The cast of “Shrinking” shares the defining moments that defined their characters in Season 1 and reveal who is the best Harrison Ford impersonator
Narrative
A grief counselor begins telling his clients exactly what he thinks, and by ignoring his training and ethics, he finds himself making huge changes in people’s lives — including his own. When asked how they got Harrison Ford to join the show, Brett Goldstein, Jason Segel, and Bill Lawrence said that Goldstein originally wanted someone who was a “Harrison Ford type” and was going to audition for people who looked like Ford. Segel told Goldstein that they had to at least pitch it to Ford first, thinking that he would reject it outright, but at least other people would hear that Harrison Ford had been featured in the project, which had piqued the interest of other big-name actors.

Eventually, Goldstein talked to Ford and convinced him to take the part. Goldstein still doesn’t understand what he did to convince him, but he was happy nonetheless. This was a solid production and a very unique storyline.
The acting was amazing
I love how each character embraces their imperfections, shows vulnerability, and uses humor to grow spiritually. Shrinking has a ton of heartfelt moments, awkward moments, mildly funny moments, sweet moments, and laugh-out-loud moments. I hope they continue to produce more seasons because the character development deserves it.
Is it perfect?
No. But neither are any of us. I think the excessive use of profanity takes away from the overall power potential here.
It’s definitely worth watching
It’s almost like the writers are trying to force the show to be bold. Personally, I don’t think it needed that. That’s why I gave it an 8.
