Synopsis
A grieving therapist begins to tell his clients exactly what he thinks
Ignoring his training and ethics, he finds himself making a big difference in people’s lives, including his own. The cast of “Downsizing” shares their best character-defining moments from the first season and reveals who made the best impression on Harrison Ford. When Brett Goldstein, Jason Siegel, and Bill Lawrence were asked how they managed to get Harrison Ford on the show, Siegel said that Goldstein initially wanted a “Harrison Ford type” and that he was going to audition people who looked like Ford.

Siegel told Goldstein that they should first pitch it to Ford, thinking he would immediately reject it, but at least other people would hear that Harrison Ford was involved in the project, which would free up interest from other big-name actors. Goldstein eventually talked to Ford and sold him the role. Goldstein still does not understand what he did to convince him, but he was delighted all the same.
This program is great!!
The characters mature a lot even in the first and second series, the jokes are perfectly calculated and performed, and all the actors do an excellent job! This is one of the best ice ax episodes I’ve seen lately! Harrison Ford gives an incredible supporting role, and Jason Seagal does a great job as a flawed and damaged character who is trying to be a better man 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 very funny, and as a theater student, I can appreciate how well the script works. I can’t understand the negative reviews, because this is already one of my favorite series after only two episodes.
