Hulu dropped the first 3 episodes Monday. It’s weird how much I’ve been looking forward to thus given how much I dislike the prequel (aka the new), but I managed to watch the first episode last night. I was not disappointed. It didn’t take long for Serena Joy to show her true colors. I knew that there was going to be a big surprise at the end, but I was expecting the train to be rerouted to Gilead, not for June’s mother to show up alive and well. 
On a side note where did they get those train cars and is ut even possible to take a train to Alaska over freight tracks?
Damn, we just had episode six “Janine”, and no one has chimed in yet. We might be the only two dopers watching! I’m usually on the reddit boards.
I have to say I’m surprised at a new season after all this time. I just figured they killed it. Now I’ll have to reopen my Hulu account.
Whatever awful thing Warton has in store for Serena she deserves it. I can understand the rational behind installing a crematorium in Jezebels, who does idea was it to not have security cameras and give Marthas unrestricted access to it? 
Nothings changed since High Commander Winslow mysteriously dissappeared inside the same Jezebels.
I’m watching, haven’t watched the most recent episode yet. The delay between seasons 5 and 6 was way to long.
I started season 6 and realized I had no idea what was going on. I watched some recaps of season 5 and I barely remembered half of it! So I rewatched the last two episodes of 5 and felt sufficiently prepared to continue. Way too much time passed between seasons, IMHO.
I’ve watched through episode 5 and I just really can’t see how they’re going to successfully land this. It seems like they’ve wasted so much time in both this season and prior ones for very little advancement of the plot towards a (plausible) resolution. I’ll finish the season since it’s the last one.
Where exactly is New Bethlehem? I assumed it was Nantucket or Marthas Vineyard, but it’s suspiciously easy to get to from Boston by car all hours of the night. Do Commanders have access to a 24 hour ferry service?
My thought that it was close to the border, more like upstate New York or Vermont.
So am I the only one who wonders if Mayday was so quick to send June back Gilead after her screwup is because they kinda hope she dies? Also if Serena were to be decapitated what animal’s head would you like get stuck on her body for the parade?
