Post by sparksy »

this is on the same channel as SOA , its about 2 russian spys in amaerica in the 1980s.. proper cold war times.. which im old enough to remember :(

this makes homeland look a little silly its that good... i like homeland.. but this is better by far.. first season is up for grabs :D

yeah on ep 6 now.. its really well polished.. the look of it all is really well done..very 1980s... i do like homeland but this is way more realistic..shows the paranoia that reagan and the soviets had at the time really well..

I have been watching the first 3 episodes this weekend.
It looks very well polished, but....I'm not sure if I like the story, it's a bit boring so far. I won't give up on it yet, but it has to speed up a bit.

yeah its not all action all the way... but its way more realistic than homeland ..and tention is built up as pressure is put on the two spys to do shit along the way... the family aspect in it is a bit more interesting as well...as it is all make belive.. but their kids dont know it 8O no soppy teenage bits like in homeland either.. danna does get on my pip some what in homeland... stick it out liq see what you think.
