The show is definitely different. I kinda liked knowing that in this first ep that it was a fresh show and different from any other series on right now!

It does remind me a bit of The Man in the High Castle, but they go deeper here.

Thanks for starting.

The pilot was so great. Sad but beautiful.

All the episodes are sad, but they're always done with such artistic depth, they are nothing but beautiful

I can't think of a favourite scene, I was too bamboozled getting used to the tone of this universe.

Agreed. I just started watching The Man in the High Castle and, while I do enjoy it, I was a bit underwhelmed precisely because I expected more.

I watched the first 7 eps. I find it kinda compelling/bingeable, despite it not being exactly what I expected. Have you read the book? Do you think they did it justice?
