The Handmaid’s Tale (Hulu)

Surprised there wasn’t a thread on this. Wife and I started it last week. We’re on season two now. Pretty good thus far. Some of the themes are pretty striking, given today’s political climate.

I've heard a ton of great things about this show.

Hulu seems to be building quite a nice stable of shows. I need to plan a free trial month one of these days.

We’re on season two episode five and my wife is ready to take a break and switch to a comedy. Not a lot of happy endings on this show.

it's a tough watch, especially as a binge, not only because it's so messed up, but because it gives a terrifying look at what's an outside chance of happening here. Yes, that's a DIRE statement, but when this country keeps making rapists and attempted rapists Presidents and Supreme Court Justices, it doesn't strain credulity to fear we're going towards a very dark future.
