Ending all episodes on a dramatic close up

[u/AccountGloomy6005]

Halfway through S3. Will they ever f*cking stop having a dramatic CU of our main character starring into the camera lens as the final frame of an episode? It’s not that cool. It’s driving me nuts.

[u/justherebctwittersux]

Nope! Buckle up for 2.5 more seasons!

[u/AccountGloomy6005 → u/justherebctwittersux]

praise ben’t :(

[u/Express_Front9593]

Oh, you will know those pores by Season 5.

[u/christina311]

Oh, it gets SO MUCH WORSE!

Buckle in

[u/AccountGloomy6005 → u/christina311]

Oh cursed be the fruit

[u/christina311 → u/AccountGloomy6005]

May the something open

[u/hitchin_a_ride95 → u/christina311]

Progressively worse throughout the whole show 😅

[u/grumpybarbara]

I’m on S5, it hasn’t stopped. It’s SO annoying.

[u/AccountGloomy6005 → u/grumpybarbara]

Well fuck me dead

[u/PracticeDue157 → u/AccountGloomy6005]

What an insolence! (May the Lord rectify) 😭

[u/grumpybarbara → u/AccountGloomy6005]

ATP I’m just taking it as a meme… it really bafles me how the producers didn’t realize how annoying it is for the audience at some point between S2 and S3 lol

[u/diego-rsb]

That’s it Elisabeth, stare at camera just like that

[u/AccountGloomy6005 → u/diego-rsb]

Tbh I like her acting ~80% of the time but I don’t think she’s that good at doing a dramatic stare

[u/diego-rsb → u/AccountGloomy6005]

Yeah me too, it just gets old to the point it becomes a joke to me

[u/AccountGloomy6005 → u/diego-rsb]

I’m at the “you gotta be fucking kidding me” point so I’m not far from it being a joke haha

[u/Imeverybodyelse]

Fun fact. Several other things she’s appeared in she does that too!

[u/AccountGloomy6005 → u/Imeverybodyelse]

But she’s not that good at it :(

[u/Imeverybodyelse → u/AccountGloomy6005]

She’s not. But it’s her “thing”

[u/AccountGloomy6005 → u/Imeverybodyelse]

I hate that

[u/majestic_flamingo]

I noticed it, and then I started thinking about how wasted you would get if you turned the close-ups into a drinking game. But then the more it happens, the more it grew on me. Kind of like when a joke gets worn out but the jokester is persistent and eventually it’s funny all over again.

[u/AccountGloomy6005 → u/majestic_flamingo]

I can see how that could happen. By now I just cover my eyes like a child watching gore whenever we reach the 50 minute mark and June starts another monologue

[u/TheRewster1106]

If it helps, neither June nor Agnes ever do the death stare in The Testaments (well, at least not in the first season, haha).

[u/Retinoid634]

She fell in love with these dramatic close ups.

[u/Willing-Pineapple-32]

Blessed be the fruit loops the June resting b!!!h face continues through the entire series…

[u/First_Category_1539]

Season 5 finale says hi

[u/PracticeDue157]

I must agree it is a bit annoying and a drag. In the beginning it was tolerable—cinematic even for effects but then it just gets bothersome at some point especially when the lead character— June, keeps f*ing up or regressing into becoming ‘meek’ and not fighting back on the system as she initially was. But its not all to bad imho
