Yes, this. Perfect except it was not filmed in DC and it shows.


Haha yes- they didn't even try. I think there was a chase scene in the first season where they were rattling off all these streets in Takoma/Silver Spring, where I was living at the time, and it was so funny how un-Takoma it looked. Great show overall and I doubt anyone outside the DMV really knew the difference but it always drove me a bit crazy!


Yeah, but they captured the feeling of what it was like to live here in the '80s. And, those characters and their story stays with you. DH and I still wonder about them from time to time -- and we would definitely watch an Americans: Next Gen to find out where Paige and Henry are now. (We have our theories . . . )

I guess North and South and Pride and Prejudice are miniseries but they are very good.
