The Man in the High Castle
Such a cool premise for a show. It's based in the year 1962 and on the fact that Japan and Germany won WWII. Japan occupies the west coast and Germany the east. The only part left unclaimed is most of the Rockies.
Of course there's a small US resistance, and they are in the possession of some old movie reels that show all of the real coverage of the US's victory. Both Germany and Japan badly want the tapes destroyed.
The pace is a bit too slow at times but definitely have to see how it's all going to play out. It's nice to see Rufus Sewell (from Dark City) again though.
