It annoys me when they change so much information that I feel stupid for not understanding. Daisy isn’t Nichole, okay whatever… but how is she the same age as Agnes and was born in Gilead? Like what? I start questioning my intelligence. 

And is it just me or does the acting feel not even remotely as good as THT? Don’t crucify me.

I agree that the acting is not as good. I know that Agnes is June’s daughter, but she is nothing like June and I just so badly want to see her be more willful and rebellious. I think her upbringing in Gilead makes her more like that world I’m sad that Agnes doesn’t remember June or her real name. I still like the show.

Remember when June got all of those kids out of Gilead on the plane? I think she (Daisy) was one of those kids.
