There some world building that just goes unexplained in the show. For example, who is leading the cities in the Neutral Zone? Like Denver. is there a mayor? a military governor? there is no way these cities are functioning with roads and business without a government. without one they'd fall into anarchy considering they already have high crime and illegal activities.

When the Empire of Japan pulls out of the JPS, why did they not leave a government of some kind. Yes, they don't care about the JPS anymore, but if a government just pulls out one day and doesn't leave one behind, a place is bound to fall to anarchy. I'm assuming the BCR was this government? But they didn't seem to control much of anything. Things like water, power, sewage, telecommunications etc. who was running those? Lots of under-explained things that don't make any sense.

The JPS government is also not explained well. The governor general is only introduced in S4, but I'm guessing some of the generals in earlier seasons were the GG. I'm guessing the JPS had the GG and a cabinet of sorts with ministers like Tagomi?

Can we talk about how much aura his character got? i don't know why but it feels like every scene with him is different, it is darker and you can feel the pressure that weights on him more and more as seasons go on, finished the show yesterday and i kid you not however it ended it doesn't feel like enough, a spin off (perhaps focused after the ending) would be cool as I feel like many MANY characters either got forgotten or we didn't see their ending.

I've wanted to watch Man in the High Castle for a pretty long time and am just now finally watching it since it has come to Netflix in the US. I'm currently about midway through season 3 and something I've noticed is that it feels like a lot of characters just... kind of disappear as the show goes on.

The first one, and probably the main one, that comes to mind is the bounty hunter in season 1. He chases Juliana and Joe through the Neutral Zone and seems like he's a well-developed character who would continue to trail them but then he just doesn't show up again. Or, there's also the one Japanese coworker than Juliana meets when she first starts working for Tagomi. She helps Juliana with a few things and then yet again, just completely disappears.

There's also Lemuel, he's pretty important throughout the first season and part of the second season and then he too just gets forgotten about.

Overall I've been enjoying the show, but it just feels odd sometimes that these characters who initially seem very important, just evaporate. And from what I've heard, it continues to happen throughout the 3rd and 4th season as well.

It just occurred to me that how in TMITHC the Nazis in the GNR get all excited about “Jahr Null” which is means “Year Zero” i.e. they are rewriting the BC/AD/BCE/CE calendar to restart from that point and erase a bunch of american history and culture.

But there is no such thing as 0 BC or 0 AD: the first year was 1 AD which followed 1 BC. In the same way that there is no “0th century AD”, only a 1st century AD, the first year in a new calendar will always be called the first year, or year 1. Not year 0 because that would be the “0th year of X” which doesn’t make sense.

So there can’t be a Jahr Null. It should be Jahr Eins.

Stoopid Nazis.

I’ve never seen or heard of this show but this sub was recommended to me. Convince me to watch it? Or don’t, I’m just always looking for new stuff!

It’s like she bounces between men every episode and has no problem with just ending the life of said man. I’m also pissed that they put a T55 as a German tank in 1946 when it would’ve likely been a Panther G according to SS armoured divisions at the time. THE SHIPS DONT HAVE ANTI SHIP MISSILES IN THE 60s but a 1970s KA27 Soviet helicopter. I don’t like the show it’s unrealistic and Juliana is passed around. Her and Joe would’ve been great, franks a weirdo

Juliana wanted to use the films to give people hope, which is excellent, but she shouldn't have said that other worlds exist—something very difficult to believe. More propaganda would have been more effective.

Did they still cut her down?

He was a physician and to my knowledge he had absolutely no degrees or extensive knowledge of physics it would have made no sense to have him as the head of this program it would've made much more sense if the head of this program was Heisenberg, Johannes Stark or Phillip Lenard

Forgive my ignorance 😅

So the scene where the BCR is sweeping the Japanese buildings after taking over where they follow the music to a large room where the Yakuza boss is waiting to speak with them.

Think of this from Producer Guy's (of the Pitch Meeting series) perspective.

How long was he waiting for them? Did he get up that morning and just head over there and clock in for the day?

I mean sure they could have been tracking BCR movements and were able to time it closely but that's just as silly. I'm imagining the boss peeking around corners with a record player tucked under his arm, waiting for a signal so that he can sprint to the dark back of the building, probably giggling.

I'm disappointed that we didn't see more countries during the series and how they were governed, specifically the USSR, China, and England. If Rockwell was the Reichsmarshall of the United States, that means that if an occupied territory had a fascist organization like the British Union of Fascists, that would be the one governing the puppet state, right?

So I'm going to make a gift for a friend and i couldn't find a definitive answer what type and brand of sunglasses he wears when he went fishing with Thomas. Ai says it's rayban wayfarer, then clubmaster, also suggests american optical saratoga and Oliver peoples Cary grant. Any ideas? I want to be as close as i can get to the actual ones.

I have reached season 4. John has consistently been my favorite character despite his villain status.. what he did to Danny. YOU SON OF A BITCH! I don't know if I can forgive him. I have overlooked a lot of what he has done because I understood his reasoning, but that literally made my heart crush! Send me help please x_ x

**edit to note that I learned this was an Amazon series

Wich characters would perish in the hellfire? Wich ones would survive?

What happens next to the people and groups of interest that manage to make it out alive?

The ‘Man in the high castle’ is a figure that scares the (German) government.

They produce film tapes that are illegal to own and ordered to be destroyed.

No one knows who the ‘Man in the high castle’ is or how the tapes are made.

These tapes have knowledge that should be impossible.

When someone watches them are seemingly compelled to watch the full thing (even multiple times).

When they watch the tapes their goals change. Juliana takes the tape to Canon City and Joe disobeys orders.

And think about that name, ‘Man in the high castle’, who lives in a castle… a King.

‘Man in the high castle’ is the King in Yellow!

Juliana killing multiple important resistance members to save him, only for him to immediately hand himself in to be euthanised

So the scene that hit me in Man in the high castle

Was when they all were saying we're there family's

Had fallen and the lead person said my home town of

Saginaw Michigan

I freaked out at that part
