Discard your last memory of Keri Russell acting, whether that be from Felicity at the bitter end, or post haircut; in the lovely independent film Waitress; or in 2010’s Running Wilde, the terrible Fox comedy in which she played straight man to Will Arnett. Because in the opening scene of the new FX drama The Americans, she is be-wigged and giving a BJ, indicating that both she and her character, Elizabeth, an entrenched KGB spy posing as an American in the early 1980s, are no joke.
