<em>The Americans</em> Should Let The Russians Win
There's plenty at stake on tonight's season-two finale of FX's The Americans. If you're the gambling sort, take the over on body count (2.5), goofy wigs (7.5), shocking betrayals of one's country (1.5), and sparingly deployed and thus even more badass '80s-pop-classic montages (0.5; last year's fina...
