S3 - from what l've seen of it - has taken that onboard. There's not the violent imagery that some past episodes have shown us. We *know* what goes on in Gilead, we knows the offensive ideas behind it. S3 is about bringing it down through the connections forged living thru that.

Interesting, you seem to be opposite to this. https://www.stuff.co.nz/entertainment/tv-radio/113251659/some-grim-news-about-the-handmaids-tales-new-season-its-getting-boring … But like I say, different viewpoints are what make us, so it's not snark, merely that in these days of much to watch, I'm not sure, based on S2, I can wager 13 hours of a slog when there's other stuff to view.

Not so much of a review as a poorly done synopsis; and I'm thinking by someone who may not have being paying much attention, or is just blind to the nuance of the story. But then again - Atwood has always been more popular with women. And the series has kept a lot of her style.

You know Darren, l find it odd that after l state an opinion on something i've seen, you tell me why l'm wrong though you haven't seen it. Then after we talk, you double down with someone else's opinion. Why? Surely your opinion is enough? Otherwise why comment in the 1st place?

I hoping I’m respectful of each angle here when I offer that my wife “hated” (like really hated) the end of S2 and we are having a family meeting about even going back to S3. We ploughed through and felt let down…

I get that Darren wanted to know there was a direction. I felt that. But K felt that the choices at the end of S2 weren’t … logically human and they have a big job to make that work…

Also, we were able blu offered three eps for review. That’s not a story. S2 went off the rails after that episode 3 so how can we recommend anyone commit to all of the rest of S3…

“Able blu” is supposed to be “also”

I trust Sarah to send me back there - and K will come too even though she is angrier than I am - but three eps is my limit…

Yeah, I'm putting a three strikes rule in full effect because I think THT really has to get to grips with really basic pacing and story-telling issues. Fast.

I just think having watched the taut telling of Chernobyl, and been burned by stories that drift endlessly more because of their vagueries, it's not a series i want to return to. Wife watched 2 eps of it last night, and says THT nowhere near as good as it has been
