Surprised this show isn't getting more praise. The season finale was pretty fantastic and the season overall was good as well. I'm excited for next season.

They're all sitting on my DVR. I didn't have time to get them all watched.

Really glad to hear it didn't end up sucking nuts.

I'm falling down a spiral, destination unknown
A double-crossed messenger, all alone
I can't get no connection, can't get through, where are you
Well the night weighs heavy on his guilty mind
This far from the borderline
And when the hit man comes
He knows damn well he has been cheated

This show uses music like no other

When the Bullet hits the Bone - has there been a more universally unambiguous tag to a song?

GE's other big hit, what a ****ing underrated band

Look, I don't expect you to understand this, he was willing to sacrifice himself for the greater good.


Oofah!!!

What a creepy sad ending to the episode

I thought it was awesome. His reticence to bring his daughter into the spy game juxtaposed against him using someone slightly older than his daughter in the spy game.

This season is going to be good.

I'm surprised they managed to keep Nina's character in the story line (happy about it though because that bitch is fine).

Oh, I thought it was awesome too. But the sadness comes from the juxtaposition of trying to protect his own daughter and imagining what he's going to have to do to turn that poor girl.

OK, it's been a week and I don't think I've gone an hour yet without Only You going through my head.

This show has a preternatural ability to pick out the very best music of the period, almost makes me want to travel back to there.

Best music moment since I commented on it last season.

So who breaks down first, Phillip or Elizabeth?

Elizabeth never breaks. That is a stone cold bitch for mother Russia. She's views her entire existence as an assignment in hell for the greater good. Phillip thinks there is a reality to the life they've created.

Elizabeth would kill Paige with her bare hands and fold her up in plastic if the mission called for it. She'd probably do the same to Phillip if need be.

I would agree with that in the past, but she is beginning to show cracks this season. The legitimate bonding between Phillip and Paige is really starting to get to her.

I also think Phillip would kill her in a heartbeat if Elizabeth broaches the spy subject before he feels she is ready to at least have the conversation.

I guess it means what you mean by crack, as a spy or as a parent.

I see Elizabeth as a spy who happens to have kids. I see Phillip much more ambivalent in each camp inside the home, though he is resolutely a spy outside the home.

Definitely as a parent.

Both Phillip and Elizabeth are great spies. The question is when does the home life boil over and prevent them from being good spies (for me at least). Or when does Phillip decide to embrace the "easy American" life with his kids and defect.

Just binge-watched from about ep 5 of season 2 to last week's episode. Holy crap a lot happened.

Ever had to fold up a dead asset like a wallet?

Every week, this show manages to bring out strong emotion with me.

It's amazing how long they can keep you focused on their roles as a 'typical suburban family' then blindside you again and again with what ruthless brutal spies they actually are.

pedophilia, assassination, body dumps, and that's just how they deal with strangers.
