There are three episodes left in the current run, with the season-four finale to air June 8. FX Productions has also closed new overall deals with <em>The Americans<\/em> co-showrunners and executive producers, Joe Weisberg and Joel Fields, to develop their next series.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThrough its first four seasons, critics have lauded <em>The Americans<\/em> as one of the best shows on television and, remarkably, a series that keeps getting better every year,\u201d said\u00a0<span class=\"s1\">Eric Schrier, co-president of original programming for FX Networks and FX Productions<\/span>. \u201cAll credit for that achievement goes to everyone who has worked on the show, and especially co-showrunners Joe Weisberg and Joel Fields, Graham Yost, our brilliant stars Keri Russell, Matthew Rhys, Noah Emmerich, Allison Wright, Holly Taylor, Annet Mahendru and the ensemble cast for their incomparable performances every season. We have no doubt that this two-season order will allow Joe and Joel to tell this story to its perfect conclusion. On behalf of our producing partners at Fox 21 Television Studios and Amblin TV, we look forward to a brilliant final act of the Jennings family saga.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s hard to believe we&#8217;re heading into the final stretch on <em>The Americans<\/em>, and we\u2019re so grateful to know we\u2019ll be telling the story to its conclusion,&#8221; said Fields and Weisberg. &#8220;The best part of the last four years has been the intensive and fruitful collaboration with all of the people who make this show\u2014the teams at FX, Fox 21 Television Studios, FX Productions and Amblin, our amazing cast, crew, and production team and our fellow writers. It&#8217;s a lot of people putting their hearts and souls into <em>The Americans<\/em>, at this point for a lot of years. We&#8217;re looking forward to the final two.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LOS ANGELES: FX has ordered a fifth and sixth season of The Americans, which will wrap up its series run in 2018.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":350,"featured_media":6160,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[538,145],"class_list":["post-6159","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-fx","tag-the-americans","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
