      @@arseniyonline1234555 , no, because not every infinity is equally large. For instance, there are infinitely many numbers between zero and one. Yet each of those numbers can be assigned to a number from between 1 and 2, or between 2 and 3, or between infinity and infinity + 1. So even though there might be an infinite number of universes not every possible arrangement of atmos will be covered.

    I think it would be hilarious for John smith and Kido to sing Happy Birthday. Smith’s pauses and Kido’s snarling would make it.

    This show is amazing. These two are hands down my favorite. The only other person I love just as much is Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa. Everyone else this last season has been pretty darn good too. Brennan Brown is pretty goofy and Alexa Davalos peaked my interest final episode.

      Rufus Sewell is a very well-known British actor. He does a perfect American accent. Check out Victoria on PBS. When he was younger he was the 'sexy man' but I prefer him older, more distinguished. He has starred in many films and series. Joel De Fuentes was more surprising to me, as he sounds and acts so differently than his character. He is great!!! The fact that they can fool us means they can act!

    Guys, GUYS, GUUUUUYZ!!!!
    I got a theory that can explain what happened, and, even more, give us hope!
    So, considering what was shown in the 3 season, we were expecting at least two more seasons to conclude all the story lines. We had the storyline of Michelle Dörmer, a propaganda filmmaker, who was arrested by Himmler for being in a relationship with Thelma Harris, the journalist, remember? We had Ed, who was put into a homosexual relationship exactly to tear attention to his character. He also mentioned he had feelings for Juliana, with the subtext "to be continued" (otherwise, what for?). We had Trudy Walker, Juliana's alt-sister, who was one of the key characters and had a very important place in the show. We had the "Catholic" commune, wich must have been brought up to figure as an independent entity alongside the BCR and the American resistance. One of the dumbest is the part with the girl who survives the Portal and travels to the other world during the early testings by the Nazis. Being an important event on its own, I would still not make such a fuss about it, but she was given extra time, with Hawthorne talking about her, saying something like: "But she, she is no ordinary girl. No ordinary people can walk through that portal. You will hear about her, John." And the face of the character being zoomed in for nothing else, but so that we could remember it and recognize her later. It was clear that she had an important upcoming role. I'm sure there were many others, that I forgot of, please write them in the comments. We also had the whole Jahr Null thing. But, of course, our main complaint is the death of the two key characters: Joe Blake and Frank Frink. In any other circumstances, it would mean that we lost those two and we would be fairly demotivated to watch the rest of the show. BUT before they are killed, we are introduced the Portal and the story of Thomas aka the plots magical ability to revive its characters. That's why we were not really upset with it. It was clear, that, since there is the alternate universe(s), such important characters MUST reprise. It was clearly the message of the third season. The fact that the two, Joe and Frank, are not just important, but key characters is proven by that the chemistry between Joe and Juliana, Juliana and Frank, Frank and Joe, was the reason all the fateful decisions and, consequently, plot twists, took place. It was the basis of the whole story, the reason to the events, that constituted the series! And the main essence of the show was that, despite propaganda, regimes and brain-washing, love, of all kinds, can do miracles. Okay, I understand why the killed Tagomi -- to create a dissonance for Kiddo and make him question his values.
    And, alas, none of these characters were even mentioned in season 4. "What kind of writers create the solid of the plot, premisses for promising storylines and then destroy them by themselves?!" you ask. I think I have the answer.
    The directors MEANT to conclude the series properly. Season 4 was meant to unfold, not to wrap up. There are two possible reasons this didn't happen.
    Number one: replacement of the directors and/or writers. The new team may have had another view on the way the series should end and what paths should characters take.
    Number Two: unexpected financing cut/ series shutdown and the associated with them necessity to fold the show up within 10 episodes. This is the most likely one.
    ‌I think that, roughly, that's what they've been told:"Okay, we have bad news for you. Unlike what we all thought, the show can't be renewed for ... reasons, so you have to quickly wrap it up. But let's not make the ending too firm, because, yes, we don't have money right now, but, who knows, we were a successful show, with a loyal audience and a good plot, we may be given the chance to proceed in the future. We need to leave unanswered questions to keep the intrigue in case we will be renewed. So, long story short, give it an ending but with the opportunity for a spin-off".
    It's a common practice in the movie industry, to end each season so, that it could be that last and not the last at the same time, so I'm not completely insane))
    Even more, with that theory, everything becomes reasonable. With only one season to spare, they had to choose the minor (relatively, of course) storyline (the John and Thomas's) to conclude and to leave the major one
    (Juliana and Joe's (and Frank's)) unfolded, because they a) didn't have enough screen time for it to conclude it (that's for sure, even without my theory) and b) needed to leave some doors open.
    Bonus: this may sound insane, but I like to think of it as a validation for my theory))
    Now, in the season 4, Juliana has visions, and in one of them, she sees a hexograme, which meaning she discovers to be "not yet complete". Throughout the season, the hexograme doesn't appear until the last episode, in which, too, it doesn't seem to tally with the circumstances. What else can it be other than a hint to the deliberate loose ends, left by the creators themselves. Also, in the vision, Juliana sees blur silhouettes appearing on the horizon. What else can it refer to, other than the people coming out of the Portal in the end of the series? These scenes are so out-of-context, I have to believe they were left specifically for the vigilant viewers.
    So yeah, that's my theory and it for sure will keep me going. Share it and let's see what other fans will think about it (and who knows, maybe even what the creators will have to say about it).

  • @harrymurray9702
    @harrymurray9702 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Rufu Sewell sure has some contradictory, and confusing outlooks regarding his character. John Smith never believed he did the right thing, he was disgusted during the initial defeat scene, and was coerced by his wife, and thoughts of his new born son to take the easy path. He lived a life of delusion, until he became the very thing he swore to destroy. A villian, and his death was not only beautifully poetic, and righteous, but soothing at the same time. The road to hell is paved with good intentions, even more so with foolish and cowardly decisions, by the very actions and choices of John Smith. Death is the far better alternative than ''existing'' in the world of the Greater German Reich.
