@fraumurasaki I’m not sure he has a recessive hairline as if it’s actually receding? Looks the same to me here in 2026 as it did when he was in Parade.
But this shot in Dalgliesh S1E4 stuck out to me when he pulls his hair back b.c Dalgliesh’s hairline never looks like this.
@fraumurasaki So he does have an ‘M’ shaped hairline. I first noticed it looking at this pic of him in Parade.
It was on full display during the Tony’s when he won for Ink.
I think he cleverly has his hair cut and combed so that it looks like he has a traditional straight hairline.
@dykelctics I vaguely remember thinking ‘oh god’ this plot… but remember it having a quality arc where she and Philip mutual respect for e/o so like most of The Americans it’s development paid off… def due for a rewatch
@The_Big_Chifa_ It wasn’t cancelled by Netflix. The cast was released from their contracts b.c Fincher wanted to step away to do other projects and would not let anyone else take over.
Its was outlined to be a five season show but Fincher dipped after two. :/
