This show is fuckin great, really enjoying season 2 and I loved the first season. The cast is great too, not a single person pisses me off like Marie in Breaking Bad did lol.
Anyone else watching this on Amazon at all? Has anyone read the book? Might pick it up soon because I really like the setting and everything.

Someone gave me the book but I never got very far in it. Marijuana has ruined my attention span for reading.

Just one of the many reasons i have no desire to smoke weed anymore

I read the book back when I was a bookworm and read through tons of sci fi and fantasy, good stuff 
Did not know there was a tv adaption PK Dick has a lot of movie adaptions I have realized, probably becouse he wrote so much great stuff.
He was definitely ahead of his time, or maybe a bit late I think A Scanner Darkly is my favorite book and movie adaption of his 
Very intense stuff.

Under the Dome is laughable how bad it is. I'm talkin that shit will be shown in film courses on what not to do at one point.
Here's a scene where the actress has bandage over her pants... wtf....

Yea, the dome fell and cut a bunch of shit in half, an airplane slammed into it an exploded and a cow was cut in half with its entire cross section showing, that was cool as shit. It was such a cool pilot episode and it turned into such a steaming pile of shit it's almost like the director planned to fuck it up.

Anyone see the Radio Free Albemuth movie? I thought it was pretty interesting for a B movie.

I'm the super fan OP is trying to find I think. I actually Googled an alternate universe ww2 story before I found The man in the High Castle. So I was hooked instantly. I'm only 3 episodes into season 2 but it's an amazing story. It's exactly what the U.S. would be like.
For those who've seen season 1 PLEASE discuss: The film's are still baffling to me. Some show the Allies winning,another shows Joe Blake as an executioner during wartime. Another shows the west coast bombed by a nuke and tbh I'm getting them mixed up and not sure which if any of those alternate realities are real. I'm thinking maybe the axis found a way to.change the reality in which they lost the war. I could be way off though and I'm excited to see this play out. Season 2 took forever to come out.
