Thanks for sharing.  First couple seasons, that show was about as dark as it gets, brutal stuff. Overall we have enjoyed it, I had forgotten the commander ate it.

Checking in to report that slow show remains slow... Oh, and the characters are all fucking stupid.

I tapped out in the middle of the previous season. Watching it feels like being constipated.

I watch this because the wife does. I feel like this show needs “suicidal thoughts” for men warning at the beginning. 

It's the Colin Robinson of TV shows.

Everything so far could have been covered in two episodes. We've spent hours of self-indulgent, drawn-out angst about June's inevitable return to the fight all played on endless close-ups of E. Moss's face. I'm embarrassed for Moss as she directed the first few episodes (likely bait to keep her going with the show). "You, know what this show needs is another close-up of my face."

I thought the show mercifully ended last season, too. I wonder if they just couldn't resist going another season for whatever gain the network gets out of it. More subscribers or subscribers staying? 

I'm glad that the buried pistol didn't just work after she dug it up. Ann Dowd's Aunt Lidia is the heart of the show right now. My God, what an actress. Bradley Whitford is the other actor injecting a little life and, egads!, even wit to the show. 

It's. All. So. Serious.

At this point, I just get angry whenever they do the closeup thing. Her face makes me angry.

It seems like they do it every episode.  June Suffering Porn or something......

Wife watches this and I would spend most of the time on my phone the first half of season as it seemed like they were just playing out the string (and should have ended it a season ago) but I thought the twist with Serena the last couple of episodes was pretty solid and kept me watching.  But yeah - the June close ups are ridiculous.

It’s just the annual Serena isnt that bad until she is arc

Luke just showing up like nothing happened was total bullshit. "Yeah they just dropped me off at the border" . F that, one of them should have ended up on the wall if the writers gave a shit

This show keeps teasing me on the Hulu screen, and I keep passing it up. Guess I'm in the majority (on this thread) now. I watched the first episode and it was about as satisfying as a big wet fart. Building up the wife to be the new villain. June is broken and can't accept getting away and NEEDS to go back to the fight and set up another season of her undercover again? And of course ended with yet another close up of her face. Once I saw the face shot I figured they were just poking at us with that and letting us know they weren't changing for shit. Just a retread of past seasons. Not sure I'll ever get around to episode 2.

I will say that s5e8 was actually pretty solid. Of course you shouldn’t have to suffer through s3, s4, and 7 episodes of s5 before getting a good one. And yeah Luke should have been dead and not available to participate in this episode.
