Trivia
For the set build of the Nazi laboratory in the Poconos, the production design team made the consoles fully operational and controllable. All the buttons and switches worked, and the images on the monitors were tailored to the proposed purpose of each bay.

Goofs
Dr. Mengele asks the officers to hand over their weapons before activating the Machine, because the electromagnetic field that would be created would pull all metallic objects towards it. However, none of the medals on John Smith or Himmler's uniforms are affected. It should also be noted that there is a total of about 4-5 grams of iron in a healthy human body as well (mostly in red blood cells and muscle cells), which should also have been affected by the electromagnetic field: essentially, it would all be sucked out of the body, killing everyone in the room. Magneto did something similar in X2: X-Men United (2003).

Quotes
Himmler: You don't think they're planning to target Die Nebenwelt?
Obergruppenführer John Smith: Tagomi made no direct threats, sir.
Himmler: The Japanese made no direct threats before Pearl Harbor...

Superb production design and writing made this one of the best shows of 2018

The story is depressing, disgusting, sad, epic and much more, the writing is superb. Jahr Null is upon us and we get to see the Nazis executing their plans, the creators behind the show truly did something amazing, something that have never been done before. John Smith is the most well written character, the character development we have seen is one of the finest I've ever seen on television. I truly believe he will turn sides again sometime in the future, I find him one of the most good people on the show. I really liked Wyatt Price, an interesting character that was mysterious but ended up being the most loyal to the cause.

The overall season have been the best one yet, I've enjoyed it from start to finish. Taking a liking to even the so called bad guys of the show, many thanks to the superb writing. The extra year to finish season 3 was needed and made for one of the best TV Shows in 2018, with top notch drama and production design. I can't wait to see what they bring to season 4, they have built it up to be amazing.
