4. "The Man in the High Castle"

Although they are oppressed, people get a glimpse of a different world and strive to achieve freedom.
5. "Forever"
In "Forever," married couple Oscar and June are as predictable as ever— comfortable in their relationship but bordering on the edge of simply going through the motions. They have had the same routines, conversations, and vacations year after year. However, June decides it's time to spice things up, and the couple decides to embark on their first ever ski trip. This comedy series follows Oscar and June as they navigate this vacation and their love.
