-
this closing seasing comes with great satisfaction as to how the story unfolds
-
Season 4 loses the audience at the end, the first 3 seasons lead us to know a character, just for him to backtrack on all the redemption we had though he earned.

**SPOILERS** I really enjoyed the first three seasons of TMitHC, but this one was a little lackluster. I also thought the finale was wrapped up too "nicely". To start with, the idea that the BCR would take control of the western states after the Japanese decided to leave didn't really make a lot of sense. For one, most of the black population in the United States would have been in the eastern US, so the ones that managed to flee the exterminations by the Nazis would have been a paltry few in number compared to the other groups. You mean to tell me they were the only organized group fighting the Japanese in the western US? We already know that's not true from the previous seasons. And then what? They just get to take control? The other people in the Pacific States are just cool with a group of communists for which membership means having to be black just ruling over them? Yeah, I don't think so. This season also leaned really hard into the alternate universes thing. And then John Smith was telling Helen that she could see her son? Didn't Hawthorne say she couldn't go to that universe because the other Helen was still alive? Maybe that's why he was talking about bringing him back to the Nazi USA universe. I don't know, I feel like they could have handled that better. It also didn't really make sense to me why "Dr." Mengele was running the portal machine. I get that they had test subjects for which the real "Dr." Mengele was so famous, but shouldn't it have been a physicist or engineer in control of that thing with Mengele just dealing with the test subjects and studying the 'results'? Why not Erwin Schrödinger? The real one died in '61, but he would have been in his late 70's had he survived to the time in the show. Totally plausible, and much more appropriate due to his work in quantum mechanics. Anyway, these are minor things compared to the show just feeling rushed toward the end. I get that they were probably just trying to wrap it up, but I feel like they could have gone with a little more open-ended but optimistic ending and have it be way better than what we got. And I liked the idea of the BCR being involved, but having them become the rulers of the west just didn't make a lot of sense.

I devoured every Philip K Dick novel in my childhood 40 years ago, and this series really did justice to his worldview and the feeling of his writings. Great acting, superb production design and my own gripe is that the series had to end.
-
The ending without any spoilers ahead was one of most satisfying I have seen. Great script and execution. The acting in season 4 was top notch with all main characters getting their conclusions. Unlike some other shows this one ended like it should have.
-
I was really enjoy this show but the ending was a letdown particularly the ending of John Smith was a disappointment and didn't like there was no leadup how the BCR just overcame the Japanese so quickly, no buildup of their group compared to the resistance who had a storyline and progressed to defeating their occupiers while the BCR didn't have so much development throughout the series

Season 1 and 2 are very good, no big issues there. Season 3 you can spot some problems and you get a bit worried. Season 4, oh man... it's a train wreck. Literally. Season 4 has some good moments here and there, after all, even a broken watch is right twice a day, but overall abandons what it built and brings out of nowhere Black Communists (literally) to save the day! The final episode is just sad. All that building up to that end... really? They couldn't think of something better? Great characters with great arcs, specially John Smith and Kido, villains with dept, that you learn to ''understand'' and on the other side, for the finale, the ''good guys'' are just Black Communists that came out of nowhere to save the day. I guess the ''professional critics'' gave a high score because there were black communist women out of thin air to save the day and that gotta easily check a lot of ''woke boxes'' on their checklist. Would I recommend? Well. The series idea is awesome and Season 1 & 2 are great. Watch until Season 3 and pretend they never made another season and that you'll never know the ending, and that's a good thing, because the ending is bad, so not knowing the ending is better, because then it can be anything... even a good one.

Seasons 1-3 were very strong seasons then came season 4, what can i say it was disappointing, really rushed and not a satisfying ending. SPOILERS Killing off Tagomi (actor wanted off to do other projects) so early impacted on the story. Underwhelming how the group that appeared and somehow made the Japanese run back to Japan without any conflict. Some characters don't get a satisfying ending. Rufus Sewell was excellent through out the 4 seasons
-
The season was written to reflect political fads du jour and aged horribly. Scenes like the one where trained Marxist surveys real estate are just cringe-worthy, considering how it turned out IRL. Of course the writers were since outdone by multiple other shows.
-
Horrible season. They killed or written off most of the main characters, and the few that remained, except for Smith, were put in the background, while this new group of "black communist" appear out of nowhere and save the day somehow, and there is a focus on these new characters that came out of a Deus-Ex Machina. And in this universe, since the Soviets really didn't have much time to commit all of the atrocities they did commit in their real life counterpart, communism is never really questioned, and if anything, they push very hard the idea of not just of a communist state being the best option to even our current world, but also it is pretty obvious a push for 2019 far left ideologies that have become mainstream in the Hollywood scene, betraying the moral ambiguity of this series for a biased view of the world.
