The Diplomat is a political thriller on Netflix created by Deborah Cahn who was behind such Golden Globe-winning TV shows as Homeland and Fosse/Verdon.  The 8-episode series stars Golden Globe-winning Keri Russell as Kate Wyler, the new United States ambassador to the United Kingdom who is faced with the challenge of defusing international crises, forging strategic alliances in London, and adjusting to her new place in the spotlight while also trying to keep her marriage together to fellow career diplomat Hal Wyler, played by Rufus Sewell.

The fascinating tale of two Russian spies – “Elizabeth” and “Philip” – living in the United States as a regular American family in the last years of the Cold War, the FX series The Americans has received several accolades, including Golden Globe nominations for its stars Keri Russell and Matthew Rhys. While people may have wondered about Cold War themes in the new millennium, the talk of a possible Russian shadow in America’s last election and on-going questions and innuendo between the two countries, has made the show almost prescient – and hotter than ever.

Last year Matthew Rhys and Keri Russell earned Golden Globe nominations as the titular Soviet spies in deep suburban cover in Reagan-era America. The series created by former CIA officer Joe Weisberg has earned wide critical praise as one of the best in TV and its fifth season coincides with renewed interest in the real-life relationship between Russia and the US.
