The most important link of all: The Americans has been renewed for a fourth season!

Andy Greenwald has also trained his pen on the show this week.

Lightly Buzzed asks five burning questions after last week's episode, and Mstarz talks about the episode's great reception on Twitter.

Slate interviews the costume designers for the show.

And finally, this is only vaguely to do with the show, but a recent Russian spy couple unmasked in Belgium was compared extensively to the show (link goes to the original Dutch article, but here is an English translation that's pretty complete).

I can't stop laughing at that article about an actual spy couple punctuated with all these shots of a TV show. It should probably come with disclaimers like "Actual couple probably not as good-looking and well-dressed as these actors." and "Nothing like this picture probably ever happened in reality but it's badass!"

It's a little like writing about the discovery of a prehistoric cave man skeleton with unironic pictures of the Flintstones. But I love it.

Also I really do hope/assume that Philip and Elizabeth did come into the US via a third country. I don't know where I think this might come up, but it must be there.

My headcanon is Germany, for obvious reasons. :-)

Didn't they imply/show it was actually Germany at some point in the show? But I might be hallucinating and completelly unable to separate canon from fanon. :D

Nope, they've never shown or implied anything about how they came into the US. My obvious reason was Jae's fanfic. :-)

Oh, right. Right. Obviously unable to separate canon from fanon when. :D

No, they're going to kill of P&E and then Paige and Henry will continue the spying game, killing off Stan and hiring Martha as their "Granny"...

Or maybe not. ;-)

Woohoo! Renewal!

Speaking of which, has anyone seen Allegiance?

It was cancelled, but they're airing the rest of the season online.

I liked the original, but what I read about the changes they made for Allegiance turned me off the show.

As TreonB says, NBC are still getting the episodes out, but the show itself will be finished as of Season 1. It's not bad, but it isn't as fleshed-out as "The Americans", I don't think.
