I hadn’t heard much about this pilot before this casting, but that’s likely because it’s an FX show. I haven’t watched anything on Fox’s cable network, but The Americans, should it make it to series, sounds like an excellent place to start. The 1980s will make an unusual setting, but the cold war drama and undercover lives should be interesting enough to balance out the cringe-worthy clothes and hairstyles. I enjoy Keri Russell’s acting, so that will be an additional plus.
