Watching the most recent Handmaid’s Tale with my wife. I can suspend my belief a lot with most shows but seeing all these hella handsome men fawning over an overweight Elizabeth Moss is just immersion breaking.

anyone else?

i did recently read the first 90 pages of the book before stopping. I stopped because the heroine slept with a married man, broke up their marriage, then married the dude in the book (Luke). And yeah, I just have no tolerance for rooting for someone like that. Not that she deserves to be Handmaided but I’m not advocating for a homewrecker.

TLDR: Elizabeth Miss is a bridge troll.

Shows really bad. I think she's one of those look I'm successful and a troll and I'm proud of it. The show is asinine, they write themselves into obvious situations. The shock value is over.
