I don’t want to admit how far into this show I was and the sense of loss I felt when I got to the end of S2. Except maybe others like VG and JM already said something similar, I think.

Man In High Castle is great (but also can be maddening & make you want to throw your tv out the window at times). The Imposter is another good alternative reality show (on prime)

Do you have a link to that imposter show, vg? Please! The stuff I’m googling doesn’t sound right.

Counterpart is so low key, definitely worth your attention but it absolutely doesn’t loudly telegraph the important parts — which are really the little characters moments and JK Simmons doing subtlety

Aha, cool, thank you!
― Tsar Bombadil (James Morrison), Wednesday, 21 July 2021 05:35 (two years ago) link
Counterpart is amazing! I think I raved about it on a different thread. I never would have made a connection between the two shows, but I can see it now that vg has mentioned it

In that video I posted Kinnaman is talking over some of the other cast members, which is kind of obnoxious, I think.

Apparently that whole Gary Cooper thing was just acting. Who knew?

Okay, since I pretty much trust y’all on these things I will take a look-see at this Counterpart.

It seems to affect a lot of recent shows with otherwise high production values but this show in particular seems to be not even trying to age up the actors with makeup when 10-15 years are supposed to have passed, with the exception of colonel droopy's fat thor arc -- and he ends up looking younger than in season 1 by the end!

Re: Counterparts S1E6 enjoyed the big reveal at the end, even though of course they had already made it pretty clear before

Have to say the use of pop music in Counterpart show is a little more sparing and subtle and less Forrest Gump-like than in the titular show. Particularly liked discovering this song:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZ55A__qO3oAlso there was a John Cale song I didn’t know too well that was cool.

Sorry, he's always good but, and I know I am dating myself, I always have to get over the tendency to still think of him as Stretch Cunningham from All in the Family.
