Well if you don’t want to get typecast as Queen Elizabeth - this is a hell of a way to do it.  

This show also presumes that there was a large group of people already clammoring for this type of theocratic govenment, so if  Eden was from a true believer family, they could have raised her under the dictums of Gilead even before Gilead existed.

I’ll have to watch it again, but I’m wondering if we’re all right.  They were listing the names of the dead from the bombing, but since Odette was just identified by Moira, maybe they read her name off too because of that?  Like, here’s who we know are now dead, including recent and recently identified.

I said he deserved an emmy for that moment alone, not that he didn’t have other emmy worthy moments.

Odette was not one of the people killed in the bombing, you’re confusing her with somebody else. Odette was killed early in the war, it was mentioned last year that she probably died in the “dyke purge.” I just assumed once you got to Canada you could access the cloud and get your stuff - maybe google knows something…

I think we’re just supposed to accept that the Sons of Jacob had infiltrated state and local governments as well as the armed forces.  So when the “terrorists” struck the leadership of the military was at least a good chunk made up of Sons.  Kind of like Hydra.  

Harris deserves and Emmy for one, small moment in this episode alone.  When his daughter was telling him about her “riding” in the Raj, he had that embarrassed, looking down at his feet face - the same face young William made during his first trip to Westworld when propositioned by the whore-bots or dealing with his…

They’ve been leaving little nuggets that this takeover isn’t as firm as it looks based on the areas, like Boston apparently and also ironically, that are clearly under Gilead control.  Of course there’s the troops massing on the boarder mentioned by Luke, then when June first got back to the Waterford’s house Aunt…

Mayday must have helped her from the beginning, where else could she have gotten the explosives?  

I’m pretty sure they’re dead.   They were just the Commanders from that area I’m guessing, Waterford had talked about going to Washington before.  Bradley Whitford is showing up at some point, and being the guy who takes over after this disaster makes the most sense.  The interesting thing is going to be what happens…

Serena is younger than most of the other wives they’ve shown her interacting with. That’s probably why she is so especially hateful toward Offred. In fact the actress who plays Serena is the same age as Elisabeth Moss, almost to the day. Not only doesn’t she really have any friends, the natural people for her to be…

I’m just the right age where that show was on and of course, nothing else was at the same time, so I remember watching it.  What always bothered me is Bam-Bam has super strength on The Flintstones, and then on Pebbles and Bam-Bam he was just a regular teenager.  Of course I was under 10 years old at the time - but you…

He probably assumed he was dead. The guy dressed, talked and acted like an old man twenty five years ago -you’d never think he was only in his 40's then.

If you went to the Middle East in the mid-50's you could say a similar thing - yes there’s some extremist religious groups out there, but our country (Syria, Iran, Saudi Arabia) is so much richer and freer than South Africa, India, China so why should we worry? All these stupid rules you hear about being lifted in…

And of course the voice of Friday in the various Avengers movies since Vision showed up - which will probably be her most well known and lucrative acting job because Hollywood is weird.

The only way she’s dead for good is if she can’t make any more Guardian’s movies due to her contract with Cameron to make an untold number of Avatar sequels that will never come out.

The part where they kept destroying the cop cars, so they kept getting downgraded until they were driving a Yugo was pretty good.  Along with Christopher Plummer’s absolutely amazing overacting, playing the Reverend as somehow both a male sexual predator and somehow still ambiguously gay...... I’ve thought way too…

Not that the Friends episode didn’t bring that home even more starkly - this is not a place like 2018 America, this was 2018 America.

She’s Chuck’s doctor on Better Call Saul and a million other things. She’s a really good character actress and Natasha Lyonne’s best friend, so there’s that.

The space deputy has to keep the thermal diode for his blaster in his shirt pocket so he doesn’t accidentally disintegrate the townsfolk - it’s a hoot!
