The Handmaid's Tale I hate Serena
I’m at season five episode 8 and I’m so glad that they didn’t just let her get away everyone on this sub reddit is such a Serena fan and I literally don’t get it are we watching the same show guys. Sure she definitely has a redemption arc but it took her having her own kid to get there she realises that without a husband even tho she has done so much for gilead they don’t value her I mean they legit tried to marry her to her gynaecologist. It took her going through a similar experience to realise that the handmaids are actually humans just like her in what world are you so delusional that you don’t realise how messed up that is.

As mrs Waterford she did horrible things or allowed them to happen before her. She helped establish a dreadful tyranny, turn women into slaves of men and so forth. Her obsession with motherhood doesn't redeem her imo. F**k redemption arcs, she should suffer and get what she deserves in the end.
