Handmaid's Tale: the sixth and final season focuses on the ongoing fight against Gilead. June returns to the former states to build a rebellion of handmaids to liberate the areas of Gilead that were depressed the most. The ladies plan to overtake and kill the commanders on the night of Serena's wedding. Serena's journey to become the leader and new image of New Bethlehem with the help of Commander Lawrence (Bradley Whitford). Josh Charles comes into the picture as High Commander Wharton and Nick's new father-in-law. Upon their marriage, Serena learns Wharton is no different from her former husband Waterford, The storyline became predictable and slow to come to action, . Sure the good guys finally get the upper hand and liberate the states and June returns to the burned down Waterford house to start writing her story. Overall it ended underwhelmingly boring most of the time and closed the chapter of a series that was unique. Like I said before, the fourth season could have given a better ending than this mess. Moss directed quite a few episodes but sometimes you got to ask what's best for the story. I am glad it ended but it felt a few holes that were not closed or explained. Did June ever find her daughter? All we learned was Luke and June separated because of their differences, I was like what how and why? Oh well, at least my wife won't have any more nightmares.

Handmaid's Tale: Fifth Season catapulted June to face her consequences upon the murder of Fred Waterford. Her actions brought hatred to Americans living in Canada. This season hoped to show unity and conformity between June and Serena as they travel West to get away from the mob of haters. They help each other with their kids, to protect one another but by mid season Serena is back in Gilead to be a role model to bring a new culture and community to show the world that Gilead has changed that they no longer abuse handmaids. In the meantime June makes it to Alaska which is still under American rule and she reunites with her mother Holly (Cherry Jones). Season five shows the emphasis of revenge, complacency, and overall reach of Gilead power in other countries. At this point the storyline is crumbling and terrorizing especially with June's blank evil stares. One more season to go, maybe it will be better although I could foresee how this is going to end.
