The Handmaid’s Tale (S03E12) “Sacrifice”
So, here we are, at the penultimate episode of season 3. You all know how much I love the word penultimate, so I’m always happy for any opportunity to use it. Penultimate, penultimate, penultimate.… More “The Handmaid’s Tale (S03E12) “Sacrifice””
The Handmaid’s Tale (S03E11) “Liars”
After several weeks of not much happening, this week’s episode had a whole lot. June is looking at the yes-muffins while she voices over that they can get out 52 kids. How they’ll do that with a truck that can only hold ten, she’s not sure, but she’ll do if if they have to strap kids to the roof.… More “The Handmaid’s Tale (S03E11) “Liars””
The Handmaid’s Tale (S03E10) “Witness”
June has come home (for want of a better word). The house has been redecorated in her absence, and all the art and books are gone. New regulations, Aunt Lydia tells her, then encourages her to rest, because June’s home just in time for the Ceremony!… More “The Handmaid’s Tale (S03E10) “Witness””
The Handmaid’s Tale (S03E09) “Heroic”
Praise be, this Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Storyline seems to be over. (Did you see what I did there?)
Belinda Carlisle’s song Heaven is a Place on Earth is heard, as the episode opens.… More “The Handmaid’s Tale (S03E09) “Heroic””
The Handmaid’s Tale (S03E08) ‘Unfit’
I’m not sure where this show is going. June has become the least sympathetic character on the show, and I don’t even find her interesting anymore. She’s essentially untouchable, (she says so herself,) which takes away any sense of urgency.… More “The Handmaid’s Tale (S03E08) ‘Unfit’”
The Handmaid’s Tale (S03E07): “Under His Eye”
The episode beings with a Salvaging, one of those highly choreographed events with Handmaids pulling the ropes that hang miscreants. Another happy day in Gilead!
June is walking to the shops with the insufferable Ofmatthew.… More “The Handmaid’s Tale (S03E07): “Under His Eye””
The Handmaid’s Tale (S03E06) “Household’
We open with a kind of dreamy, soft focus, slow motion shot of falling snow. Murmuring voices pray for Nichole’s safe return. June voiceovers that she hopes Serena will remember why they sent Nichole to Canada.… More “The Handmaid’s Tale (S03E06) “Household’”
The Handmaid’s Tale (S03E05) “Unknown Caller”
The episode opens on the face of a grumpy old man. Nope, scratch that, it’s Nichole, on the screen, because Luke is too stupid to realize that putting the kidnapped Gilead baby on television was possibly not a great idea.… More “The Handmaid’s Tale (S03E05) “Unknown Caller””
The Handmaid’s Tale (S03E04) “God Bless the Child”
So, we open to see a whole lot of Handmaids walking through the streets. They’re walking in pairs, each one with her walking partner, in some weird parody of a ‘Madeline’ book.… More “The Handmaid’s Tale (S03E04) “God Bless the Child””
The Handmaid’s Tale (S03E03) “Useful”
A group of marthas are hanging, though not on the wall. Heresy is the official verdict, punishable, as well see, by death. June is looking up at them, and is join by two other Handmaids.… More “The Handmaid’s Tale (S03E03) “Useful””
The Handmaid’s Tale (S03E02) “Mary and Martha”
June is waiting for her new walking partner, who goes by the name Ofmatthew. Ofmatthew is one of the pious, Kool Aid-drinking Handmaids. (Or so it seems, though way back in season we we thought the same of Emily, so who can tell?)… More “The Handmaid’s Tale (S03E02) “Mary and Martha””
The Handmaid’s Tale (S02E06) “First Blood”
I think I’m becoming paranoid. My first thought when the episode opened was ‘there’s something off about the doctor.’ (Hi Kristian Bruun! I miss ‘Orphan Black!’).… More “The Handmaid’s Tale (S02E06) “First Blood””
Dark Matter (S03E01/02) “Being Better Is So Much Harder”/”It Doesn’t Have To Be Like This” Season Premiere
In the season premiere of Dark Matter, it felt like a fast train of a premiere.
In the Part One, “Being Better Is So Much Harder”, the episode picks off from right where the season finale left, everyone is scrammed and safe while Four has the disk drive.… More “Dark Matter (S03E01/02) “Being Better Is So Much Harder”/”It Doesn’t Have To Be Like This” Season Premiere”
