Cylana Kim, a New York publicist, gave us a look at the The Americans wig room on Twitter.

Hollywood Reporter and Digital Spy are also both reporting that actress Aimee Carrero will play a recurring character as a Sandinista freedom fighter in season two.

And, not directly show-related, but just for fun, a short video of Matthew Rhys doing a bunch of different accents. It's especially fun watching him do a Russian one, since we've never actually heard that!

LOL! He's right, that last one was very Speedy Gonzales.

LOLOLOL oh Matthew. He does sound like Speedy Gonzales. But he also sounded EXACTLY like Billy Connoly, which was delightful. I also loved the scouse one!

They also had a twitter picture today from Joel Fields that said episode one is finished filming. The title on the script is "Comrades."

Interesting to begin speculating even if the premiere is still a long way (plus another month) away!

I saw that too! It's a great title. And almost certainly meant on several levels, at least one of them ironic (as per usual) :).

I think I may drive myself crazy between now and then speculating because there's those titles that have so many layers of meaning for several different characters...

"The Oath"
"Only You"
"Trust Me"
"In Control"
"Mutually Assured Destruction"

...and then there's those where it's just sort of there:

"The Clock"
"The Colonel"

Watch me spin it a dozen ways in my head only to discover it was just one of the random ones :D

I strongly suspect that your first inclinations are right this time--that title is just made for layers and layers...
