    The Handmaid's Tale

    First Season 2 trailer just dropped: Premieres April 25th. Alexis Bledel's evidently gonna be back, too -- I just read an article which mentioned that we're going to get to see Emily's flashbacks to getting her passport denied.

    The Handmaid's Tale

    Thanks, Josh. ;) Back in college, I had a Canadian girlfriend (from the suburban Vancouver-area). I'm actually still on good terms with her and her folks, so that might be another option for me, too. Also, I kinda love the premise of the upcoming Far Cry 5, which is set in Montana, and it's all...

    The Handmaid's Tale

    Yeah, this episode was pretty damn harrowing, and all the little details like Erin finally coming to terms with her new life up north and her coffee, the seemingly-ominous hunter and his dog, the 9/11-style "missing persons" wall at the consulate, and the new U.S. flag (two "filled-in" stars...

    Seriously, this thread should have been titled, "THE HANDSMAID'S TALE (the one on Hulu, not the one on C-SPAN)"

    The Handmaid's Tale

    Just watched episode 5 -- I'm thinking this was how Rory's yacht-theft on Gilmore Girls SHOULD'VE gone, dammit. With lots of dudes with machine guns, screaming, and awesome exploding body-parts. :laugh:

    The Handmaid's Tale

    Renewed for a second season: http://www.variety.com/2017/tv/news/the-handmaids-tale-renewed-season-2-hulu-1202407505/ The plan is for it to be an ongoing series. Maybe ultimately what might happen is that they fill in the blanks between the end of Offred's story and the final chapter by...

    Am currently watching episode #4, and holy shit -- Donnie from Orphan Black plays Offred's gyno. LOL.

    The Handmaid's Tale

    ^ Yup, that was Atwood in a cameo -- she confirmed this in a NYT interview-piece last week (I think it was). I think the gorgeous cinematography makes the show (and the horrors it shows) relatively palatable. Or in some ways, the cinematography one would associate with a Masterpiece Theater...

    The Handmaid's Tale

    This show is fucking scary. That third episode is particularly tough to watch. One of the things I'm interested in seeing is how critics decide to talk about this show. It's easy to refer to these characters as their handmaid-names (Offred, Ofwarren, etc.), and in the book, you never learn...
