I served 2 years in Soviet Army. The military uniform worn by Soviet KGB General is laughable. Absolutely horribly wrong! Generals did not wear boots in the office, regalia is wrong, haircut unseen in Soviet military. I was laughing so hard during the scene in Moscow KGB office. It's a caricature of a high ranking Soviet officer. I did not expect a complete correctness in depiction of Soviet realities but some of what I've seen was poorly done. Everyithing goes for naive American audience. I haven't missed a single episode yet because it is intriguing. I'd prefer to be focused on on the content. But when I saw scenes that supposedly took place in Moscow, listened to the conversations in Russian then I got an impression that authors cared about overall impression without paying much attention to details.
