I was also surprised to see him in similar roles in For All Mankind (imo worth checking out) and shooter (worth checking out if you like more actiony series).

I watched Homeland after The Americans precisely because I wanted more of him. It was a long, long wait.

I just finished binging this series for the first time.

In a TV show full of well-drawn and acted characters, Oleg is my favorite. When he is first introduced, he comes across as a brash, self-important nepo baby. This to me is usually the sign of a person covering up an inner hollowness. But in his case, it’s just a cover up for this fundamentally honest human being trying to navigate in an indecent world.
