So I haven't watched any of season 3 yet, GF is still trying to catch up so we can start S3 together. Anyway, cool story for ya'll...
We were in Vancouver this weekend and hanging out at this dive bar near downtown. Long story short, I ended sitting at the bar next to DJ Qualls (Ed). We ended up talking for a little bit. I asked if he was in town to film season 4. He told me he couldn't say. Cool dude. Seemed really grateful that we would say anything or compliment his role.

I would love to hear his take on being a fashion model is the roles he gets cast in
Finally finished. Fantastic season. Love this show so much.
Really interested in what happens with John Smith. I think he's such a fascinating character. I was wondering to myself earlier in the season if he is actually a villain... I think he definitely turns against the Reich by the end of it.
Man... poor Frank. First off, his name is Frank Frink. Then his hot girlfriend leaves him because of circumstances, and ends up banging the super good looking Aryan test tube prototype... Then he gets blown up and deformed. But we find out he's alive! Oh wait... he got his head cut off.
I'm guessing, that Frank and Joe Blake will be back in some fashion, knowing what we now know about how Traveling works. I also think John Smith will try to bring one of his alternate sons to his world
Can't wait for the next season.

I'm not sure about Joe. Juliana was pretty clear that every time she saw joe he was killing her then himself. Doesn't leave many joes to go traveling.
I think that all of what Sex Panther said could happen, but I think that Smith will for sure try to do that..
Edit: Mine, Charlie Brown, and Sex Panther are end of series spoilers.
As is this WAY out there theory:
After his reaction to the riots and the fact that he used to be an Allied officer, John Smith figures out a way to send somebody to "our" reality and kill the John Smith that is there so he can take his own place
i thought the season was phenomenal, I would like to see more backstory on how the Allies lost the war though.
I wanna see our defense pissed off, not confused, maybe a little murder in their hearts

they lost the war because the Germans got the bomb first and dropped it on DC.

And his motivation for doing so is he finds out his son, along with other undesirables, was one of the test subjects for the machine.

Finds out that is the case, sabotages the Greater Reich, then throws a "Peace Out" on his way to another reality.
The three of us should write for the series.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
I love the theories

Well now I'm thinking... his son made it through to one

But I like Stupe's better. Dude just straight up has another him killed and slides in. I honestly think this is a very likely scenario

Freaking great season!
The greatness of this show probably entirely hinges around the development of John Smith and whether he truly digs his heels in the with the Reich or his love for his family finally makes him break rank and he does so in a badass fashion. I keep expecting the latter at any moment but show is making it a really slow burn.
I find him to be the most interesting character at least.

Was anyone else surprised at the portrayal of Hoover as a Nazi? I know Hoover had lots of flaws but I don't recall fascist sympathizies to be one of them. It seems really slimey to portray a real-life person as one of the most despicable villains in our history even if it's science fiction.
I mean he was conniving, authoritarian to the core and borderline paranoid. Not a huge stretch to say he'd thrive under a regime that was very similar.
I think Hoover would have adapted to any government that would have given him power.

And that's exactly the reasoning I have a problem with. "This dead person who can't defend himself would totally be a Nazi" isn't a game I think is fair to play.
Sure - that's the biggest objection to historical fiction as a genre. How to make it realistic to a point while still being different enough from real life to be interesting.
Hoover doesn't have a whole lot to defend as it is now. To think that he wouldn't used his particular skillset to survive and thrive in any alternative timeline is somewhat shortsighted. He would have done great in the Reich.
PSA I'm only 4 episodes in.

Alright, but don't say I didn't warn you when Ron Reagan is the puppet governor of the Pacific State of California in Season 4.
HOW COME NO ONE IS PROTESTING GEORGE LINCOLN ROCKWELL BEING LABELED A NAZI?!?!
Just got caught up last night. Hot Lesbian Nazis sounds like a weird porno, but they made it work!
I think in previous alternate time that John Smith was medieval royalty who got defeated jousting against some young punk...
Ok...that just seems kind of far-fetched.Southlake said:

But Can you change your stars simplying by changing multiverses?
I was referring to Rufus Sewell also being in, A Knights Tale.
See what I did there?
[Sigh]

The question is do we send them to a reeducation camp for being sexual deviants, or execute them for being Nazis? That's a toughie, but I'll go with reeducation since they didn't appear to be responsible for the murders of any American loyalists.
Great season. One annoyance though, why did they spend so much time on scenes with the lesbian reporter? How did any of that crap make any difference to the show other than show that nazis hate gays? I kept waiting for her to do something important, but no, she got arrested and now will probably die. Seemed like filler.
Sorry.
Sorry.

Slimey? It's historical fiction!
What I find so compelling about the idea behind this show is that it is even difficult to pin down who or what is "good" or "bad". Some people are trying to survive the system. Some people are trying to thrive in the system. Some people are trying to fight the system.
And, if we're honest, we can picture how we could find ourselves in any one of those groups and how forces can pull or push us from one group to another.
I don't think it's a stretch to apply the same dynamic forces to historical figures.
Great season!
End of season: Abe's quote at the end on the "special, special girl" making it through obviously has some kind of relevance. Wouldn't be surprised if one of the theories on Smith's son were true. If Smith found out his son was a test subject that would probably break him. You can already see a hint of resentment in him already IMO.
