The Handmaids Tale, a sitcom

SPOILERS S6

This whole season feels like a sitcom. The characters are always in the right place at the right time to hear important things needed to move the plot forward. It feels so rushed and unnatural, yet slow at the same time.

Examples:

  1. Commander Lawrence listening in through a literal hole in the wall
  2. June and Nick hiding in a closet and listening to Serena and Commander Wharton

And the dialogue feels cheesy this season. I can't put my finger on it, but I used to feel like I was watching a masterpiece. Now I wouldn't be suprised if Nick and June go to France and THT does a crossover episode with Emily in Paris. I cant lie, I'd kind of love that 😂

What are everyone's thoughts?
