MikeRiderOOO One of those Americans are you?! Stop eating all that English propaganda your taught in your education system. Wales is not England. They are descended from different people. English (Saxon, Jutes etc), Welsh (Brythonic Cymru, Romans, and as far back as Trojans)
Just the fact they chose Matthew Rhys to play that role. He kills it. I am shocked his dialect is so smooth in The Americans. You can not even tell he is Welch. Holy. This guy deserves many awards for The Americans. That show is just phonemonal. One of the best shows I have ever seen.
I just finished it a 1/2 hour ago. I thought Rhys was an American, and I'm shocked at his accent. That means he's a better actor than I thought on the show, which was an amazing performance!
In season four, I laughed & laughed when Gaad said," I'm in charge of counterintelligence and my secretary married a KGB officer. " A great show and a lovely couple!
The shock when Mathew starts speaking and you are like why is he faking an accent. Then you google and he is Welsh. I feel like I have been lied to. I am actually questioning what is real. Wow he is a good actor.
I remember the day that I not only found out that he was Welsh, but also that they were married! It made the show so much better knowing both of those things!
@lockergr - I don't believe they actually married. I think they are long-term partners with a child from their relationship and 2 from her previous marriage.
lockergr I thought something was wrong with my t.v. when I first saw him interviewed. I stared at the screen for a good ten seconds wondering if he was doing a bit. I loved the show already but I respected this guy even more after that. He was in The Post too (good movie, see it) His accent is flawless!
I've watched the two of them being interviewed together a couple of other times, too, and I've been struck by how they make each other laugh. Sign of a good relationship.
Ever since "Felicity" graced our TV screens, Keri Russell was and still is an amazing presence. Specially that she does not age. Never get bored watching her play different roles. Glad she was in "The Americans." Hoping to see more of her on TV.
Keri Russell is Hooooooooot.......but as a straight male I can see what she loves about Matthew Rhys. He has a great personality .......he could easily be a comedic actor.
the most underrated show ever, when i heard about the show i thought is about Americans life or the Americans dream extra extra but i was WRONG its completely the opposite, its the best spy show ever i mean EVER
Martha was cool, Stan was cool. The Nina arc was cool. When Paige started to train was cool, but sadly it all ultimately amounted to not much. I feel a bit cheated out of 60 hours but I guess no regrets.
@@reality8605 I can't tell you how disappointed the Nina arc got me. I kept thinking the end was a dream sequence and she's not really dead. Similar for his son's arc, they were kinda detached detours imo
I am born in the CCCP :) They both are great in this show, so much talent and the script is fantastic. Matthew Rhys' Russian on the show was really at a good level, one barely could hear the accent. Keri Russel was a genuine American in that regard :)
I am somewhat astounded and subsequently impressed by Mathew Rys' verbal eloquence. If he were not an actor, I would consider him a master of linguistics.
The show in the UK was treated so shabbily in the schedules. The final series was aired very late at night which I didn't know. I must've missed 4 episodes before I caught it. Shocking treatment for one of the best US shows from the last 10-12 years.
Same here in Ireland, I only caught the final three episodes of S6 because it was on late at night and not really publicised in terms of being back. I eventually saw it on Amazon Prime which was good
This guy is a super actor. He’s got the American accent on point. He ‘s as funny as his character Kevin in Bro & Sis. So now I have to watch The Americans.
It took me a few minutes to realize that Matthew Rhys is not faking an accent here. In real life he sounds so different from in The Americans that it's hard to accept it and his personality is so different. The dude is a great actor
just finished binging the americans and came looking to hear matthew rhys' natural accent. had no idea he was so funny. i've never seen him in anything before (that i recall). so i'm off to find more of his offerings. i've liked keri russells work for years.
They’re very cute together. I think he knows he’s super lucky cause Keri Russel seems very cool and probably keeps him on his toes. He seems like a sweetheart.
I'm a little late to the party.... but better late than never! Have only just recently heard of The Americans and look forward to bingeing it hardcore! ❤
LOL! I JUST FINISHED IT 30 minutes ago. My advice is don't look it up anywhere because the net is full of spoilers. I get that because the last episode that I just finished was released 5 years ago on this May 30th. You are in for a treat because it is amazing!😎😬
When Matthew mentions a scene from 2x01 and Stephen (having already said he is a bit behind) says he needs to catch up...When he really means he has seen a bit of season 1 and thats it.
Hannah!!! - in Stephens defense, I am an avid fan of the show and not only watch each episode but also read countless recaps and reviews of each episode, yet I did not recognize which scene Matthew was describing.
Elle Cook have you SEEN the show? As I recall, the FIRST scene of the pilot is her having sex with some married defense contractor or something and sticking her finger up his butt. Made QUITE the first impression, that's for darn sure.
that's false about her sticking her finger up his butt. I don't recall any such scene on The Americans, despite the copious amount of sex and violence there is indeed there.
This was a super series! We watched it a second time with DVDs from our library. This really happened too, not these two literally, but the USSR's program and Reagan's efforts to stop it.
Plenty have..Mad Men , Breaking Bad, The Sopranos, Better Call Saul. Watching The Americans now on binge watch...and it is good, but not as good as those.
English is not even Matthew Rhys’ first language. So he is a Welshman speaking English playing a Russian pretending to be an American.
Crazy, I'm American and watched the entire series. I had no idea until I watched some of these promo things after the show ended. He is awesome!
OP is right, his first language is Welsh. Google is the best.
And he does that well!
Of all the British accents, Welsh is my favourite. Rhys' accent is muted, probably through living in London and NYC I assume. Charming lad he
@Diver...No biggie. So was Richard Burton. It's rumored he needed much work done with a diction coach to become understood.
Has Matthew Rhys ever worked as a comedian? He is downright hilarious!
D LG I know he's done a very funny episode on Archer. But that's probably it, just guesting on diff things.
He has a very droll British sense of humour.
Aurelia Ansah Don’t you mean Welsh?
No, I mean British which encompasses Wales, England & Scotland.
MikeRiderOOO One of those Americans are you?! Stop eating all that English propaganda your taught in your education system. Wales is not England. They are descended from different people. English (Saxon, Jutes etc), Welsh (Brythonic Cymru, Romans, and as far back as Trojans)
Matthew Rhys’ actual personality is such a bizarre departure from the characters I’ve seen him play. Like him as himself is just... wow.
This is a testimony to him being an extraordinary actor.
Just the fact they chose Matthew Rhys to play that role. He kills it. I am shocked his dialect is so smooth in The Americans. You can not even tell he is Welch. Holy. This guy deserves many awards for The Americans. That show is just phonemonal. One of the best shows I have ever seen.

