I’m missing The Americans even more than I anticipated. Any scoop for me? — Jessica 
Well, Noah Emmerich stopped by this week to take EW’s Pop Culture Personality Test (you’ll see it soon), and while here, I baited him for some dish on the second season, which will see Susan Misner, who plays his wife, Sandra (good name!), promoted to a series regular. “I think there’s a lot to explore in the relationship with my wife,” he says, “but what’s going to happen, I can’t say, because I don’t know. Obviously, she’s an integral part of the show, and she’s there for the long haul.” Emmerich also shared that while his character Stan might be hoping for brighter days, he’s hoping for quite the opposite. “Stan, we left him in quite a tortured spot. He’s been put through the wringer pretty thoroughly, and I hope that continues because that’s fun to act,” he says. “And we do learn more about his backstory. I think there’s a lot of material to mine there. We’ve alluded to a lot of intensity and darkness in his past, and I think it’d be interesting for the audience to learn more about from where he came.”
