Don't you think this striking billboard for
The Americans is a great way to kick off another week of creative visuals.
Daily Billboard loves the juxtaposition of the show's patriotic title with the
Russian Cold War style propaganda imagery, plus the simple red and mono colour palette really stands out against the blue
California sky.
This tale of
Soviet KGB sleeper agent spies impersonating everyday
American citizens in the
Eighties is an intriguing premise, but there's no doubt it wouldn't exist if not for the overwhelming success of
Showtime's Homeland series with its domestic terrorism plots.
Matthew Rhys and
Keri Russell star as the deep cover operatives leading a false family life in the
USA, although only time (and the writing and performances) will tell how sympathetic
U.S. viewers will be to super secret spies operating on
American soil.
This series premiere billboard for
The Americans was snapped along
Sunset Boulevard when it was installed on January 2, 2013.
UPDATED: Here's also the equally arresting standard format creative for the new super spy show photographed along
Fairfax Avenue on January 16, 2013.
