Correct. That's Howard Prime. "Our" world is Alpha, the "other" world is Prime.

They don't, but the terms are used in episode descriptions and in articles. I'm guessing those are the terms the showrunner uses.

Now that the labels are sorted out,... Is it possible that Howard alpha switched with prime and returned to the opposite side? Happy ending of sorts: Howard alpha gets to be with his others wife and daughter which was a better fit for him, and Howard prime gets ****ed by flu again.

Just binged s2 in 2 days. Some weaker plot stuff than S1, but still a very fun watch, hope it gets rescued.

II watched with the CC on because they list Prime or Alpha before the dialogue.

I think the show holds up very well as just a 2 season work of art. I'm not entirely convinced I want them to keep it going. The open ending is delicious.

Bump. Given current events, do you see us going into a similar direction as the parallel world in Counterpart post-pandemic?

Great show. Worth a Covid rewatch.

Justin Marks had an AMA where he talked about season 3 storylines and how the show would end if he got a chance.

Re: who crosses over in the finale

There's speculation that the two Howards made a final switch that Justin Marks all but confirms. The Howard we see in our world is holding takeout, but we all know Howard Alpha cooks. His posture seems Prime too.
