Finally, a smart show that's well-acted without using violence, sex or gore to thrill the senses. There're too many TV shows that rely heavily on violence, sex and gore already. And don't even try to compare this to the Americans. Completely different shows with different plots. Only similarity between these shows is the Russian spy theme. I enjoy the Americans for what it is. And I also enjoy Allegiance tremendously for what it is: fun, entertaining, pure enjoyment--an escape to another family's troubles without me biting my nails off each episode. The naysayers will pour acid on this show. But just let go of your inner critic and simply enjoy a show for its pure fun and entertainment. It's rather up-lifting and refreshing, for a change these days, without a heavy theme or excess use of violence and sex. Love this show!
