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.
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!
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!
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)
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.
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 :)
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 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
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.
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.
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.
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.
I'm watching felicity. Binge watching, actually. lol I decided to find current clips ofKeri Russell and found this video. Thank you! I miss her as Felicity and wish they'd make a movie or something.
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.
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.
Holy shit! I've never been more convinced that someone was American! Finished this series a few years ago and never read up about the actors afterwards. Just randomly thought about the show and found out on wiki that he is Welsh! I had to hear this for myself!
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.
this guy is very underrated, he should be doing more movies
luvyou baby agreed
luvyou baby he’s very good in The Post
'Perry Mason' prequel premieres this weekend!
@@stdev. he's great as Perry Mason..have followed this talented guy since i saw him in Edwin Drood yrs ago..very underrated actor
He'd be an excellent Norman Osborne.
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.
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!

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.
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 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.

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.
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.
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! :)
"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
:)
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.
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 love them as a couple, and I love their show. The Americans is what I call quality TV (which is so damn rare).
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
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.
I just luv Matthew Rhys!!! (loved him from “Brothers & Sisters!”). 🤗
Yeah, me too.❤❤❤
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!!
One of my alltime favorite TV shows. Great story and even better directing and acting. No other show comes close.
You can tell they're really in love. 🥰❤
One of the best shows on the air, can't believe it's about to end!
Hands down my favourite performance by any actor.....in any TV show....ever. Absolutely sublime.
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
Um Matthew Rhys was just way funnier than Colbert! I had no idea he was so hilarious
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 in Germany. Nobody's really watched it. Big shame!
They're so cute together. It's weird to see them being so cheerful in contrast to their rigid relationship in the series.
Matthew Rhys and his accent is so adorbs =)
im from singapore and i love this show omg!! no way they met the prime minister that's amazing
They're awesome, great chemistry. Sad the shows final is tonight but very pumped to see it lol.
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
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.
His performance alongside Tom Hanks in _A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood_ was pitch perfect.
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.
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.
The Americans was the best series I have ever seen
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!
I've always known Matthew Rhys was Welsh but had never watched an interview with him before. WOW. So different than Phillip
Keri looks like she could eat Matthew up with a spoon. I don't blame her, he's gorgeous and very, very charismatic.
Wonderfull show! Congratulations for both of you! Very nice couple. And Matthew, you're a lucky men! Keri is just amazing....! 😊😉
They really nailed that show!
Really, 100 of 10 🎉
I freaking love him!!
Matthew Rhys really is as pretty as his wife.
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 🤚🏻
I really like when Matthew smiles. I don't know why....
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.
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.
Matthew is hilarious! Keri, get it gurl!
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

@@lengl1125 That's great!
OH, there was the scene where......... LOL! ❤
Just started watching The Americans and I love it. Also only recently found out Matthew Rhys is Welsh like myself. 😊
Matthew Rhys , is as gud as any best actors in the world , the way he depicts emotions on his face without dialogue is greatttt
Tv was my babysitter too while growing up. Also my teacher and my rainy day friend.
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?
Personally Matthew Rhys Evans is one of the best British actor in recent time.
Damn he's a lot funnier than I woulda thought! Love the show more now.
Anyone remember the scene between Philip/Clark and Martha with the Kama Sutra?!
That was sooooo funny! 😂😂😂
Yes. Absurd!
Love love love this show!!!!!!!Keri and Matthew are so amazing. Sorry it’s the last season!
Matthew Rhys is so gosh darn attractive.
😂@ "Steak dinner vs State dinner" LOL
Any Owl House fans here? Matthew Rhys is the voice of Philip/Belos.
The Americans is so underrappreciated and so little known ! Keri and Matthew are very cute ! 🇨🇵
I just love Matthew's very nice Welsh accent.
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
Great great actors...Keri Russell was amazing.
He is fu*ckin' hilarious...the knit wear has changed, lol!!
He is brilliant has Perry Mason
"YO! WHY DID YOU CUT YOUR HAIR??!" omg amazing.
they're so fun, I bet they are a blast to hang out with haha

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.
I hope that there will be a sequel. I loved The American's...it help through Covid-19
They were in the same dinner as the PM of Singapore...my country was mentioned😨
Wow, very much reminds me of John Ritter! Also, Keri is stunning!
And also omg, I had no idea that she was Felicity! I am old :(
@@blendonator John Ritter was also in Felicity!
One of the best show i ever watched ❤️❤️
I have the biggest crush on Matthew Rhys
They and the serie is marvellous !!!
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...
😍😍😍😍 My favorite married couple! Lovely show, lovely people!
Lovely indeed; they are unwed, however.
Excellent Series. I love them!❤
Holy shit!
I've never been more convinced that someone was American!
Finished this series a few years ago and never read up about the actors afterwards. Just randomly thought about the show and found out on wiki that he is Welsh! I had to hear this for myself!
Holy Crap Mathew Rhys is hilarious.
I love you on Perry ❤️ Mason!!!
I love him more now, hearing his accents
They make a great pair!
This was delightful
These two are too cute. He’s hilarious. She’s a gem. I hope they do something else together. ❤️
The Americans > GoT
mrn4s Why make it a competition? I love mango and nectarines both. I also love GoT and the Americans. Both amazing in their own ways. 😍
The Wire > The Sopranos > The Americans > [a bunch of other TV shows] > GOT
i've grown so much attached to the show. It was similar for game of thrones until the final season ruined it
Agreed