Welsh*
Please don't say Welch. It's racist
Literally one of the best shows ever! And the ending does it justice too. Every season was amazing!
The way he just arrests his upper lip kind of gives it away.
In season four, I laughed & laughed when Gaad said," I'm in charge of counterintelligence and my secretary married a KGB officer. " A great show and a lovely couple!
John boy
The shock when Mathew starts speaking and you are like why is he faking an accent. Then you google and he is Welsh. I feel like I have been lied to. I am actually questioning what is real. Wow he is a good actor.
Maxine kampire Half the actors in Hollywood are either Brits or Aussies.
I remember the day that I not only found out that he was Welsh, but also that they were married! It made the show so much better knowing both of those things!

MrJuicekrew Partners then! 😊 😉

Well, he makes her laugh. And she responds. Yes, good relationship.
@@TimeIdle apparently it's all men want.
matthew is so protective of keri it's adorable
I hope she's protective of him 'cause he's sexy as hell.
Rhys...great sense of humor. Very dark. Very Welsh.
@M Realzola Bale has a southern English accent because he grew up there. Was only born in Wales.
He has a Welsh accent brought up in Cardiff, Wales. He can speak in his native Welsh.
Those 2 are much funnier in real life than you would expect... what a cool couple!
She's soooooo sexy 🔥🔥
@@DG-pb8cb - They're so sexy and cool TOGETHER. An authentic relationship
Excellent 👌
Matthew's so ridiculously funny he makes people around him seem funny by exposure
I'm sorry, but Matthew Rhys was cracking me up the entire time
me too. His comedic timing seemed to throw Colbert off a bit though.
Matthew Rhys deserves to be in a comedy movie.
@Ian...For that reason, I'd like to see him as Charlie Chaplin.
He was hysterical in one episode of Archer.
Hé was in: Love and other desasters.
Ever since "Felicity" graced our TV screens, Keri Russell was and still is an amazing presence. Specially that she does not age. Never get bored watching her play different roles. Glad she was in "The Americans." Hoping to see more of her on TV.
"She's pretty. He's lucky."
I see what you did here :-)
on point and yes! by that slow footed scientist spy who was pronounced a Russian hero ( by someone in Russia, maybe Arkady?) in season 5.
''couple of kids...The american dream...''
He's gorgeous..she's lucky
:)
Keri Russell is Hooooooooot.......but as a straight male I can see what she loves about Matthew Rhys. He has a great personality .......he could easily be a comedic actor.
SuperEdge67 agreed lol 💯💯
As a straight female I agree and I agree.
As a Super Straight male, she's too boney for my taste. Not having the right 'proportions' drastically drops her score.
the most underrated show ever, when i heard about the show i thought is about Americans life or the Americans dream extra extra but i was WRONG its completely the opposite, its the best spy show ever i mean EVER
feras hdaib The title made me not want to watch it at first!
Martha was cool, Stan was cool. The Nina arc was cool. When Paige started to train was cool, but sadly it all ultimately amounted to not much. I feel a bit cheated out of 60 hours but I guess no regrets.
Dunno about most underrated EVER (Rectify? The Leftovers? Superstore, if you're into sitcoms?) but it's definitely criminally underappreciated.
@Cindy Tartt It's on Foxtel in Australia, I think. A lot of good shows are, unfortunately.
@@reality8605 I can't tell you how disappointed the Nina arc got me. I kept thinking the end was a dream sequence and she's not really dead. Similar for his son's arc, they were kinda detached detours imo

