Praise be!!!
I am loving this series and as much as I do,I hope they dont jump the shark.Americans love to flog a show until theres no viewers left unlike the British who seem to know when to end one
I think they already have. The last episode was great, but that doesn't make up for the fact that the preceding ten episodes were dull and completely directionless for the majority of the time. It's as though they only paid for the script writers to work part-time on this season. There's only so much imagery and slow closeup pans across June's face that can be used to substitute a real storyline and character development.
i disagree. each series has appeared slow and a bit directionless but building up big at the end. this series is just following the same, what is quite successful, path. theres still plenty to occur before the end, which will either be june succedding or (more unlikely) hanging and i believe they will stick to the same formula to create a good story, admired for some time to come
See, I think they are over-relying on "following the same successful path" as you put it. Margaret Atwood did the heavy lifting in writing the book and establishing the tapestry of a dystopian society. The script writers have largely failed to capitalise and meaningfully expand on what has already been done for them. It's lazy to keep falling back onto the tried-and-true formula, whilst not actually offering anything in the way of a cohesive storyline. One good episode doesn't make up for the ten before it that were largely unnecessary, unrelated and directionless.
