It’s less than a week away – Season 5 of The Americans! After breaking down the episodes from Season 4, it’s time to pull out our crystal ball and precap what could be coming this year! And who better to join our speculations and discussion than our good friend Kathleen, aka Alternakat! We dig deep into all our characters, advance crackpot theories, and get excited about next week. Plus, Kathleen reveals “Kathleen’s Awesome 1984 Mixtape” featuring the following smash hits:
Come Back and Stay – Paul Young
Love is a Stranger – Eurythmics
Wrapped Around Your Finger – The Police
One Thing Leads to Another – The Fixx
Burning Down the House – Talking Heads

We also have a couple of news items! Vogue checks out the style of Keri Russell and Matthew Rhys at the Premiere of The Americans, while NPR talks with ‘The Americans’ showrunners on writing the Cold War-Era drama amid our new Russian relations!
