The Americans Panel Cast Talks Finale Secrets Wigs Slaps

The Americans cast at the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences in Los Angeles, 2013
At about 50:30, there’s a glitch in the recording. Move to about 51 or so Rhys talks about how he was nervous going into the “chemistry read” meeting with Russell, but he notes that they had an excellent rapport right away.

I'm delighting in watching this video for the third time because of the fantastic interviewer and her wonderful way of putting the panel at ease and encouraging them in their interesting responses. Also, Matthew Rhys' rapid-fire wit reminds me so much of Robin Williams, with the added delight of a yummy Welsh accent.

Rhys is absurdly funny in every single interview. I love his sense of humor. It's almost hard to believe he could play such a serious character as Philip Jennings so well.

[@kwarrenmusik]

Totally agree ☺️

[@christinarobinson1808]

Me too👌😊

[@unownnnn]

Credit to Annet and Matthew for their convincing accents in the show!

[@kristinwood8884]

Also Alison Wright is British and also does a phenomenal job without a hint of the posh UK accent. I realize the language either way is English, the accents are extremely different.

[@kelra333]

Matthew and Noah were so delightful to watch!

[@evandertj]

Matthew Rhys is just SO FUNNY

[@lockergr]

Claudia is adorable in personality, and Matthew is both criminally cute and charismatic. It's no wonder Keri fell for him!

[@christinarobinson1808]

Absolutely 👌😋

I have always loved this show, and each of these characters on stage, Margo is so funny. I love every movie I've seen her in. She was a riot in, Walk Hard, the Duey Cox story. She must have had a difficult time delivering those lines. She's a very talented woman. I hope the Americans stays on for many years. 💕

[@noele.3545]

Annet is so beautiful!

[@AmericanArtWorld]

One of the best tv show till date. Hope season 7 happens 🙏

Fav wig: Phillip's slightly 'Jeff Beck' look-his wig for kidnapping the South African to the theme of "Tusk".

[@falaschipolchowicz]

Amazing thank you!

[@lombardian100]

Wow! I so love this show.

[@tbd]

Why would the camera not show Keri during her video message? SMH

[@yokie52]

Good interviewer

[@yokie52]

I wish they had asked if much of this would be possible now. With flight records computerized, Homeland Security, security cameras everywhere, etc.

[@alexc9798]

Great show..Great characters..love Nina..Always liked Stan

[@SCharlesDennicon]

5:30 Best camerawork ever.

[@KristyLove47]

Mathew looks so handsome here.

[@unownnnn]

Loooove that song at the end

[@puppylove2493]

He would make a great Richard Burton in a bio pix or acting role.

[@kristinwood8884]

A Welshman playing a Russian, playing an American takes a ton of talent alone.😊 Any time I see Annette now, I think about the story of when she recieved her final script.😢 The story of when she found out Nina's fate and cried as if she were Nina and her mom had to remind her, you are not Nina. I imagine that would be a really strange feeling and it would feel like a part of you had died, especially if it comes as a surprise.(its been awhile, but Im pretty sure it came as a shock😢)

[@jilldickson4352]

It’s quite strange to see an FBI agent and a Russian spy sat next to each other. ❤❤

[@lafarrell3192]

I wish the audio was louder.

[@oakleysierney1918]

IKR, especially the audience questions.

[@maryclaremayo6157]

The Americans: The Comedy

[@douglas2lee929]

Dear Annet, Those are some serious legs. Please take care of them, so that we may continue to enjoy.

[@andrewbaldwin4454]

Quite weird that everyone on stage seems to address lovely Annet Mahendru as Nina.

[@davidbranin969]

I think Clark is doing insurance commercials with a capitalist emu.

[@clash5j]

Love Noah and Margo makes everything she is in better

[@stevecostello4278]

He’s Welsh????

[@peterhudson5748]

Margo Martin dale rocks!!!

[@mohammedamin1995]

Seems like Annet fell in love with Noah lmao

[@matthewgandysr6251]

camera man sucks he hardly showing the young lady

[@retsub3]

Annet tho good god

[@rocketrider1405]

The show is not a comedy. What's with all the laughter here?

[@FoxyBlues]

Apparently that's what happens anytime Matthew Rhys is around ;)

[@rocketrider1405]

this show is so good it's not funny ! so glad it's been renewed for another 2 seasons!

[@farmerfarmerer3847]

I suspect the cast had some drinks before this.

[@oakleysierney1918]

It's exactly intense shows like this that have a lot of darkness and tension that humor is needed to release.
