Some actors can become so iconic for a specific television role that it makes it challenging for them to try anything else. Thankfully, that hasn’t happened for Matthew Rhys, who delivered one of the greatest lead performances in the history of dramatic television with The Americans, but he has gone on to do more interesting work within the last year, thanks to The Beast in Meand Widow’s Bay. While it is exciting that he can dip his toes into so many different opportunities, Rhys gave one of his greatest performances on a show that was cancelled before its time. Perry Masonis one of the most underrated HBO shows of the 21st century, and its two seasons provide a fascinating mystery that any crime buff is bound to enjoy.
