'The Americans' returns for its second season on FX tonight at 9 PM and I can't wait! The show takes place in 1982 during the Cold War and follows two Soviet spies (played by Keri Russell and Matthew Rhys).

They live together as a married couple with two kids (who are unaware their parents are spies) in suburban Washington D.C.

Their next door neighbor happens to be a FBI agent who is in a department that tries to capture Commie spies. It's almost too coincidental, but that's the only part about 'The Americans' that left me questioning the show.

The action scenes are great, the plot is well-formed, the writing and dialogue are stellar and the show does a nice job reliving the 1980's (from what I can remember).

If you missed the first season, it's definitely worth catching up and joining the legion of 'The Americans' fans.
