"The Americans" season 3 release date is just 26 days away. The FX political drama will premiere the first episode of its third season run on January 28 and will pick-up from where it left off in the finale of its sophomore season.
The show is about a Russian couple pretending to be Americans but are actually agents of KGB. Starring Matthew Rhys as Philipp Jennings and Keri Russell as Elizabeth Jennings, the show tackles the life of a Russian couple in 1980s and how they balance their lives as agents of America's mortal enemy and as parents to their unsuspecting children.
In the first two seasons, viewers saw Philipp and Elizabeth deal with a lot of misunderstandings, some in the four corners of their home and some in their field of work. When The Americans Season premieres, people will see the same thing. The couple's quest to have perfect normal life will remain tainted by their past and obligation to their country. According to a synopsis released for the first episode titled "EST Men," the couple will have a fight while their neighbor and FBI officer Stan Breeman (Noah Emerich) will try to reconcile with his former wife.
"Tensions simmer between Philip and Elizabeth as they disagree over handling orders from the Centre. When Elizabeth loses key intel, Philip enlists Annelise on a mission with an unexpected outcome. Stan tries a new approach to mending his marriage with Sandra amidst learning tough news about Nina (Annet Mahendru)."
