    Storyline

    Edit
    A religion-based autocracy has taken over most of the United States, renaming the country Gilead. In this country women are second-class citizens. Anyone trying to escape is punished. One such person is June, who is captured while trying to escape with her husband and child and is sentenced to be a handmaid, bearing children for childless government officials. As a handmaid, June is renamed Offred. This is her story. —grantss

    Good god, just end it already!
    It was good, now the quality is being ruined by dragging it on and on. The story and "almost endings" have gotten so repetitive it is painful. Wrap this up. The first season was great. The second season was good but started to feel like, as we refer to it, the Finding Nemo effect ... you keep thinking things are over or going to start going well, and then BANG ... some stupid way to drag it out. It has definitely started to seem like it's just for the money, not the story. So PLEASE put the story out of our misery and end it. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, NO SEASON 5! Thanks.
