Just saw the pilot, and I'm on board.

This is unusual: KGB agents posing as an American family.

Legs.

And Reagan! He scared everyone, even us!

He was a scary guy. I'll bet he looks really scary now.

I do miss Walter Cronkite, though.
 
It's a good show. It seems to hop around the weekly schedule though and is hard to put the episodes in the proper order.
 
Vladimir Putin is Russia's answer to Ronald Reagan.

Day late and a dollar short, but there it is.
 
Season 2 starts next week. It's a good show; I'd like to see them somehow take it all the way to the end of the Cold War.

If Season 2 covers 1982, that would make the death of Brezhnev one of the major plot points. I think we all remember where we were when we heard the news the old commie had bought it.
 
You MUST get season one and binge watch.
That's probably what I'll do. At first, the pilot was confusing... but like any complicated story, you just have to pay attention. And, at the end, the picture is complete.

I love the show, the 80's and all.
Not a big fan of the 80's. A few bright stars. But the Star Wars thing sure helped me out.

This season should be great. Already on record.:cool:
I have six days to catch up... ;)
 
Somebody finally found his intellectual milieu...



But, it's just a show. It's Laverne and Shirley.
 
"These people will never be socialists!!"

I can't remember when I've been so startled by one line...

I never saw that.

Describe it for me, if you will?

"Intellectual milieu" is interesting... is that not a propaganda phrase?

Do you have a "cause" that you're doing propaganda for?

No, I am just having a bit of fun with one of Lit's great conservative thinkers; a real DC L-comic type...
 
Greece is in dependance...

;) ;)
Interdependence.

It's the EU. Welcome to the Brotherhood of Man.

We've taken care of everything
The words you read, the songs you sing
The pictures that give pleasure to your eyes
It's one for all and all for one
We work together, common sons
Never need to wonder how or why

We are the Priests of the Temples of Syrinx
Our great computers fill the hallowed halls
We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx
All the gifts of life are held within our walls

Look around at this world we've made
Equality our stock in trade
Come and join the Brotherhood of Man
Oh, what a nice, contented world
Let the banners be unfurled
Hold the Red Star proudly high in hand

We are the Priests of the Temples of Syrinx
Our great computers fill the hallowed halls
We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx
All the gifts of life are held within our walls
