    I'm using the show (which is among my favorites) to learn Russian.

    Just started the show this week. It's pretty well written. Some of the stuff like the clothing and language is not accurate, but some of the stuff, like being gone from your kids with no explanation, wouldn't cause people to bat an eyebrow like it would today.

    I am sure you are joking, though it would be a good platform.

    I really enjoy the fact that they hire actual Russian speaking actors to play those Russian speaking characters. They even use period terminology, which is awesome.

    I've really I noted the show. However, this season's finale was not up to the high standards that the show has set to date.
    I like my rifles like my women - short, light, fast, brown, and suppressed.

    Did you expect a mayhem of action? Most people did.

    I expected there to be a pretty serious bit of buildup towards the next season.

    The Rezidentura is by far, my favorite character.

    You are talking about Arkady Ivanovich Zotov or Oleg Burov?

    Having been born behind the Iron Curtain while it was still in official existence and growing up during the Reagan years, it brought back some "good" memories.
