The Americans, man...

And my main concern disappointment which you ignored was the mad-man over-acting Phillip and the absolutely ridiculousness of those scenes. It is clear they just decided, wouldn't it be cool if we just let Phillip get so mad that he yells so violently at his daughter that you see him like an evil KBG man interrogating or even torturing someone in that scene. OK. So what? Absolutely no follow-though. So it meant nothing really. Just a half-brained half-assed executed idea.

Oh...he's distraught over killing. Why now? No good reason but they are pussies and they have to do that or he will appear too inhuman. But that is not the truth either. That is BS hollywood. If you are going to have the audacity to have the protagonists brutally killing people like hit-men, then follow fucking through a-holes. Don't do it half-assed.
