Title: Counterpart Post by: Abagadro on January 21, 2018, 11:38:52 PM New show on Starz. A spy thriller through a Phillip K. Dick lens with a bit of Gilliam's Brazil mixed in. J.K. Simmons plays the lead... and the lead. First episode was really good.

show. Title: Re: Counterpart Post by: kaid on January 23, 2018, 01:26:45 PM I liked it, too.

I think the confusion probably comes later when they start switching which universe they are in but the first episode is pretty excellent. Title: Re: Counterpart Post by: Abagadro on January 23, 2018, 01:51:41 PM If you look at things like phones, lighting, and architecture they have set up a split in aesthetic between the two. And Simmond's does a pretty good job making the characters separate. So I have hope that they can shorthand a lot of that.
