FX's new drama, "The Americans," arrives tonight in a special 90-minute launch starting at 10, and it's good. Here's my review. Check out the newish promo below. Yes, you'll giggle when the first face you see is that of Kerri Russell's, talking about how "I was seventeen when I joined the KGB..." Yeah, sure you did, Felicity... But she's good in it, plus it stars the terrific Welsh actor, Matthew Rhys, most recently in Masterpiece Theatre's "The Mystery of Edwin Drood."
