The Handmaid's Tale: Serena Joy Doesn't Deserve Our Sympathy
Warning: This post contains spoilers for season 5 episode 7 'No Man's Land,' which aired October 19, 2022. Blessed be the fruit loops!'The Handmaid's Tale' has a way of catching the audience off guard. My first shocker moment was a few months before the show was released when I was refreshing my browser every few minutes for updates. I was certain that they would screw it up somehow, remove the theocratic elements or underfund it. There are certain subjects that Hollywood avoids, and Margaret Atwood's novel contained all of them. When I saw the picture of Yvonne Strahovski, I was furious. The Serena that I loved was played by the legendary Faye Dunaway in the 1990 film, and Strahovski was nothing like her. I wanted twisted TBN, snake-eyes, and 3-foot-high curls--someone intimidating and absurd. Instead, they gave us a stock photo model with whitened teeth. She belonged in a Gap window display, not a theocratic dictatorship. I took to social media to air my grievances. I thought the rest of the fanbase would agree with me. But they saw something I didn't. Serena was a political pundit who helped win the hearts and minds of the nation. She was supposed to subtle and deceptive. People would look at her and think she was some gluten-free college graduate that studied Buddhism and took yoga classes--not a vicious wife with a beating cane and a handmaid confined to her room. It made sense.
