"Man in the High Castle" returns to Amazon
Amazon Netwok | 12/17/16

Season 2 is here, 20 episodes this time. Picks up where season 1 ended. Seems to depart from the novel by introducing a parallel universe element: in their universe, the Axis won but one man is somehow accessing films from our universe showing Germany and Japan destroyed. Looks like fun!

I believe the second season is only 10 episodes...the same as the first season.

In Phillip K. Dick’s original novel there was a hint that the Allies actually did win the war.

Pre-scanned my later viewing yesterday. It is 10 episodes.

I’m saving this for Christmas for a binge while the wife is off to see the grand daughters in Portland for Christmas (just took her to the airport today)....last time I looked her plane was over St. Louis.....

I have only seen 10 episodes listed for season 2. By their titles it apears 10 will be the number.

Much better than season 1 and season 1 was good.
Just 10 episodes but a nice binge watch.

Looking forward to this, though I need to go back and re-watch S1 in order to be ready. I rather enjoyed the first season when I watched it last year.

Another Amazon Prime series I’m having a lot of fun watching is “The Grand Tour,” which is basically the original BBC “Top Gear” without The Stig or “Star in a Reasonably Priced Car.” I’m loving how they’re flipping the bird to the BBC.

Philip K. Dick’s estate must have made a fortune by now licensing his short stories and novels for screenplays and TV scripts. Well deserved, too - he was a great science-fiction writer.

I couldn’t get past actual history when I tried to watch this series. I stopped in the middle of the first episode

I watched the original pilot movie, thought it was pretty good,
Maybe some binge watching is in store for Sunday before and after the Pats/Broncos game....

I miss The Stig though.

1st season of High Castle was good but there were a lot of really slow parts.

Maybe that Christmas shopping is 99% done as of now I will watch some tonight or at least tomorrow.

I haven’t read the book. I borrowed it from the library but stuff came up and I had to return it (couldn’t renew it).

I am binge watching Season 2. I love this show. I wish they would put up the latest season of “The Americans”, for free, too. The last season available costs $2.99 per episode!

I discovered that I got it as part of my Amazon Prime membership this past Thanksgiving. Have now watched both seasons.
