They are all victims, to a point, except perhaps someone like Aunt Lydia, who is leading the charge for this regime and is absolutely brutal in every way to the Handmaids. She's one of those truly sociopathic people who derives pleasure from the suffering of others.

I agree, though I think it makes sense to just focus on one kind of oppression, and not include the other. Part of not including the racial aspect is to provide a more diverse cast, from the Hollywood perspective. I'm glad of it, considering the quality of acting that we are seeing across the board.

Spicer seems a few cents short of a dollar, so there's good hope of him jumping off the deep end.

And she exists in a society where younger women are constantly being rotated in, she hasn't given up her job to someone less than half her age.

Still miss that beautiful voice doing Phillies' games. *sigh*

I feel like Spicer is going to be one of those people who is a good soldier during times like this, and will completely freak out after and write a tell-all book that tries to smooth everything over and place the blame solely on Obama.

That's two shits too many.

As long as she doesn't go back and release a special edition of the books where she saves half the characters, kills a different set, and replaces wands with regular sticks, it's fine.

There was strength in numbers, but also tall guys in black with assault rifles in the room. There's a limit to anger when you are being threatened that way, along with the shock of being fired en masse.

The shot of Ofglen seeing her lover being hanged actually turned my stomach. That never happens to me when I watch horror movies, even scenes of war and atrocities on the news. The raw emotion of that scene without any words made it completely horrifying.

It sounds like the men in charge at Fox News had the same standards for their female colleagues as Hooter's does.

Seems like conservatives would have more real problems to worry about than complaining about liberals all the time.

I guess everything is all white, I mean right, again. For the audience.

Let the slimy dominoes keep falling.

"Must be more like Game of Thrones, you know with sex and tits and gruesome deaths and uncomfortable sexual assaults and shit. Because people want that stuff."

John Simm is confirmed to be back too.

While we were watching the episode, I said this same thing to my wife, naming the 10th Doctor in particular. His speech at the beginning of "Gridlock" is prime example.

That's what I thought, but they kind of ran together. I'm still expecting it to be John Simm's Master.

I've seen very few games from typical Scrabble players where both are close to 400 points. Many, this show isn't making any attempt to be realistic.

I was waiting for whatever is in the vault to knock four times.
