Not sure about whether to give this new series a third chance? Here’s one smart reason to do just that: Beginning tonight, Margo Martindale begins a recurring role as the new handler of Soviet sleeper agents Elizabeth and Phillip Jennings (Keri Russell, Matthew Rhys). Martindale, of course, won an Emmy for her riveting performance as Mags Bennett on Justified – so it’s worth checking in, for a while, just to see what kind of evil she can brew up with this new role.

Give this show a chance? This is the best fricken new show to date. I can't understand how you guys here on TVWW are iffy about this show, yet praise that contrived piece of nothing that's "The Following".

THIS is a TV drama. For one, it's plausible, okay? It's believable. The acting is outstanding. The stories are compelling. I was hooked the very first episode. It's simply wonderful and I have no idea where it's heading...which is a good thing.

Going back to "The Following", I saw one episode and already could tell how the rest of the season was going to play out. It's that predictably awful and again, contrived. Forget that show and concentrate on "The Americans".
