The Exemplary Television Awards

Today is a very special #FanCastleSunday! 

Hello, and welcome to the one and only Exemplary Television Awards! Today we celebrate the greatest television show of all time. It has earned its mark in television history for its poignant themes, stunning visuals, exceptional acting, and soundtrack. The individuals involved with the creation of the show have earned this medal a thousand times over.

Let’s give it up for Amazon’s The Man in the High Castle! 

Fan Castle Sunday: The Beginning of the End

The Beginning of the End

It’s been an amazing journey

The finale to Amazon’s The Man in the High Castle is just 5 days away. Yes, I am emotional, and yes, there may have been a tear or two while typing this post up. As everyone knows, this show has been a huge part of my life since the beginning. I just want to say that it has been an amazing journey of friendship, art, and blossoming into a better me.

I remember the cold, snowy day in February when they announced that Season 4 will be the finale. Part of me was shocked and saddened, but the other part was thankful that TMITHC wouldn’t go the prolonged, dragged out route that so many shows in the past have gone. To be honest, I am glad they aren’t going to grind the show into the ground like that–It’s a bittersweet feeling. 

I just want to say thank you to everyone I’ve met on this journey. I’ll cherish the memories TMITHC has given me forever.

With Season 4 airing on the 15th, there will be no #FanCastleSunday next week or the week after to give everyone a chance to catch up (and avoid spoilers!).

#FanCastleSunday will resume Sunday, December 1st

What are your #HighCastle S4 predictions? When #FanCastleSunday resumes December 1st, we’ll see if anyone got close!

Fan Castle Sunday: Notes to the Cast and Crew!

Welcome to another #FanCastleSunday!

With Season 4 approaching faster than a train with rockets, I wanted to do something a little different. It’s time to let the cast & crew of The Man in the High Castle know how much we appreciate them! I created a form to allow everyone to leave a note, anonymously or with their Twitter handle.

I must confess that I got a bit teary eyed when I went through the responses last night. This truly is an amazing fandom, and I am happy to be a part of it.

Fan Castle Sunday: Interview with Elise!

Welcome to another #FanCastleSunday!

….She is famous for her amazing gifs, and I’ve enjoyed seeing her posts throughout the years, so please give a warm welcome to the one and only ☆ Elise!

I am right there with her on how this wonderful fandom has allowed her to blossom. Because of the friendliness of  High Castle fans (and cast & crew!), I’ve been able to break out of my incredibly shy self. I will be forever grateful for that. ❤

Tell the world a little bit about yourself!

my name is elise. 25 years. i live in france. i hold a tumblr: @joexjuliana.

What drew you to Amazon’s the Man in the High Castle?

i watched the pilot in july 2015 and i was immediately seduced by the idea of “what if?” i quickly became attached to the character of Joe and Juliana (and the others of course, but it’s two there first).

At what point were you hooked? 

this is the first series that gives me this effect. i have never been so addictive to anything else. I love EVERYTHING. the characters, the atmosphere, the story. ALL. that’s why i decided to create a blog on tumblr. i needed to share and exchange about this show. 

Speaking of special, the TMITHC fandom is the best fandom I have ever been blessed to be a part of. The absolute kindness and friendliness I experience on Twitter keeps me coming back and is why I keep drawing and creating the things that I do! What is your favorite thing about being a part of this fandom?

it’s so true. it’s the best fandom in the world. no ridiculous war of ship. everyone respects everyone. it’s very rare. and thanks to this fandom, i was able to blossom and open myself.

What is the inspiration for the amazing gifs you make?

very good question. and to be honest, i don’t know. I just love to make gifs and exchange with the fandom. it’s the first time in my life that i feel like I belong to something. that i am useful. so i think my motivation has to come from there. EXCHANGE WITH OTHERS. and give something to others.

The creative minds behind TMITHC are talented artists who never cease to amaze me with the sets/scenery, soundtracks, and costumes. What is your favorite set?

I really like the tagomi office. very well decorated. the new smiths apartment in the s3 and the old house of jules and frank.

How did you feel when they announced that Season 4 will be the final season?

i knew this fatal day would come. i was extremely sad. i mean, the man in the high castle has been in my life for 4 years. thanks to this show i was able to meet incredible people/actors. it’s going to be horrible to say goodbye for good…

Name one thing you’d like to see happen in S4.

i would love to see joe and frank again. with parallel universes, i know it’s possible. see them help juliana in her quest. please, give me one last time a HAPPY joe. he suffered too much.
