Reviews (1)
Returning to Aunt Lydia and then to the Waterfords brought back a hint of the atmosphere from the first season, but I was disappointed by how much time the creators devoted to all those ceremonies before the birth of the baby. I've already seen them all once, so the strongest impression I took away was from a truly terrifying detail on Offred's face in one of the opening scenes. Similar shots appeared a few more times, so I'm honestly glad that I don't have a plasma screen where her expression could permanently sear into my mind and haunt me every day again and again. ()