aww i hope they never break up
they can't "break up" because their togetherness is a sham anyway.
@@kurzackd So their 2yr old son Sam is fake? Damn, that's the best robot baby ever!
@@btrfly6499 he's for cover, just like Paige and Henry were in the show. :P
@@kurzackd ha! :)
You can tell they're really in love. 🥰❤
I love them as a couple, and I love their show. The Americans is what I call quality TV (which is so damn rare).
I am somewhat astounded and subsequently impressed by Mathew Rys' verbal eloquence. If he were not an actor, I would consider him a master of linguistics.
A "cunning Linguist" I imagine.
Por que no los dos?
That's called British.
Gabor Pete It’s actually called being Welsh.
Brendan O'Toole Bravo! I almost missed that! You bet he is! I Would Be!!
Matthew Rhys is great! He should be far more popular. Great actor. It’s so crazy to here how good he sounds American on the show.
I love this rivetting show and Matthew Rhys is an amazing actor . And ridiculously funny 😄. Who knew? 🤣 An unexpected but pleasant surprise.
Keri looks like she could eat Matthew up with a spoon. I don't blame her, he's gorgeous and very, very charismatic.
Rhys is freakin' funny! What the hell?!
Hello?
how do you think he locked that down?
He's British and he's charming. The hell with that guy.
Lemon Wedge you forgot married an amazing and beautiful woman. Yeah he's a bastard.
Im shocked at his accent. LMAO. Didn't know he was a Brit before.
They have such chemistry on the show and in real life.
Although check out their body language. She’s pulled away from Matthew and he’s kinda pulled away from her....?
Absolutely
Matthew Rhys and his accent is so adorbs =)
I just luv Matthew Rhys!!! (loved him from “Brothers & Sisters!”). 🤗
Yeah, me too.❤❤❤

Same in Germany. Nobody's really watched it. Big shame!
im still shocked they are actually a couple in real life
I don't know them, but saw her looking at him and tossing her hair. I was like "whoa", are they a couple? Googled for confirmation.
HKim0072 they're literally talking about the children they have together in the clip. I think that's confirmation enough
The first 1-2 minutes.
theabstrakt84 THEY ARE SO AWKWARD!!
I didn't know, I'm blown away! How cute is that?
This guy is a super actor. He’s got the American accent on point. He ‘s as funny as his character Kevin in Bro & Sis. So now I have to watch The Americans.
The Americans was the best series I have ever seen
Hands down my favourite performance by any actor.....in any TV show....ever. Absolutely sublime.
It took me a few minutes to realize that Matthew Rhys is not faking an accent here. In real life he sounds so different from in The Americans that it's hard to accept it and his personality is so different. The dude is a great actor
They're so cute together. It's weird to see them being so cheerful in contrast to their rigid relationship in the series.
One of the best shows on the air, can't believe it's about to end!
One of my alltime favorite TV shows. Great story and even better directing and acting. No other show comes close.
I really like when Matthew smiles. I don't know why....
im from singapore and i love this show omg!! no way they met the prime minister that's amazing
Any Owl House fans here? Matthew Rhys is the voice of Philip/Belos.
Such a underrated show...
Underrated? It's got 16 awards and 58 nominations.
Underwatched yes. Underrated no. The show is considered like one of the best shows on TV.
just finished binging the americans and came looking to hear matthew rhys' natural accent. had no idea he was so funny. i've never seen him in anything before (that i recall). so i'm off to find more of his offerings. i've liked keri russells work for years.
Um Matthew Rhys was just way funnier than Colbert! I had no idea he was so hilarious
I freaking love him!!
Matthew Rhys is absolutely hilarious and so good on the show. His Welsh accent is so beautiful and he does the American one to perfection!
I've always known Matthew Rhys was Welsh but had never watched an interview with him before. WOW. So different than Phillip
His performance alongside Tom Hanks in _A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood_ was pitch perfect.
He is fu*ckin' hilarious...the knit wear has changed, lol!!
The Americans is so underrappreciated and so little known ! Keri and Matthew are very cute ! 🇨🇵
Matthew is hilarious! Keri, get it gurl!
Matthew Rhys really is as pretty as his wife.
They're awesome, great chemistry. Sad the shows final is tonight but very pumped to see it lol.
Matthew Rhys is so gosh darn attractive.
They’re very cute together. I think he knows he’s super lucky cause Keri Russel seems very cool and probably keeps him on his toes. He seems like a sweetheart.
They really nailed that show!

