Fan community for FX's The Americans

Oh okay, I was reading all these response and trying to figure out how someone could loathe Philip, but I guess if you took that episode as sexist rather than Philip has a strong need to protect his family members that doesn't always manifest in reasonable ways, it would be possible. I actually read a lot more extreme dislike towards Elizabeth (like reading other people's responses on other sites) and can't really recall having found one that targeted Philip before. I think both characters are the sort that if you don't dig in and try to understand what's not being said overtly about what they're doing and what's driving it below the surface, they're easy to misunderstand and then to dislike.
