This is a spoiler-free review for all 10 new episodes of The Man in the High Castle's third season - which premieres Friday, October 5 on Amazon Prime.
Still as morose and unyielding as ever, The Man in the High Castle returns, almost two years after its second season dropped, for a run that not only deals heavily with the fallout of Rufus Sewell's John Smith thwarting a German nuclear attack on Japan (while simultaneously losing his son back home), but also dives headlong into sci-fi, transforming the series into what it was always meant to be.
The show's embrace of science fiction has been a steady, escalating one. Being based on an award-winning novel by sci-fi luminary Philip K. Dick, yet still deviating heavily from the book back in Season 1, the series now - as it becomes an eager, extended hypothetical of where Dick's story might have ultimately gone - finally fits its shoes. It's taken a while, and a generous amount of patience given how demonstratively sad the story can be, but the series now has a purpose. It has an endgame. Season 3 shapes things so that it's not all just a "Well, this alt-Earth scenario sure seems terrible for everyone on every level, right?"
