I recommend reading the book, by Philip K. Dick. And, for that matter, all of his other novels. Great Science Fiction.
Which is not to say that the TV series isn’t worth seeing, too, if it’s anything like the book.
I’m very excited about this. I’m totally into alt-history scenarios, and this looks like a really good one.
My Amazon Prime ran out i just might have to renew it....
Just a pre-view of Obama doing the job that Hitler failed to accomplish.
Thanks for the notice—I hadn’t heard about this. Just started watching and looks good in the first five minutes
I have always held Philip K. Dick novels in high regard. I will have to check this out. Thanks for the ping dogg.

Are they actually going to produce the series? I got sucked into watching another series premier but there’s been no more shows.
Sounds interesting. For those of you who didn’t know, I wrote what I think is a pretty good counterfactual in which the Japanese win the Battle of Midway, called “Halsey’s Bluff,” available only on Amazon.
The main characters are married KGB agents who have infiltrated American society and live with us during the Reagan years.
Lots of real historical connections, Reagan really drove the Soviets absolutely crazy.
The funny thing is that you actually LIKE the couple and root for them not to get caught so they can "convert" to democracy and defect to the West. They give little signs of internal struggle now and then. I think the husband is ready to make the jump... the wife slow in getting there.
Viewer beware, however. This series has plenty of violence, sex, nudity... it is not suitable for family viewing.
The first Amazon produced show I liked enough to watch all the way through. Very well done and hope to see more.
It was good TV. Very good TV. Can’t say that about much anymore.
Except that if Hitler had gotten the Bomb he would have wiped out the Japanese too.
Ping to duplicate thread with some different posters.
Thanks for the heads up. I watched this this evening. A lot of potential. Very well done. Hope Amazon keeps it going.
As a history nut and big fan of “what if’s” I will definitely check this out.
