random000 4 points 4 years ago*. 5/5 stars.

End result of this promising series which projected a very large trajectory is that everyone was cheated of that vision & the premature conclusion was very very extremely psychologically unsatisfactory in several senses of the word.

The western theatre story arc started out with promise, but the end, it was very inconsequential & the most dangling loose unanswered ends. Since the western arc was so underdeveloped & partially aborted, it was nearly a waste to tell & took much away from the eastern story arc, which is where the bulk of the creative development was placed.

While I can see why the total series arc wound up where it did, it’s obvious that’s not what the much longer range plan was projected. Pulling the plug on something like this, which had such grand vision, is in itself, unforgivable for those who’ve invested so much into it. That Aammazzon would do this, behaving in a way like clueless treacherous commercial broadcast tv would conduct itself, is a demonstration therefor to me that ammazzon should be seen in the same manner & isn’t worthy of anything else from its potential public when entrusted with its best property.

Given that those who had ultimate power in regards to this series abused their power & screwed everyone involved over, I think that it ended okay… especially since they could’ve done several things with the limited time they had to conclude very rapidly a much larger planned series story developmental arc.

Coulda gone in several directions. This is the one they chose. It isn’t psychologically satisfying, but it’s acceptable keeping in mind the abuse aammazzon premeditatedly dealt to it.

For those who love P.K. Dick but haven’t taken this road yet::: It’s okay. A lot of Dick’s premises don’t get this kind of love, attention or budget. You’ll not regret what is accomplished here. But you’ll be in pain once concluded.

This is a very well done series. The cast is top notch and do a great job. The story unfolds in a timely manner with very few slow dry spots. Every episode draws you in more and more. This is a binge worthy series. However, watching season 4 with no English subtitles took away form the experience. The series actually has a really good ending and its a pity more than half of it is lost due to no subs.

Everyone should watch this stunning production! On my TOP 3 Favorite Shows Ever!

mjbourquin 1 points 5 years ago.

Yes! Thank you primewire gods. Only bad thing is all the subtitles are in German for the newest 4th season.

torrac 1 points 5 years ago.

Love Philip K. Dick this show had somehow passed me buy until I saw a comment (ty @Frankie Frinkie) got gripped from the start binged in 4 days superb the acting was top notch morose for large parts but there was some touching moments and dark humour I also enjoyed the quotes and refrences from books films etc. will binge again sometime 10/10

It was on Amazon same as MITHC and is an antholgy similar to The Twilight Zone .

really liked the finish to s2. finally moving along a bit. And who doesn’t love ole crazy Jimmy James (News radio- Stephen Root)? BTW, I find the acting in this so excellent for a series.

Tiger8me 1 points 6 years ago. 5/5 stars.

This is a really well acted, often intense, always moving show that if you just stick with it becomes a favorite you look forward to watching. Makes me so happy to live in the world where the Allied Forces won.

Doto 1 points 6 years ago.

Well, just finished the first season and, man, do these guys do the doom and gloom well! lol
Not one smile in 10 eps til the very last second lol.
And though it feels a bit slow at times I find it pretty good and kept me interested.
On to S2

LuxxyLuxx 1 points 5 years ago. 5/5 stars.

Im really going to miss this show :(

Doto 1 points 6 years ago.

Well, I’m half way through s2 and now a little depressed. Though I’m not sure where it will take us I thought it would (and was eventually) drive towards a happy ending that all could enjoy, but being about ‘the grasshopper lies heavy’ it doesn’t seem very possible….but, to be cont’d, so I’ll see I guess.

Doto 1 points 6 years ago*.

All caught up and now I gotta wait a fricken year! I hate these release all at once series….Especially one as good as this turned out to be.

SethMythrax 1 points 4 years ago. 5/5 stars.

Excellent show. Glad to have seen seasons 3 & 4 here. The end sure was a twist I didnt see coming. I could see the Nazi’s turning on the Japanese like they did in this show. Nothing against Germans, but the Nazi’s were ruthless & evil even if they did have cool weapons & uniforms, lol.

Thanx for the share…….

The strongest thing that The Man In The High Castle has going for it from the the get go is the way the show looks. It’s a stunning looking programme, absolutely beautiful in fact. The San Francisco scenes in the Japanese occupied territories are vibrant, thriving, like Chinatown spread out over the whole of an entire city. It looks absolutely foreign, but at the same time, it still looks like San Francisco. Love that beautiful city.The show takes its time, moving patiently, and it takes a while for characters to develop beyond their initial impressions.High Castle is set in an America split into territories belonging to the Germans and Japanese, where its citizens have relatively stable lives with low unemployment and crime. However It’s not the sort of show that can be watched while doing other things, a lot happening and requires the viewer to pay attention. The story line the visuals the performances, flawless. One of the best television dramas to be produced..Not a big Dick fan,(play on words..Ha Ha moment) The author Philip K. Dick, Sci-Fi novels not a fan of that genre, but this one is outstanding….In my opinion this series is a must watch.

Sorta just discovered this, and also noticed they just ended it. See a lot of people liked it, but was wondering if they ended it in a good place or a cliff hanger? Considering a good binge watch, if it ended in a decent way, but not of it’s not ended badly or on a cliff hanger….
