I can’t deal with this show any longer. It’s just torture porn at this point. Cutting out tongues, eyes, arms. Female genital mutilation. Fingernails ripping out from radiation. If I wanted to see that I’d watch Hostel or Saw. Are we watching in hopes that June makes it out? That Gilead falls soon? There is no part of watching the men and women of Gilead subject these women to horrors that is enjoyable to watch. There’s no light at the end of the tunnel, especially if they want the show to last more than another season. It’s grim and bleak and physically uncomfortable to watch. While that it fine for a movie, it doesn’t make me want to tune in next week to see what disgusting and shocking thing they can think of doing to these poor rape victims.

While I get the argument that for religious reasons they don’t use ivf or anything. If they are willing to keep a handmaid chained in the basement to “protect” the baby, why would they willingly send viable handmaids to the colonies? The could just chain them up and keep trying for more babies, right? It isn’t like anyone knows whether who actually go to the colonies or not since no one comes back. And why did they send Jeanine instead of making the handmaids stone her to prove that they had the power to make them after the torture?

This episode should have been titled The Great Australian Hug Off. I have never contenstants be so affectionate. It was adorable. I loved all three finalists, and it was a rare finale where any of them winning would have made me happy. I think the right person won based on her showstopper.

Yay Dave!!

I feel like holocaust jokes are always a desperate choice, so the Anne Frank bit fell flat. How many years into menopause did every one of those women at the baby shower look?

It’s funny to me that no matter who the host it, they all seem to have the same haircut.

I can’t help but root for Dave.

The guy making it to the final round was total BS. His work was so unprofessional. On the plus side, Laverne toned down her robot/RuPaul impression and was almost bearable.

So you think Johnny’s profession is former gang member and Andrew works as a chaplain’s son. On the A&E website, Angele’s bio emphasizes her track background. Being an electrician is not mentioned once.
