Amazon: The Man in the High Castle
 

Pilot is available for free, so you can watch even if you're not a prime subscriber.

Because we can never get enough Dick.

Pilot was good. Will watch the rest of the season.

**** I have been wanting to read this for years but never did. Guess I better get on it before I watch.

So what all series got produced by Amazon? I watched a few pilots and I shouldn't have. There were several that I wanted to see and I'm pretty sure most got the axe.

Thinking the exact same thing.

I just read it a few months ago and it's...difficult.

It's hard to get deep into because of the speech/thought process of the characters and the I Ching being infused throughout. I loved the premise but honestly didn't enjoy the book much at all.

I could see how having it be a mini-series/film would make it much more accessible...

You've read other PKD, right? I think all of his stuff is pretty difficult. I mean, it's not Pynchon or anything, but it isn't exactly straightforward either.

I have not watched it yet, but io9 seemed to like it a lot and says it's 'wildly different from the book and still great'.

The title sequence is at that link too and I gotta say it's pretty sweet looking.

Started reading. Fell asleep while reading it. Not sure if boring or I was just in need of a nap.

Yeah, some of the main characters are very different. I remember the girlfriend being a fairly unlikable gunt. She's probably the main character in the pilot and completely different.

All in all I'd give it a 4 out of 5. I'll definitely be checking out the rest of the series...

Huh. Never posted after watching. Short version: I liked it. A lot.

Amazon's picked it up for a full season. Turns out it was their most-streamed pilot ever, so it was a foregone conclusion.

I watched the first 2 episodes of Bosch on Prime, its pretty good cop show.

I enjoyed the ****ed up humor that was in Salem Rogers too. leslie Bibb is smokin
