Club High Castle Pre-Pandemic

There is so much I wanted to say, but I couldn’t fit every little detail, scene, and character interaction that amazed me into a single review. I may go back and do a Little Details I Noticed post in the future.  The Man in the High Castle (TMITHC) Season 3 is different from the first two, and while there were rumors of it having a positive outlook, I felt that it is the darkest and most depressing season of the show so far—this isn’t a criticism. If you haven’t watched it yet, strap in for the ride and grab a box of tissues while you’re at it. You will need them. Before I tread into spoiler territory, I just want to say that the acting, the visuals, and the costumes blew me away. Everyone involved with the show did such an exceptional job! Kenneth Tigar (Himmler), Rufus Sewell (Smith), and Chelah Horsdal (Helen Smith) deserve Emmys for their performances (well, everyone involved in the making of the TMITHC does!). And now for some spoilers! I’ve broken down the r...

I am watching through Season 3 of The Man in the High Castle and am feeling the urge to write because I haven’t written anything substantial in a long time—that show has a way of inspiring the muse. I’m watching the final episode tonight, and the fictional stakes couldn’t be any higher, oh how turbulent my emotions are right now. I’ve been avoiding spoilers by limiting my Internet access all week, while it is easy to do on days I work, the weekends are another story. I can’t wait until this self-imposed Internet exile is over with. I feel like I’ve been missing all the High Castle action on Twitter, but I just can’t binge good, thought provoking shows. I honestly tried! There’s just something about the anticipation of waiting for the next episode and wondering about your favorite characters that I can’t resist. I love thinking about the previous night’s episode—What is John going to do next? How will Kido react when he sees something? Will Robert survive the trip home? —until...

Amazon’s The Man in the High Castle Season 3 will be here on Friday! THIS FRIDAY! I can’t tell you how much I am looking forward to it. I mean, we’ve had to wait two years for it. I’m already plotting avoid-spoilers-at-all-costs tactics because anything short of not using the Internet for 10 days is risky. 10 days = 1 episode per day because I like to savor each and every one! No show captures me quite like this one. I know that if I binge watch it, I’ll forget half of it...and then there is the fact that I cannot sit still for that long. Here’s to hoping my tactics work! Don’t forget:   The Man in the High Castle will be at New York Comic Con on Thursday, 4 October! EDIT:  The official TMITHC Twitter account says that it will be in the Hammerstein Ballroom at 6PM EST.

I’ve been meaning to make a recap post ever since they dropped that badass trailer, but every time I sit down and think about it, I change my S3 theories and have more and more questions. Here is the trailer for those of you who haven't seen it yet or just want to enjoy 2 minutes of badassary: Season 3 Official Trailer I don’t even know where to begin! There are so many things going on in a multiverse of directions, that my head hurts (in a good way)! One thing is for certain: Season 3 is going to differ greatly from the previous two seasons. Is that good or bad? Only October 5th can tell. My Takeaways: 1. The Resistance plays a huge role in this season with Juliana at the helm, gathering support, sharing the films, and lighting a fire under people who were otherwise complacent.    2. There is a growing movement against Chief Inspector Kido that turns violent at one point (the clip they played at SDCC made it look like they were angry about fuel prices, but...
