Note

Certain award groups do not simply award one winner. They acknowledge several different recipients, have runners-up, and have third place. Since this is a specific recognition and is different from losing an award, runner-up mentions are considered wins in this award tally. For simplification and to avoid errors, each award in this list has been presumed to have had a prior nomination.

This is a list of awards and nominations for The Americans, an American period spy drama television series that debuted on FX on January 30, 2013. The series stars Keri Russell, Matthew Rhys and Noah Emmerich.

The series has been nominated for a total of 102 awards, having won 29 of those nominations.
