Is Homeland better than The Americans?

[gambit1990]

never watched the most recent season of homeland.

just finished season 6 of the americans. it was good.

The Americans was consistently good throughout, and arguably got better in later seasons.

Homeland peaked in Season 1. It's had some really good episodes and seasons since then, but a lot of bad ones too. I don't remember ending an episode of The Americans and thinking it was reaching for compelling storylines.

There are only a few series over the years where everything after season 1 wasn't just trying to turn a hit single into an LP.
