One of the reasons why Shrinking is one of Apple TV+’s best shows is that it masterfully balances drama and comedy. In the series, they deal with incredibly deep topics in thoughtful ways while also cracking jokes left and right. Now, they’ve proven they can balance the emotional and hilarious behind the scenes too, thanks to Harrison Ford’s Season 3 wrap speech that was sentimental until he threw some light-hearted shade at Jason Segel.
In true Jimmy and Paul fashion, Jason Segel and Harrison Ford had a simultaneously sweet and hilarious moment together to celebrate the fact that Season 3 of Shrinking had wrapped. As you can see in the video below, the Indiana Jones actor gave a thoughtful and candid speech about how much he loved working on the show, which was quickly followed by him taking a jab at his co-star. Take a look:
weep like he did with his speech during the Season 2 finale. His thoughtful comments about ending Season 3 and wanting to make more Shrinking were so heartwarming, and it’s evident how much this show means to him. So, yeah, when he said the following words, I wanted to tear up:
first-time and well-deserved Emmy nominee. Like Paul on Shrinking, Harrison Ford can be intimidating and definitely has his sassy moments. However, based on his co-star’s comments about him, the texts he sent Jessica Williams and Michael Urie about their 2025 Emmy nominations and this video, he clearly cares so much and has a heart of gold.
However, his snarky side came out when Jason Segel responded to his little speech. The conversation went like this:
- Jason Segel: Yeah, buddy.
- Harrison Ford: I wasn’t talking to you.
And then, as you saw in the video, Ford yanked his jacket off his co-star’s finger and stormed off. It’s honestly comedy gold.
It also perfectly encapsulates why Jimmy and Paul are such a good duo on-screen. They love and care for each other so much; however, Paul also can’t help but shade and occasionally torment Jimmy (like he did in that canoe). But don’t worry, Jimmy knows how to throw it right back.
It would seem Ford and Segel are capable of doing that to each other in real life, too, and I genuinely love to see it.
Now, the wait is really on for Shrinking Season 3. And I’m feeling optimistic about getting it on the 2025 TV schedule because we now know they’re done filming, and the first two seasons premiered in 2023 and 2024. So, I can’t wait to see what they have in store, and clearly they feel the same way and want to make more. So, let’s keep this heartfelt and hilarious show on the road.
