jaeFirst, a veritable cornucopia of post-season interviews with showrunners Joe Weisberg and Joel Fields: from Hitfix, from the AV Club, from Vulture, from TV Line, from Yahoo, from TV Guide, from tv.com, from Slate (audio, ~30 minutes, available only to subscribers, though a partial transcript is available here), and from Grantland (audio, ~57 minutes). [Editorial comment: take some time to read/listen to these if you can--they're all so different and so good!]
Next up, some reviews of season two: from Vulture, from the AV Club, from Screen Invasion, from Bustle, and from Talking TV With Ryan and Ryan (audio, ~48 minutes).
From Hitfix, an interview with Matthew Rhys (Philip).
From the New York Post, an interview with Noah Emmerich (Stan).
Keri Russell (Elizabeth) took part in a joint interview of many of the potential Emmy nominees for Best Actress with the Hollywood Reporter. This link has both a transcript of parts of the interview and video of a riff on the "what would you do if you weren't an actor" question" (~ 4:40). [Edited to add: the full video interview is now up (~1 hour).]
Two interviews with Annet Mahendru (Nina): one from Yahoo and one from U.S. News.
An interview with Costa Ronin (Oleg) from OK Magazine.
From The Wire, an interview with Margo Martindale (Claudia).
Two interviews with the composer for the show, Nathan Barr: from the Hollywood Reporter, and an excerpt from a piece from Film Score Monthly Online.
From Vanity Fair, a piece on the realism behind many of the show's spy storylines, and The Atlantic has a column on the show's refreshingly real take on Russians. And from Think Progress, a piece that challenges the realism in the season finale's plot twist.
From The Wire, the last season two "wig of the week", on the finale. And further in the disguises vein, TV Ate My Wardrobe has a piece on the best disguises of season two.
A column in Entertainment Weekly debates whether or not Elizabeth is a bad mom.
The Hollywood Reporter has The Americans at #2 in last week's "power rankings".
Paste Magazine has a piece on the 10 most shocking moments on the show.
"Behind The Red Door" has been pre-nominated in the AV Club's Tournament of Episodes.
From Indiewire, a summary of the pre-finale (but post-screener) tweets from some of the critics.
FX released a little mini-feature on The Art of the Edit (only viewable from within the U.S.).
According to Headline Planet, the ratings were up slightly for the season finale.
The LA Times has a piece on the recent trend in spy-related television series, including comments from The Americans co-showrunner Joel Fields.
An astrology blogger has written an mythological/astrological interpretation of the finale.
And finally, a glimpse into a writers' room joke: the supposed original pitch for the Stealth arc. :)
