Eventually, Goldstein talked to Ford and sold him the role
Chronology
A grieving therapist begins telling her clients exactly what she thinks. Ignoring her training and ethics, she finds herself making huge changes in people’s lives, including her own, and Bill Lawrence was asked how they got Harrison Ford to be on the show, Segel said that Goldstein originally wanted a “Harrison Ford Type,” and I would audition people who were like Ford. Segel told Goldstein that they should at least bring it to Ford first, thinking he would reject it immediately, but at least other people would know that Harrison Ford had brought the project, which would spark interest from other big-name actors.
The acting was fantastic
Goldstein still doesn’t understand what he did to get him, but he was elated nonetheless. This was a solid production and a truly unique storyline. I love how each character embraces their imperfections and shows vulnerability and uses humor to foster spiritual growth.
Is it perfect?
Shrinking has a lot of heartfelt moments, awkward moments, mildly funny cute moments, and laugh out loud moments. I hope they continue to make more seasons because the character development demands it. Drink.
But neither are any of us
I think the overuse of profanity takes away from the overall power potential here. It’s almost like the writers forcefully make the show edgy. I personally don’t think it needed that.
It’s definitely worth a watch
That’s why I gave it an 8.
