Hey! Couldn't find a thread about this with the search function, but considering the second season is coming out in few weeks I thought it was good time to bring it up. "The show is loosely based on the 1962 novel of the same name by American science fiction author Philip K. Dick. The story is an alternative history of the world in which the Axis powers won World War II. The United States has been partitioned into three parts: The Japanese puppet state Japanese Pacific States, which comprises the former United States west of the Rocky Mountains; a Nazi puppet state that comprises the eastern half of the former United States; and the Neutral Zone that acts as a buffer between the two. The pilot premiered on January 15, 2015, and was Amazon's "most-watched since the original series development program began."On February 18, 2015, the series was picked up for a ten-episode season, and the remaining nine episodes were released on November 20, 2015. A second season of ten episodes will premiere on December 16, 2016." I found the first season enjoyable, it was pretty well made and the story lines were interesting. If you haven't checked it out and are looking for a show to watch, I'd recommend giving it a try.

Philip K. Dick is one weird, crazy guy, and there's something about his brilliant insanity that made him particularly good at drawing people into paranoid, off-kilter worlds where reality is easily questioned.
I haven't read that particular story of his, but his works are frequently translated into good movies, so I'd be willing to give a TV show a try.

Watched the first season, really liked it. Also, for a fun fact: the castle Hitler resides in in the series is Castle Hohenwerfen which is only a two hours drive away from where I live. Drove past it countless times.

edit: yes it's streaming on web. sign up with Amazon, get the app and watch.
Excellent show. Good script, directing and acting.
Not going to work this side of the border. As it happens I've read most of PKD's work and I absolutely would have loved being able to see this show. The book is the only one for which he got the Hugo, though, imo, he's got other better novels (like Ubik).

The book is the only one for which he got the Hugo, though, imo, he's got other better novels (like Ubik). Oh, now I feel foolish. Didn't realize that Amazon streaming isn't available in Canada. The show is also filmed in part in Canada. It doesn't make sense business wise to exclude potential customers especially a large country like Canada- maybe there are tax, legal, trade reasons or just stupidity on Amazon's part?
Please, don't feel in anyway at all. It is the stupidity of Amazon correlated to the stupidity of provincial legislation... Instead of trying to find ways to make the streaming work with the local legislation they decided it's easier to ignore the canadian market as a whole.

I'm a big fan of the Jew Rupert Evans, I really like his acting in the series, its very good. (Hes playing Frink)
Loved the scene where the antiquary wanted Frinks help for making that fake Indian necklace.

Finished season 2 now. Fucking fantastic imo. Yeah, I just wonder how they plan to continue from there, if they do at all. I really liked Sebastian Roche's character. Bella Heathcote's character was pretty neat as well, easily my favorite female character on the show. But I like to see that the show doesn't always focus on the bad sides of the Axis, but it in some cases makes them seem more human. Like the characters opposite to them point out at times. I thoroughly recommend it, it only got better after the first season in my opinion.

Brilliant show i watched both seasons in a week, but its so different to the novel In the novel Italy is an empire, and Joe was Italian, Juliet and Frank were divorced, Hitler Died long time ago
But there was some interesting cross overs like with Kasura family and the Robert and how Robert perceives japs as stealing US culture for example
