, FX and its "Just one episode left until the season finale" bullshit. Can't wait for my dad to text tomorrow asking if there are one or two episodes left this season.

I don't normally watch the preview but Claudia's reaction to "We'd like to go home now" is going to be good.

Episode was real good. I'm glad this show has had such a strong plot for 5 seasons. So many shows obviously have a perfect 3-season plot, and then go to contrived episode of the week poo poo after that.

I bet Pasha's dead, and both E+P eventually decide to defect. Mark it dude.

I was a bit worried this might be like Justified Season 5, which was easily the worst in that they spent a lot of it setting up for the run to the finish with lame villains and a lame Ava in Oz subplot. Fortunately, this S5 has been good.
