Narrative
A patient therapist begins to tell his clients what he thinks
Ignoring his training and ethics, he finds himself making a huge difference in people’s lives, including his own. The cast of “Downsizing” shares the key moments that defined their characters in the first season and reveals who is the best Harrison Ford impersonator. When Brett Goldstein, Jason Siegel, and Bill Lawrence were asked how they got Harrison Ford on the show, Siegel said that Goldstein initially wanted a “Harrison Ford type” and was going to audition people who looked like Ford.

Siegel told Goldstein that they should have at least presented it to Ford first, thinking that he would immediately refuse, but at least other people would hear that Harrison Ford got the project, which would cause interest from other famous actors. Eventually, Goldstein talked to Ford and convinced him to take on the role. Goldstein still doesn’t understand what he did to convince him, but he was thrilled anyway..
This show hits you in the face!!
The characters develop a lot even in the first and second episodes, the jokes are perfectly calculated and executed, and all the actors do an excellent job! This is one of the best Piolet episodes I’ve seen in a long time! Harrison Ford is amazing in his supporting role, and Jason Segal is great as a flawed, damaged character trying to be a better husband and father.
This is one of the best shows I’ve seen lately!
This show made me laugh like I haven’t laughed in a long time. As a psychology student, this show is hilarious, and as a theater student, I can appreciate how well the script flows. I can’t understand the negative reviews as this is already one of my favorite shows after only two episodes.
