FX has scheduled the series premiere of its new drama The Americans for Wednesday, Jan. 30 at 10 p.m.

The Cold War era drama about two married KGB spies (Matthew Rhys and Keri Russell) posing as Americans in suburban Washington, D.C. is created and executive produced by Joe Weisberg (Falling Skies). It is produced by Fox Television Studios and FX Productions with Joel Fields, Graham Yost, Justin Falvey and Darryl Frank serving as executive producers.

The Americans is FX's first drama premiere since 2011's American Horror Story, and part of the network's goal to launch at least two new dramas in the next year. The network has also ordered a pilot for The Bridge about two detectives hunting down a serial killer.
