The Handmaid’s Tale

Is anyone watching the latest series?

Not me, I couldn't get on with the original series

I have watched from the beginning and really enjoyed it but the whole thing started to lose momentum. Should have been limited to three series. The rest is just padding.

Tyrion. I agree the first few episodes of this final series seem to have been a bit padded out but it's certainly picked up now.  I've read the book which is a very quick read so they've done well to turn it into three series.  I think the next episode must be the last and the impression I get is that they're going for it with all guns blazing - literally.

Sorry, this final series is season 6.

i'm watching this series as I want to see it through to the end but iI id start to get a bit fed up with it. Only so many Elisabeth Moss meaningful close ups I can take! 

Ther are 3 more episodes to go. Nex week does look like it will be action packed! 

Then we have the Testaments to come....

[naomi24]

Oh really?  Given the end of this episode I assumed that next week would see the last.   I'll check out the Testaments.  I don't know what that is.  Thanks chelle.

The Testaments is the sequel - also an Atwood book, featuring Aunt Lydia and June's daughters. 

I believe they have just starting production on the first series.

I've read The Handmaid's Tale but I had no idea there was a sequel.  I must get that. Thanks again.
