Absolutely! And I don’t think anyone here has expressed that they expected all happy endings. But and.ENDING would have been nice.

I don’t speak for just myself but my entire friend group: we have no interest whatsoever in the testaments.



After reading first the handmaid‘s Tale, and then watching the seasons as they went by, I was gob smacked at how many episodes or just absolute yawns! In season six as especially. Much of season six could have been left on the cutting room floor and they could’ve taken their time to tie some of these pieces of the story together if this is their so-called finale. The finale, certainly fell way way way below the anticipation and the expectation of every single person I have spoken to who has watched the series completely. It turned into a series about June and June, PERIOD. Once Elizabeth Moss took over in the role of executive producer and then director the show became all about her and so very little about all of the others.

I speak from not only myself, but I speak for many of my friends, who watched this entire series, hoping that some of these lingering threads would be tied together at some point. What a disappointment!!!!!

There were many more characters in this entire series other than Esther that were overlooked when it came time to film the final season. We are just left to imagine what happened to them. A very poor poor poor way to finish an epic story.

In conclusion, this is not the handmaid‘s tale. This is Elizabeth Moss‘s tale. And somehow someway she got the rest of the group of investors, producers, and etc., to go along with it. Do you not think for a moment that seeing Elizabeth Moss’s face again and again and again and again and again and again in almost every scene gets repetitive and again, and, boring?!??????

The name of the series should’ve more accurately been called, “ June. A handmaid tale.”

A group of my friends got together and had a watch party for season six. We saw the first three episodes that night and planned our next watch party for episode four. However, after episode four and episode five were so boring. We all decided it wasn’t even worth putting on lipstick let alone getting together for a night of good television. Pfffft, SMH

All of this seems to be conjecture and we will only know what transpires throughout season six when it airs.

While the first five seasons were filled with action and cliffhangers, season six seems to be lacking in this area. In fact, episode four and five have been quite boring.

I will watch until the end to see how they tie all of these loose threads together to a finale.

Your comment is perplexing. You blame Ethan and follow up with “they were too young to marry” - which I agree. But they BOTH decided to marry at 20 and without even really knowing themselves tried to make a marriage work. Marriage IS work and it takes BOTH to be willing to do that work.

I completely disagree with MOST of this. Ethan’s desire was to marry Olivia as she presented herself while dating. She reminds me of a caged animal who would do any and every thing that was her upbringing - which was NOT all good but she threw the baby out with the bathwater. She didn’t change little things, she changed dramatically and quickly. Ethan did not a lot of her changes and desirous of even more “on the fringe” changes.

Two make a marriage work and two destroy a marriage.

Kim, with MANY insidious issues of her own, was a HUGE problem. She could give out advice on every topic but has proved she cannot live by her own counsel. She is certainly NOT someone to be counseling anyone. Her faith must be vertical FIRST. God change in me all that displeases You.
