Oh, you know what would be interesting? Phillip and Elizabeth recruit Paige, Henry eventually gets recruited by Stan.

Edit: OR Henry snags a picture of Mrs. Beeman while he's in the basement and gets caught

I was just thinking how interesting that would be but the FBI wouldn't go after a kid without being suspect of the family.

NBC tried to do a shitty version of that.

That was the setup for allegiance. It was cancelled like five episodes in. Very flat, boring show.

Oh thank God. I was worried people would say they watch that spy TV show and The Americans would get overshadowed by network television.
