January undeniably drags on. The festive period leaves everyone exhausted once it’s finished, the weather is miserable, and all anyone wants is to snuggle beneath a duvet watching television, yet “New Year, new you” messages bombard us constantly.
So, here’s your green light to get cozy under that duvet and begin a fresh series – and if recommendations are what you’re after, search no further, because Disney+ has something on the streaming service that’s bound to captivate you. Someone posted in Reddit’s ‘Best of Netflix’ community seeking suggestions for something especially compelling. They requested a “10/10 series that actually has a proper, satisfying ending”.
They mentioned it didn’t need to be exclusively on Netflix, as they had access to additional streaming platforms. And in response, one TV recommendation kept coming up.
Numerous people suggested the Disney+ drama ‘The Americans,’ which boasts an impressive 96% score on Rotten Tomatoes.
According to Disney+, the “FX original drama The Americans stars Keri Russell and Matthew Rhys as undercover Soviet spies in the U.S. during the Cold War in the late ’80s.”
The narrative unfolds during the Reagan era and centers on the arranged union of Philip and Elizabeth Jennings, two KGB operatives.
It quickly becomes apparent that the couple harbor deeper feelings beyond their professional partnership, which amplifies the dangers of their clandestine work.
It’s this tension that appears to have captured the interest of audiences – and they can’t believe how interesting it is from the start.
Someone posted on Reddit saying they were “still amazed” about how “gripping” it was “from the get-go”.
One enthusiast raved: “I’m starting a rewatch, yet again. I’ve watched it so many times already that it’s usually in the background.
“This time, I decided to keep my focus on each and every episode as if it were my first time, and I need to. I’m still amazed by how the first episode just grabs me from start to finish.”
Another commented: “It’s an awesome show. Waiting week to week, season to season was true peak live TV watching suspense!!!”
Meanwhile, another Redditor noted: “As someone who was a teenager during the years this takes place, they really nailed it, from the decor, fashion, music, and the tension between the US and USSR.
“Even that movie Paige had to watch about the nuclear bomb movie, and I did too in high school”.
