Hulu, can you start restocking your British programming? Like you were my go-to for British stuff for awhile, but you've lost a crap ton of it (I know this because I keep going back to find shows that I know that I watched on you, only to find out that you don't have them anymore) recently.

I struggle with Serena Joy because I find her cruelty to Offred in this episode to be appalling. And yet (as far as we know), she's just as much a victim of circumstance as Rita, Offred, Janine. I can't even begin to imagine how I'd feel if I were a woman unable to have children, but had to engage with my husband as…

One of her best, smartest points.

I think part of it comes just from self-preservation. I've read a handful of memoirs from people who survived the Khmer Rouge (an even more horrifying situation than this) and it's amazing that anyone who survived the regime came out with even a shred of mental health.

I think a big part of the Massachusetts setting is because of the puritanical past. It's problematic…

As someone who's had that kind of breakdown a couple of times, it got to me as well.

It's also a teeny rebellion on the part of the women because you just know that if the Aunts found out, someone would get into trouble. I loved it.

What a waste of some truly fine actors, especially Mads Mikkelsen (seriously Disney…why tease me with images of Mikkelsen and then barely using him)!

But that's Kelly. She loves to sing. Honestly she's been a lot more tamped down on that front in this than on Up Yours Downstairs.

It's a lot of fun, more than you might expect actually.

Also some potential anti-science bias as well.

It's a nice little reminder that one of the things keeping women down is women.

As the podcast I listen to pointed out, that would actually probably lead to better results.

First, the shots of the fair (although as Hannah looks roughly the same age as she does in the first episode, it seems like things collapse completely at a rapid clip) and Offred leaving to go to the doctor were just beautiful, awe-inducingly beautiful.

I'm just curious where it will go, especially if they do the book in just this season.

Happy to help, even just a teeny bit.

I'm in a similar position of loving kids and wanting them a great deal but being definitively unable to. Like you, it makes me so fucking angry that people who treat their kids like garbage are able to have them without a problem.

I don't mind people who have a different opinion than me, but this outright ridicule of people engaging with a work is just not cool.

Atwood has pointed out multiple times that what happens in be novel has happened or is happening right now. Maybe not all at once, but it has.

Yeah I can see that and I agree that Snape probably is the most complex character on the whole thing. Like I said said above, I like Snape as a character, but not Snape the character.
