The Americans - Season 5
I don't think we have heard the last of Martha.

Next season will only be 10 episodes, and I'm thinking it'll be a real wild season.

Will Elizabeth kill Phillip to stay in the US and keep on working? Will they go back to Russia? Will they try to stay in America? Will they defect and work with Stan for protection to stay here since the Russians would never allow them to stay knowing what they know? Do the Russians allow them to stay in return for the daughter coming into the spy program?

There are so many situations that ran through my head at the end of this season that would close the series out.

After all they have done, I don't think the FBI is going to put them in witness protection. I think they go on a trip to Europe alone, fake their death, return to Russia and the kids stay in the US with Stan.

The two scenes of Elizabeth looking at all she has in her closet and in her kitchen...

I was thinking more of a flip and turn into double agents. They'll never get out of the spy game if they stay in the US.

It just ended, so probably next April or so.

There was a lot going on in the last 10 minutes of the finale. I don't see Elizabeth killing Philip. They seem to have grown closer than ever the last two seasons. I'm also not sure that they would (willingly) spy for anyone other than the Soviets. They seem burnt out, but still very loyal.

The Stan/Renee (new GF) storyline and whether she was sent by the Center is interesting. They spent more time developing that. The Paige storyline is another one that I think will impact whether they stay.

Elizabeth definitely seems to be having mixed feelings about leaving what they have. Maybe they ultimately end up staying, Philip takes the timeout they discussed, and they train Paige for the next generation. My guess would be that it's going to be a rocky road to get there, and Renee is going to play a larger role in all of this.

We found the season simply boring. Time to wrap it up.

Thanks for taking this silly show no more seriously than I do. I'm sticking it out until the end, setting new records for invective hurled at a tv screen.

Indeed she does, that long hair is very, very hot! Just waiting for it to come back to Amazon Prime so I can finish out the entire series.