@@lengl1125 That's great!
OH, there was the scene where......... LOL! ❤
😂@ "Steak dinner vs State dinner" LOL
Personally Matthew Rhys Evans is one of the best British actor in recent time.
I look at Matthew Rhys and I still see Kevin Walker!!
Marcus Chan True, I expect the siblings to "conference call" any second now
I actually thought he was gay in real life. I'm so easily-led.
hahaha... And to all be bitching about the fact that he's on TV
Thought he was gay AND American. lol... Although I think the guy who played his BF is gay in real life (fingers crossed)
Me also
"YO! WHY DID YOU CUT YOUR HAIR??!" omg amazing.
Matthew Rhys , is as gud as any best actors in the world , the way he depicts emotions on his face without dialogue is greatttt
Anyone remember the scene between Philip/Clark and Martha with the Kama Sutra?!
That was sooooo funny! 😂😂😂
Yes. Absurd!
When Matthew mentions a scene from 2x01 and Stephen (having already said he is a bit behind) says he needs to catch up...When he really means he has seen a bit of season 1 and thats it.
Hannah!!! - in Stephens defense, I am an avid fan of the show and not only watch each episode but also read countless recaps and reviews of each episode, yet I did not recognize which scene Matthew was describing.
yes, caught out
I just love Matthew's very nice Welsh accent.
Yessssssss!!! My all-time favorite spy couple are back! I so love these two, they really are a sexy couple.
He is too funny! What an actor
Also keri is awesome on it
One of the best tv shows that I've ever seen, and i saw almost every tv show that has more then 7 star... for real!
Just started watching The Americans and I love it. Also only recently found out Matthew Rhys is Welsh like myself. 😊
Keri with the potty mouth. She's got Stephen blushing.
Elle Cook have you SEEN the show? As I recall, the FIRST scene of the pilot is her having sex with some married defense contractor or something and sticking her finger up his butt. Made QUITE the first impression, that's for darn sure.
I was making a joke on the cuteness of Colbert.
that's false about her sticking her finger up his butt. I don't recall any such scene on The Americans, despite the copious amount of sex and violence there is indeed there.
The finger up the butt is implied when Philip is listening to the audio recording Elizabeth made.
possibly...
Love love love this show!!!!!!!Keri and Matthew are so amazing. Sorry it’s the last season!
He is brilliant has Perry Mason
Damn he's a lot funnier than I woulda thought! Love the show more now.
I can't get over Rhys' actual speaking voice lol
Just finished season 6 , this show is one of the best show i have ever seen and I call it number one in the history of Hollywood 🤚🏻
Ahhhhhhh he’s Welsh !!!! Bloody Brilliant !!!!
they're so fun, I bet they are a blast to hang out with haha
Great great actors...Keri Russell was amazing.
Holy Crap Mathew Rhys is hilarious.
This was a super series! We watched it a second time with DVDs from our library. This really happened too, not these two literally, but the USSR's program and Reagan's efforts to stop it.
Best series ever. There are series that equal The Americans, but none that surpass it.
Plenty have..Mad Men , Breaking Bad, The Sopranos, Better Call Saul. Watching The Americans now on binge watch...and it is good, but not as good as those.
Tv was my babysitter too while growing up. Also my teacher and my rainy day friend.
Wonderfull show! Congratulations for both of you! Very nice couple. And Matthew, you're a lucky men! Keri is just amazing....! 😊😉
Matthew Rhys accent is insane
Jin Wong No, just Welsh.
Sounds perfectly normal to me? Stephens and Keri sounds insane. That might be because I'm from just outside Cardiff though.
I've loved Keri Russell since Waitress but Matthew Rhys is equally delightful in this 😂
I love you on Perry ❤️ Mason!!!
"Trying to think of a story that doesn't put us in a bad light but I haven't been able to come up with anything" 👌😂

They make a great pair!
The Americans is a great show: put the kids to bed and watch an episode ;)

Better than Game of Thrones. Probably the best show I have ever seen.
I love him more now, hearing his accents
As soon as I heard Mathew Rhys I could not stop laughing. This one seems like an accent... His accent in the Americans is amazing good.
