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

Ha, sorry, no ‘s’ at the end, it’s not the story in Dubliners.

I could watch any number of montages, time-appropriate or not, set to that wonderful song

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.

“Big White Cloud” from Vintage Violence, which I haven’t listened to too much.

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.

Is this a spoiler free thread or what. Cause I want to complain about stuff

Several implausibilities in s2e10 cheapened the experience. the handshake changing everyone’s mind and Reagan diverting Air Force one to Moscow (really????) and Ed’s last minute decision to fire on his own payload (???). Not to mention the wife/kid storyline was shit…and the reveal that the Russian dude isn’t really interested in poor Margo… …. Feel like the overall quality of the show went slowly but steadily downhill.

Is there an ETA for Season 3, anyone know?
― Maresn3st, Wednesday, 11 August 2021 14:42 (two years ago) link
They're already filming but imagine a show like this has a ton of post-production. There's no release date yet but guesses are early 2022
― Vinnie, Wednesday, 11 August 2021 14:49 (two years ago) link
Really enjoyed the show but agree with calstars, Several implausibilities in s2e10 cheapened the experience
