"One day, it will all come crashing down."

One of the few long running shows that totally stuck the landing. The ending really sealed this as one of the greatest dramas of all time

[arucker]

This was one of the very best shows! From beginning to the devastating, shocking and heartbreaking finale. The show ending still gets me, especially with the U2 song "With or without you" adding to the tension and heartbreak

The garage scene with Stan and Philip is to this day one of the best scenes I've watched in a TV show. Period.

"One of the greatest dramas in television history"

100%. If you're having second thoughts about watching this show, please don't. This is honestly one of the most meaningful shows ever made, and it instantly became one of my top 3 shows of all time. It's just that good. Beside Joe MacMillan from Halt and Catch Fire, Philip Jennings from The Americans is one the best TV characters of all time, in my opinion.

Oh I got too excited I thought they were getting a spin-off series or something lol 😆

[jacknoodles]

The very last episode was so intense, I can’t remember any show that had me sweating and on the edge of my seat more than this show .

[lisa-and-cannoli]

The series finale was EPIC….perfectly written, perfectly acted. Honestly the BEST ending to a show ever 🎉

[TheKrazysexykool]

This was one of the very, very best and underappreciated shows of all time. I enjoyed all 6 seasons.

[elwoodperry]

I met both Keri and Matt, from " The Americans". They are amazing people.

I just finished this series last night. I'm just devastated by the entire experience. I can't even put into words how fantastic the entire thing was. The acting by all, was incredible, and just moving, to the core. The writing, so tight, that every episode just wound the experience tighter and tighter. It was gut wrenching, and heart breaking, and just unbelievable. I remember seeing the first episode back in 2013 or so, when it aired, but I didn't know it had become a series...I'm not sure why. It's gonna take a few weeks to process this whole experience, and I can't thank everyone involved, enough. One, if not, THE greatest TV series of all time. I literally want to write to each of the actors, and thank them for just destroying me!!

Best shows for me- in order:
- Dark
- Chernobyl
- The Americans
- Person of Interest

Bravo! Such a powerful, perfect series!

I’ve already done 2 full rewatches since the end. It gets better each time. The music is SO good - The Americans single-handedly made The Chain my favorite Fleetwood Mac song. So smart to put Julie Garner in a few clips. She was just Kimmy from The Americans before Ozark.

[naturesquad]

The duality of the main characters is one of the most compelling things I've watched. That final episode was probably the best payoff I've gotten from a series, I'll never look at U2 or Amtrak the same way again lol

[suzanneporter]

Have watched in its entirety 3 times, loving every minute. What a smart, tense, perfectly written and acted show. One of my all-time faves.

[almarnassihakim]

I really envy anyone that is about to start watching this gem for the first time❤❤❤

[Cliffy_Boy]

Just finished the series yesterday. Masterpiece all the way through.

[Blackmessa]

Just finished watching it for the fifth time. Every time I watched it I discovered something new about the whole story. Definitely in my top 3 series

[cs_yt]

I watched the whole thing 3 times, first on FX, then twice streamed. I was so hoping it was a sequel.

[stevemyers]

THIS IS ONE...NO...THE BEST spy thriller EVER written. I was depressed when the show ended.
