The phone call at the end between Kevin/Allison was also very telling for me. At first, we do see his side of the conversation. But at the end we only hear her side. If you imagine that it’s not “sitcom” Kevin talking to her on the phone at that point but an abusive husband screaming at her and she’s just trying to…

And you’re so right about the way it’s making us question Allison’s behavior/reasons. Even I who have been in her shoes was questioning it up until episode 4. We’re so conditioned as a society to blame the victim or only see physical abuse as worthy of concern and intervention when verbal and emotional abuse is truly…

Someone else who also commented to you explain it really well: the Sitcom-verse is Allison deliberately blunting the toxicity of her relationship with Kevin.

I want him dead. I think for a lot of us watching, Kevin represents the covert propaganda on North American television that has allowed misogyny and homophobia to sneak into homes and convince people that it was charming. This is bigger than Kevin, he’s tormented us all for too long.

It clarified it for me too. It isn't even so much that she can't "just leave." She wants to kill him because she wants him dead. She wants revenge for ruining so many things for her.

I’m really enjoying the hell out of this show. For one thing, it hits really close to home for me for a lot of reasons. (Not least of which being both the number of Allisons I’ve known in my life, and the overwhelming pressure I was under while growing up to become one myself.)

It wasn’t even charity. Walt was a big reason the guy got rich.

Walt’s ego wouldn’t let him do it. It’s kind of the point of the series. 

You have misconceptions about Wandavision.

The multi-camera living room fades into a single-camera, dimly lit kitchen.

Who cares about the Cars sequels? You obviously don’t know any children. They are obsessed with Cars. It’s HUGE. I have preschoolers so I know, but it’s Cars birthday parties left and right. And the 3rd one was great. 

I know I’m repeating myself but I think the message has been lost. It’s like if a series based on 1984 adapted the book in season 1 and by season 4 Winston Smith and Julia and special guest star Liev Schrieber as Goldberg are leading the prole revolution to take London back from Big Brother, all set to a Rage Against…

No show has ever needed an end date more than this one.

Soul was very beautiful, I think it’s better than Up as a whole.

the tonal shifts in the episode

Terrible season.  Terrible finale.  The first couple of episodes were fair, but it went downhill in a hurry.

I remain surprised that this still has an audience of people who can cope with its unremitting grimness. Back at the start of the second season, we were recording it on a Sunday night, and were also recording three episodes of 80s British WW2 sitcom ‘Allo ‘Allo (quite the totalitarian double bill). Come Monday evening…

I wasn’t completely satisfied either, because the tonal shifts in the episode gave me whiplash. Plus, as someone else mentioned, not washing your hands and face before picking up a baby after basically tearing someone limb from limb, while a nice allusion to The Bacchae, seemed a bit farfetched.

I might be the only one who is not completely satisfied by that finale. Fred’s death is okay with me, and I know the handmaids doing it is kind of cathartic and maybe is my moral compass talking, but I just hated that for June (and Emily for that matter). IF she had ANY redeemable qualities left, they went completely…
