A grieving therapist starts to tell his clients exactly what he thinks
Ignoring his training and ethics, he finds himself making huge changes to people's lives – including his own.. The cast of "Shrinking" share the top moments that defined their characters in Season 1 and reveal who has the best Harrison Ford impression..
In the end, Goldstein talked to Ford and sold him on the role
When Brett Goldstein, Jason Segel, and Bill Lawrence were asked how they got Harrison Ford to be in the show, Segel said that Goldstein originally wanted a "Harrison Ford type," and was going to audition people similar to Ford. Segel told Goldstein they had to at least bring it to Ford first, thinking he would turn it down immediately, but at least other people would hear that Harrison Ford was brought the project, generating interest from other notable actors.

Goldstein still doesn't understand what he did to convince him, but was elated nonetheless.. I've watched the first two episodes and I find them compelling.
That being said, I enjoy the depth of the characters that don't seem like caricatures; they are people who I am interested in getting to know
Part of the reason is that I found there was something reality based off a therapist who needs therapy and wants to break through to his patients to unexpectedly break through his own issues.I also respect the way it is presented – he is not doing something that other therapists should do, and that is quite clear.It hasn't gotten into the silly situations of other shows like Loot, but it's still early in the series and I'll continue watching it.The show isn't for everyone.
