The show where apparently Nazis won WW2? It seemed like an interesting premise but I never watched it. I assumed it was just going to be a dystopian show dealing with how life would be in a Nazi run USA. But this week I heard a commercial for it on the radio. Apparently The Third Reich found an alternate dimension or something and I was like "wtf?!"

I guess they really ran out of ideas.

It's based on a novel but I think it's really loose with the source material. I watched the first episode, it was okay

Are you really going to make such a blatant assumption about a show you've never watched? The alternate dimension was in play since the very start...its the entire basis of the show.

First four episodes.

Lost interest after that (I lasted one episode longer than my dad). Plot doesn't feel gripping enough to see through and, just my personal opinion, the lack of commercial breaks causes pacing problems for the episodes.

We make assumptions all the time. And sure I can make that assumption. It's just a TV show that is a personal choice whether to watch or not watch.
It wasnt a serious improbable discriminatory thing like assuming that a Jewish person was money hungry or assuming an Asian person eats cats.

It is definitely loosely based. the novel is a lot better, IMO.

The first season was amazing and the second was pretty good. But I'm not a fan of the third season and am glad this will be the final.

Yeah, I really liked the first two seasons but stopped watching 3/4ths of the way through the third and have no real interest in picking it back up.

You know what the expression about assumptions is...

As an engineer I've learned to never make assumptions, you really do need proper evidence to support any hypothesis.

Your assumption and incredible leaps of logic made you look like a fool, whether you are aware of it or care about it or not
