The Amazon series The Man In The High Castle is an adaptation of a Philip K. Dick novel for the screen. It takes an intriguing premise, post WWII America that has lost to the Axis powers who share ruling of the USA-The Greater Nazi Reich spans form the east coast to the Rocky Mountains where a "neutral zone" is located. The Japanese has the Japanese Pacific States which span from the neutral zone to the coast. There are resistance movements in both occupied areas and a sci-fi twist related to alternative worlds where the Axis did not win. It's an intriguing set up that doesn't always equate to spellbinding TV, but there's enough that kept me going through the four seasons-but it could have been better.
