A tiny (and non-spoilery, as far as I can tell) teaser trailer has been released for season two! They've given it a name ("Hidden") and there are hints that there will be others. [Edited to add: Another one, "Dinner Table," has also been released now.]

Guys, guys, our show is cleaning up in the Top Ten lists this year. Here are several more: the Washington Post, Vulture (and here's what it looks like in the actual magazine), and the American Film Institute list.

Antennafree TV features The Americans as one of the thirteen new TV shows you should binge-watch over the holidays.

On the spoiler front, ScreenCrush talks about the teaser and the other known spoilers that have been released so far (but also mentions one I hadn't seen before), the title has been revealed for season two, episode six, Joel Fields tweeted a photo of an editor working with the opening shot for season two, and there are now several shots of the "80s wall" in the The Americans writers' room: one of Joel Fields and Joe Weisberg standing in front of it early in the season, a closeup revealing potential spoilery things, and another closeup revealing potential spoilery things.

I like that Hidden teaser much better than the Russian Roulette one, which just seemed weird to me.

Ooo, so excited about the Brezhnev news!

Ideas on what we're seeing in the opening shot? The place Elizabeth is recuperating? Some shot back in Russia on a coast somewhere?

Joel Fields also just tweeted some shots of episode 2 where we see a hand (assuming a Jennings hand) and the spinner from the game of "Life"!

Thank you so much for collecting all those interesting bits of information. I would never ever get to see those otherwise.

That writers' wall is really really interesting. Seems like they do at least *some* research. :D
