Variety is reporting that TMITHC is Amazon's "most streamed original series!"

Thanks for posting the news Judy. I'm not at all surprised. I just finished watching the series and I'm very impressed. It's the most original series I've seen in over 10 years. I particularly enjoyed the second half of the series and I just loved the ending. Well done MITHC people and in particular Rufus

I can't wait for the second season, the ending of the first was mind-bending. It will be interesting to see how they pick it back up.

Great news! Thanks!

Thank you for all the news, ladies. Amazon have hit on a real winner here!

I have at least managed to watch the second episode, and I can't wait to see more. This is just so good. Not just because Rufus is in it, but he's doing an excellent job. I love the contrast of the Smith family scenes and John Smith at work.

And it certainly doesn't hurt that he's absolutely gorgeous-looking in this

I agree Kate. Hope you get to enjoy the rest of the series soon.

Absolutely awesome Digital Spy interview: www.digitalspy.com/tv/interviews/a779862/rufus-sewell-on-the-man-in-the-high-castle-and-why-the-era-of-generic-bland-network-television-is-over/

One of my favorite quotes from the interview:

Many actors say you have to like a character to play them. So how do you go about empathising with a character like John Smith?

This idea that you can't play a character without 'liking' them... I would describe that as 'from the tourist's brochure of acting'! But certainly you have to see it and feel it from your own perspective.

, what a fantastic find, rueful! Thanks for sharing, that was nice reading.

My favourite bit was Because they're trying to appeal to the widest possible base - including idiots!

Thanks for the info ladies. I will mention if it wasn't for EH, I wouldn't know who Rufus Sewell is. Now I do.
