Wow! This is wild to read -- a real life version of "The Americans".

I was actually surprised at how boring and mundane their lives were and how ineffectual the program sounded. The only slightly interesting part was the possible spy at the nuke lab, but of course these agents’ part was to only drop something off at a dead drop, if even that (they may have only scouted a spot).

The Americans tv show was much more exciting and even that got a bit boring.
