Do you really want to use these people for your travel agents, Martha? We think maybe not, and many of you agree! This week we are talking all about The Americans Season 4 Episode 7 “Travel Agents”, which aired April 27, 2016. It was written by Tanya Barfield and directed by Dan Attias.

This is Episode 50 and contains our history, tech of yesteryear, and feedback segments. Please check out Episode 49 to get the news and our episode breakdown and analysis.

History often includes what we eat, and we have some delightful Borscht courtesy of our friend Ginger aka Joan, then we turn on the TV and check out the young Brooke Shields

In her scandalous Calvin Klein Jeans Commercial. Then it’s off to the trails in Rock Creek Park Valley and we stop and reflect with our brethren at First Trinity Lutheran Church. Of course we drove there in our Ford Granada, and we found the church using a Grid Search that we drew on a map using a cool Compass! Then we listen to all your tremendous feedback!

Oh Martha, can this get any worse? And you Gaad, what are you going to do? In perhaps one of the series finest episodes, we end up asking these questions and more! This week we are talking all about The Americans Season 4 Episode 7 “Travel Agents”, which aired April 27, 2016. It was written by Tanya Barfield and directed by Dan Attias.

This is Episode 49 and contains the news and our episode breakdown and analysis. To hear our history, tech of yesteryear, and feedback segments stay tuned for Episode 50.

We have some great stories in the Pravda newsroom! We begin with The Hollywood Reporter’s  chat with Alison Wright on Martha’s fate, followed by A/V Club’s opinion that there’s no escaping the best episode (so far) of The Americans’ 4th season, then Adweek reveals how ‘The Americans’ Chooses Its ‘80s Ads, and we wind up with TV Series Finale’s supposition that The Americans may already be renewed for Season Five.

Then it’s all about Martha Martha Martha! We watch as she is on the run in DC from both her colleagues at the FBI and her KGB pals. Will she call someone? Will she jump from a bridge? Who finds her first? Why do we call operator Joan “Ginger?” Plus, a respite with the teens. That leads us to the startling revelation of the true nature of the #Clartha relationship and the seeming fate facing Martha. What a gut-punch!
