The Handmaid's Tale
 
Does anyone else think The Handmaid's Tale is complete trash? Especially the second season. I don't want to give away spoilers (for those who haven't watched it yet) but really most of the episodes are just filler that really don't advance the plot at all. But that's only one reason why it sucks. Every second of the show is oppressive and dark, not necessarily a bad thing, but really there's nothing optimistic about it. The story itself is hugely unbelievable and ridiculous. It makes no sense how this "sect" or whatever it is can control so much territory. Also, even the stupidest person in the world knows you can't physically and mentally abuse a woman and expect her to get pregnant and then give birth to a healthy child. Lastly, I hate how it seems to cater to women's and homosexual's fears, as if saying "Be careful, or this might happen to us."

I started watching this show because my GF insisted we give it a try. Now, by season two, even she realizes it is stupid and pointless.

It's a witches brew of emotions and sadism

I know the concept, I'm watching the show. The concept is ridiculous.

i saw the movie some time ago. I found it a fairly unique and interesting concept, but i also remember the movie was a bit boring and anti-climatic... so when i heard they made an entire show about it i already thought that when the movie is already slow, how the hell are they gonna chop that material up into dozens of episodes and still keep it interesting?

I thought that was impossible, so i never bothered to even start watching the show... and judging by this thread i made the right decision

Assholes like you shouldn't watch smart TV shows because it'll only piss you off.
