Harrison Ford — TV Flash editorial portrait

Dr. Paul Rhoades

Harrison Ford

Harrison Ford’s Dr. Paul Rhoades made Shrinking a cranky mentor nobody knew they still needed — 2020s catalog grief comedy, Apple warmth without a copied mustache, then 1923 stretching the movie-star gravity onto Dutton range. TV Flash files him as the late-career scowl that can do a couch and a drought.

Harrison Ford plays Dr. Paul Rhoades on Shrinking, the 2020s catalog mentor in Jason Segel’s no-filter grief half-hour. Brutal truth as a treatment plan, a wound that stays open between jokes: Ford is the crank. He makes Apple’s post–Ted Lasso warmth feel like it has a famous jaw refusing the merch.

Dr. Paul Rhoades is the named job on Shrinking; Shrinking (Apple TV+, 2023–) is only the stamp. A clean first hour is s01e01: Coin Flip as the Apple contract: Jason Segel's therapist telling clients the brutal truth, grief with no filter, Harrison Ford already the cranky. Watch Ford for stance. The rest of the run will keep; the temperature is the file.

1923 later parked him with Helen Mirren on Sheridan’s between-the-wars range — Prohibition, land as a weapon, movie-star western instead of ranch-soap default. On TV Flash Ford is 2020s craft — Rhoades as the named weather, a Dutton epic as the encore, still the reason a therapist and a cattle war share a scowl.

Paramount+ later used Ford on 1923 as Jacob Dutton. Start that title at s01e01 — 1923 as the year-as-title door: Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren bridging Dutton myth, Prohibition and drought already weapons, movie-star gravity not. Ford does not visit this floor; he works it. s03e12 on Shrinking remains a useful hour: And That's Our Time as latest listed hour: session-ending title, post-Ted Lasso warmth without the copied mustache, still a hit that earns the hug. s02e01 on 1923 remains a useful hour: The Killing Season as season-two launch: the titled hunt, Ford and Mirren still the reason this bridge series is not leftover ranch inventory.
