"Don't get too comfortable about anybody turning out well" -- @joel_fields on Henry's future in #TheAmericans #TCA18

Keri Russell says they're halfway through production of the final season of the show. Matthew Rhys says the challenge is still how to land the momentous moments. #TheAmericans

Keri Russell says "it's an uphill sprint" to the end of #TheAmericans. There isn't much time for reflection yet. Long days in bitter cold in NY (which lends itself to the show) make them have to focus on the 2 months left of work. #TCA18

The time jump in the final season of #TheAmericans also allows chances to show how incremental changes in a marriage affect so much. #TCA18

Holly Taylor notes they have a strong female protagonist who will do whatever she has to for her family, while the paternal figure is more passive, which is a gender role reversal from the typical. She thinks that should get mentioned more. #TheAmericans #TCA18

Weisberg and Fields do not have plans for a spinoff of #TheAmericans. #TCA18

Fields says the Russian part of the story has been in the works for a long time, but admits that early (like Season 2) they still had concerns about doing scenes in Russian. #TheAmericans #TCA18

Weisberg says that although you didn't often see it on-screen, Philip was full-time in the travel agency the whole time. Occasionally he'd leave in the middle of the day but most of his spy work was at night. #TheAmericans #TCA18

Fields says, consciously and unconsciously, they have written a lot more silent sequences, allowing the actors to let things play without dialogue, which creates more opportunities for music. #TheAmericans #TCA18

"Everyone's doing something because they think it's best for them," Taylor says. #TheAmericans #TCA18

"As a woman it's been an incredible feminist role. It's so rare to be so single-minded, and she's so successful until the end. It's a rare part," Russell says. #TheAmericans #TCA18

Costa Ronin agrees that it's important to take a step back and try to understand why someone is doing something. There's always more under the surface. #TheAmericans #TCA18

Matthew Rhys, a classy goddamn gentleman if there ever was one, interjects to thank the room for supporting the show and to invite us for a drink. #TheAmericans

“I bet it’s easy as a viewer of the show to assume that what that dream means for Elizabeth is that Paige is going to be committing acts of violence and honey-trapping and doing all the things that Elizabeth has done in the most dramatic fashion on the show, but she doesn’t imagine any of that for her daughter at all,” Fields explains. “Paige, as an American citizen, has a solid identity, so there’s no point in training Paige to do honey traps or commit murder. Elizabeth’s long game is to have her join the CIA or the State Department or the upper echelons of the military. Who knows? Maybe one day she might be president.” Hmm, a president secretly installed by Russians?
