Is Man in the High Castle worth a watch?

My wife and I started it years ago and made it to episode 7 or so of the first season. We enjoyed it but just never finished.
Can we just start back there or need to rewatch everything?

The 1st season is pretty good. Stop there

Maybe Spoilers a bit (Not terribly so):
I was super into the concept of what the world might look like if the Allies lost WWII but I was completely turned off by the multi-verse thing they brought into play for seemingly no reason at all.

If the alternative history is what pulled you in, then it is worth the watch. The sci-fi stuff always seemed to take a back to seat in my opinion. One of the reasons the show struggled is partially because that aspect was not really developed.

I’m a huge alternate history buff

Must be on a strict schedule.
I like it though. Personally, I start all series on episode 7 of season 1, then I come here to ask if I should keep watching. But I'm not as pressed for time.

Sorry I don’t want to rewatch 6 plus hours of stuff. We have kids so yes

Yes.
It is a steady decline from first season and final one is a little of a chore, but overall worth it.

Season 3 went fully off the rails and burnt everyone to a crisp.
Amazon got a lot of flack from "activists" because they made Nazi occupation not feel that bad at all.

The last season is GoT final season-level bad for certain characters’ development and unsatisfying answers for the mysterious aspects of the show. They also lost the best characters due to real-life issues like contract disputes and scheduling conflicts.

I would re-watch. The final season and the ending was a let down imo but all in all I thought it was worth watching. Rufus Sewell's performance was really the highlight of the show for me.

If that is the case by all means finish it, you will like it.

The first season was great. The show never realizes its potential, though, likely for political reasons.
Character arcs weren't developed, abrupt and offbeat plotlines were introduced, some of the most intriguing characters were eliminated...
I'd watch season one just for how well done it was, but don't expect to be satisfied with how it plays out afterwards.

It is a good series. If I had watched a show years prior and wanted to start it back up again, I'd probably start over. Especially one that has potentially confusing use of timelines and understanding those timelines and plot arcs are essential to understanding what is happening. Plus, it gives you 6 more hours of entertainment.
Live your best life tho

Starts great. Ends terribly. I was really into it and despite Season 3 being a mess, I still had hope because there was a lot of intrigue in the plot. Season 4 is some of the worst TV I’ve watched that was carried hard by the main characters.

The concept is better than the execution and story.
And the final season is dogshit, when you learn who the REAL heroes are its a laugh riot

It's based on the work of a major sci-fi writer. Not sure who you are referring to with "they".

I couldn't get through Season 2. The main characters are terrible actors. Scenes with Stephen Root only serve to hammer that home.
