TopicThe newest season of The Handmaid's Tale has been kinda crap (some spoilers)

I mean the last season ended with her character basically boiling over with rage and determination to get her daughter back and upend Gileads insane system of rule which was awesome

Eight episodes in though and it seems like that has been totally squandered. I know her character could face consequences for going against the rules but it just seems like episode after episode has her faced with some terrible choice and she continues to choose seething but quiet compliance.

Its made worse by the fact that there keep being moments where it really seems like she is going to make some symbolic stand. She was live on air with the waterfords and she just stood there stewing. She could have broken the vase behind her or quickly shouted some plea for help. Then there was the execution by hanging that the handmaids were tasked to do that harkened back to the stonings of the first season. That really seemed like a time that she could have done something and she even had made a symbolic stand against that kind of thing before.
