The day we discovered our parents were Russian spies For years Donald Heathfield, Tracey Foley and their two children lived the American dream. Then an FBI raid revealed the truth: they were agents of Putin’s Russia. Their sons tell their story http://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/may/07/discovered-our-parents-were-russian-spies-tim-alex-foley?CMP=share_btn_tw

They renewed for a final two seasons even though ratings are down. I guess it will be one of those power watch shows. I'm up to date on episodes. Appears they are trying to give Elizabeth a heart and conscience. For some reason I am not won over that it's real. |

I love this show. I honestly don't understand why more people aren't watching. I think Elizabeth's story is very believable. Her daughter is now being brought in, at the exact age Elizabeth was. I think watching her daughter is like looking into a fun house mirror, it's making her think about everything in a new way, and for Elizabeth, that's difficult indeed. |

Love the show too. I think so many shows are on odd times and that so many set DVRs these days not many can watch when its regular times. We never do. The only fun part is tweeting on commercials. At least you have something to do than sit there. Lol |

Late to the party. Found out the show was available to watch free via amazon.com Prime, and I remembered Mariah saying it was a great show, so I started watching ... and ended up watching all the way through Season Four. Desperate for more, found out they haven't even made seasons 5 & 6, though they are listed as being intended via imdb.com. I like Elizabeth - funny, huh? I get annoyed with Philip and I think the character is poorly written. I mean, he's been doing this for 20 years and he's NOW starting to question it all? I was shocked when Nina was killed. I kept waiting for her to wake up in a hospital room and find out the shooter and doctor were paid off -- I watch too many soap opera kinds of shows. Martha, Martha, Martha ... very happy she's alive. And wondering if she got pregnant with that last "I need you inside me" screw in the safe house. I was worried something would happen with the biological in the same plane as her. HATE Paige. What a little bitch. HATE Stan. And the actor is not my favorite. The face twitch on the left side ... that's acting, folks, real acting. Not. But it's all he's got. Didn't like him in THE TRUMAN SHOW either. Was he in FREQUENCY? (Checked: yes.) Really loved Gaad's realization that Martha was married to a KGB spy. And I did enjoy Stan's realization that it was through his actions that Gaad found out, that Nina was killed, that Martha ran, that Gaad was killed ... and now he should add William. Very odd ending to the season. I appreciate the no cliffhanger way they did it, but it also felt odd. Waiting for Season Five ... and loving the gossip here that Keri and Matthew are together IRL! He played "Mr. Darcy" in a Netflix thing called "Death Comes to Pemberly" ... it's awesome. A "what happened later" to PRIDE AND PREJUDICE. Edited by IcyAll, Aug 13 2016, 03:20 AM.

So funny I love everyone but Elizabeth but I understand why Kizzy is the way she is. Paige is super confused. Can you imagine? I was very sad killing off Nina! |

I think Phillip starting questioning more since his kids are growing up and since they wanted to bring Paige into this dangerous game. Just my thought |

You could be right, it could be the whole Paige being pulled in thing that pushed Philip to be over it. I wanted Nina to help that scientist get word to his son, but she could have waited a few months and been free and done it then. It's an example of writing-for-the-killing, IMO. BTW, I read that Russell and Rhys had a baby boy, they named Sam, in March ... or was it May? In any case, she was apparently pregnant when the filmed the last season. I never noticed. |
