Page 2 of Man in the High Castle

Well, it is based on the Philip K Dick novel (notable films based on his books: Bladerunner, Minority Report, Total Recall) so I suspect there is a proper conclusion, though I've not read the book and didn't know the story until I started watching the series. With Frank Spotnitz (X-Files) and Ridley Scott behind it, it might be worth sticking with it.

I'm only 2 episodes in so it's still sinking in at the moment. Not hooked yet.

Amazon have really pushed this, so I'm sure they expect big things from it, although they famously made a bit of a faux pas with the promotion in Noo Yoik.

Might get the book for xmas off Santa, but have two Si-fi books already to get through, and that will take a while to read at work (lunchtime of course, cough cough).

Second season teaser trailer is out there.

Season 2 now on Prime!

Not sure if it's the first episode, or the entire season, because that would mean going downstairs and turning on the TV and Amazon box to find out...

This is yet to really grab me.

Perhaps S2 will do it...

Amid all the other stuff I have to catch up on this looks a bit 'Broadsword to Danny Boy' to me.
Though being based on a Dick novel is a definite plus.

Its all episodes Rob.

Just finished Season 2, I think being more familiar with the characters than the first series, there was less intrigue so it was a bit slow to ramp up, but come the last few episodes, I was gripped.

SPOILER:
Though I wrongly got the impression from the first season that Hitler was the man in the high castle, because well he was there in the end with all the films, watching them in a high castle.

And it made total sense that he would have a secret resistance somehow working against his own nazis to get the films, as it meant whether people thought they were giving them to the resistance or the nazis, Hilter always got them.

But turns out that was completely not the case, which threw me for a few episodes in the second season.

Cool, just finished both series of Narco's on Netflix so it's a toss up between this and WestWorld as to which is next...
