The x-ray being wrong (it was of an abdomen not a pelvis, like you would expect for a potential broken hip) tipped me off that it was all in Grace's head. *ahem*

That framing made the house look small and Whittle look enormous… it really confused and delighted me at the same time.

Can I just say: that picture of Ricky Whittle looking sideways has a very unnerving optical illusion going on there, with his pupils and eyelashes creating an effect where he's both looking away from the camera… and looking straight at you.

My issue with the speech was that any DA worth their salt would have objected to it. He was directly addressing jury, offering his own testimony (in the form of what sounded a bit like a closing statement), rather than questioning the witness. To ask to treat Frank as "hostile" and then do nothing with it at all, was…

???

With enough flashbacks that's entirely doable.

As soon as the guard's death was mentioned in his presence I knew Picatella was done for.

I love Suzanne, and love the actress portraying her… and yet she is exactly as you say: a plot device the writers can use to shake things up and inject a bit of "crazy" into a story.

Although I thoroughly enjoyed this season, I was troubled throughout by the handling of the hostages. This is an inherently dark situation but the show never hits the right tone about it. Even though one of them is murdered and another is sexually abused (and others sexually harassed) it's never given the dramatic…

It's really weird how his being dead doesn't seem to be that much of a big deal. Even if the guards hadn't been released, surely any kind of deal would be instantly invalidated once Hump's death was discovered by the authorities?

Healy was a much *much* better character, with his misogyny (and humanity) portrayed in far richer detail.

To be honest I found Picatella's psychological torture of Red and the girls utterly unconvincing. At first I felt the genuine menace of the scene, but as soon as I twigged that there were no actual stakes, and that no character was seriously under threat, all tension drained from it. Now, that scene where Picatella…

I'm not buying this lack of sympathy for Bailey. Poussey absolutely did not deserve to die, but Bailey was under assault from Suzanne in a rage while trying to restrain her. He didn't "murder" her (although he could have dealt with the situation better). It's sufficiently ambiguous to cut Bailey some slack.

That was a good read, and made me realise the most gaping absence in the story: the sexist homophobic pigs running the show in Gilead would be natural racists too, and none of that has been shown or hinted at. While it's clearly in the book, they've decided to abstain from any racial commentary in the show, which is…

"The annoying back and forth in the last two episodes: "now we leave town; now we have to say goodbye; now we have to go back and retrieve the film; now we have to save Joe from a trap, now I have to go back with money to save that Joe guy again, now I have to kill that Joe guy; now I have to retrieve the film and set…

I found this show entertaining and watchable… but I do think at the same time it was a load of rubbish.

Remarks under most episode reviews that amount to little more than "the reviewer doesn't share the same opinion as me" barely classify as critique.

Here's the thing: you can critique something and still actually enjoy it. You'll find examples of this on… well, this entire website. That's kind of what it's about. Are you new here or something?

She was a fantastic guest on "What's the T?" as well. Definitely worth a listen.

At 12.17 when angela is taking the USB out of the closet there are… fingers, moving. What on earth is that about?
