Love PhKD and always found him far more nuanced with social commentary than he got credit for, especially in the way his stories are adapted. But hey, still might be cool even if it's altered or watered down.

Love me some PKD so definitely excited for this. I still want to see a HBO mini-series like 8 episodes long based on Ubik.

I highly suggest everyone reads everything by Philip K. Dick. All of his stories are really good. Some are REALLY strange (There was a chapter in Lies, Inc. that was written while the story teller was on LSD, strangest thing I've ever read) and some are just really creative and fun. Lots more movies and tv shows to come from them probably too, really looking forward to this one!

Read the pilot after reading this thread, and I really enjoyed it. I am really fighting myself to not buy the book, I just wanna hold out until Nov. 20th and binge watch the fuck out of this. I also really like the lead actress, saw her in some stupid shit that was on HBO late at night while working (something with Morgan Freeman). Anyways, the alt-history "Axis States of America" thing has been done multiple times, but its the whole is this propaganda or temporal paradox shit with the footage that really had me intrigued. Also the show had a believability that shows like The Americans get right, that's often decently difficult.

Btw, when she first watches the footage, just watching that scene I could feel what that would be like. I loved it. Ready for Nov. 20th. Most recent trailer for anyone else interested:

Seems only a shitty rip of Ep 02 is available in torrent land. However,Amazontells me to sign up for Prime Video even though I already have Prime. Frowny face.

Finally got around to watching episode 2... the 20th seems so far away now. Very smart of them to not only release the first episode to everyone but to release this second episode ahead of time to build word of mouth before the deluge.

So I just saw this onAmazonwhen I was looking at a sub for my theater room, and I have not watched it yet. I came here to ask if it was any good, and now I do not have too. I am going to watch the pilot tonight. And it seems just in time as the entire season comes out today. I LOVE the alternate reality world war 2 theme.

It's all free for prime members?
