The cast of ‘Shrinking’ share their characters’ biggest moments from Season 1 and reveal who did the best Harrison Ford impression
Scenario
A grieving therapist starts telling his clients exactly what he thinks, and by disregarding his education and ethics, he ends up making huge changes in people’s lives—including his own. When Brett Goldstein, Jason Segel, and Bill Lawrence were asked how they landed Harrison Ford for the show, Siegel said that Goldstein originally wanted a “Harrison Ford type” and auditioned for people like Ford.
Eventually, Goldstein talked to Ford and sold him on the part
Segel told Goldstein that they should pitch it to Ford first, thinking he’d immediately reject it, but at least other people would hear that Harrison Ford brought the project to them and piqued the interest of other big-name actors. Goldstein still doesn’t understand what he did to convince him, but he was excited nonetheless…
Featured on WatchMojo: Top 10 TV Shows of 2023 (So Far) (2023) This show rocks!!
The characters develop so much in the first and second episodes, the jokes are perfectly placed and executed, and all the actors do a great job! This is one of the best pilots I’ve seen in a long time!
This is one of the best shows I’ve seen in a while!
Harrison Ford is great in his supporting role, and Jason Segal is great as a flawed, damaged character trying to be a better man and father. This show made me laugh like I haven’t in a long time.
I hope the rest is just as good!!
As a psychology major, this show is hilarious, and as a theater major, I can appreciate the great writing. I don’t understand the negative reviews, because after just two episodes, this is one of my favorite shows.
