"Executive Producers Joe Weisberg, Joel Fields andGraham Yost have done a wonderful job delivering two seasons, and the performances from Keri Russell, Matthew Rhys and Noah Emmerich are stellar. Fans will be blown away by the rest of this season, and we can't wait to see what they come up with next year."

The Americans: 5 Burning Questions For Season 3 (http://whatculture.com/tv/americans-5-burning-questions-season-3.php)

This is a great series and has garnered strong reviews.

I gave it a try when it first came on but I gave up on it. I just can't root for those guys.

So glad to hear season 3 will happen. The characters and stories have gotten better each week.
