The Americans
I've been watching this show for a year now and the 2nd season has just started. It takes place during the 80's at the height of the Cold War.
I'm in heaven each time I watch it because of all the old cars in it.
Last night the main characters had Oldsmobiles, 70-72 Cutlass and an 80's Olds, and the car they were following was an 84 Toronado. GM seems to be represented a lot but the other big three are right there also.
The show is like a time machine much like Mad Men which takes place in the 60's and 1970 for the last season.

I did not see the whole show but did see the girl driving a nice light blue Omega and the guy pulled up behind her driving what looked to be a 70 442 Vert with 70 sport mirrors and the correct S 442 steel hood but it had supreme grills in it.

The original trailer for the first season showed a 76/77 cutlass in someone's driveway, obviously I was intrigued right away. Several Olds models have been shown. Kerry Russell is easy on the eyes also. The chick that looks like Siouxsie Sioux... not so much.
