The Man in the High Castle
 
Any one else watch the Amazon produced pilot for this ? I thought it was pretty good. Held me interested all through. I hear it's been greenlit for the series so am looking forward to seeing what develops as I've not read the Philip K. Dick book that the series is based on.

Basically the story is that the Allies have lost the war and America has been carved in two with the East Coast being run by the Nazis and the West Coast by the Japanese. Obviously there's informers and resistance, but it looks good too.

In the main I really enjoyed the first 3 seasons, and was delighted to see that a 4th and final season will premiere on Amazon on November 15, 2019.

The story and production were unique, and held a person's interest even after the main premise was revealed. It seems that it would be tricky to keep adding on to the story in successive seasons, so it'll be interesting to see what they've done with it.

To my taste the casting was a miss on 1 or 2 characters, especially Frank Frink's (Rupert Evans), and there was at least 1 groaner side story, but otherwise the production is first rate. Special kudos for the costuming and settings, which have ruined many WWII era style movie subjects.

Okay then, good to hear. Will keep this one in mind for a rainy day.
