'Counterpart' finale: STARZ's show will be missed for its unique storyline, strong female leads and the remarkable J K Simmons

There are some shows that deal with alternate universes, but rarely do they delve into the philosophical depths of the concept as deep as 'Counterpart'
PUBLISHED FEB 14, 2019

STARZ's 'Counterpart' is officially coming to an end. The final episode of Season 2, set to air February 17, will serve as the finale of the series. Although STARZ pulled down the Justin Marks-created show, saying it wouldn't be carrying the third season, production house MRC, is already trying to sell the show to other channels. Hopefully, some channel will pick it up since 'Counterpart' deserves to remain on screen for at least two more seasons. 

Starring J.K. Simmons as Howard Silk, Olivia Williams as Emily Silk, Harry Lloyd as Peter Quayle, Sara Serraiocco as Baldwin, Nazanin Boniadi as Clare, Christiane Paul as Mira and Betty Gabriel as Naya Temple the show revolves around the notion of alternate realities.
