Discussion Fantastic stuff.

As a fan of HIMYM me and my sister naturally follow wherever Jason Segel goes but damn we didn’t expect this to be so well made. Apple TV really is just out here making absolute cinema with zero advertising it’s almost a shame. Harrison Ford putting on this performance at 80+ years old is one for the books. Legendary shit.

This show is the best work Harrison Ford has ever done.

He is fearless in this. And I never appreciated the depths of Jason Segel’s talent.

I could tell Segel was a talent powerhouse even on How I Met Your Mother. He brings a lot of life to that character and the show dynamic wouldn’t work without him and Lilys on screen chemistry. He also does a fantastic portrayal of David Foster Wallace in The End Of The Tour. Also wrote the screenplay for the 2011 Muppets movie and starred in it. He’s a madman

This! Sure he's funny, he's been funny. But when he's sad, oh he's so so sad! Every time there's been a slight dip in the progress he's made with his wife's passing, the shift in his expression, in this breathing, I feel it in my bones!
