A grieving therapist starts telling his clients exactly what he thinks
Ignoring his training and ethics, he finds himself making big changes in people’s lives – including his own. Share the top moments that defined their characters in Season 1 and reveal who has the best Harrison Ford impression.
Eventually, Goldstein talked Ford into the role and sold him on it
When Brett Goldstein, Jason Segel and Bill Lawrence were asked how they got Harrison Ford on the show, Segel said Goldstein initially wanted a “Harrison Ford type,” and was going to audition people who looked like Ford. Segel told Goldstein that he wanted to bring it to Ford, but he thought he would immediately reject it, but at least he would get other famous actors interested so that others would hear that Harrison Ford brought the project to him.

Goldstein still doesn’t understand what he did to convince him, but he was thrilled nonetheless.. Shrink is a rare gem—a show that’s as funny as it is deeply moving.
What makes Shrink is so special is how it balances sharp humor with gut-wrenching moments
It’s a smart, heartfelt exploration of grief, growth, and the messy ways people try to fix themselves and each other. Jason Segel is fantastic as a therapist reeling from a personal loss, and Harrison Ford brings unexpected warmth and depth to his role as a gruff, no-nonsense counselor.
It’s absolutely brilliant
It’s honest, emotional, and incredibly human—a show that understands how complex and beautiful life can be.
