For all its awards and acclaims, The Handmaid’s Tale has been a little light on extras. No Funko Pops, no fashion dolls, no keychains… not that the subject matter really lends itself to toys and light-hearted accessories. Although I do like many of the fan-made t-shirts… But I started hearing people talk about a graphic […]
What a harrowing episode this was! Everywhere you looked, the state of Gilead and the residents we have come to know and love go through unspeakable trials and traumas. And all the while, I keep thinking of Frankenstein, that early gothic horror novel by Mary Shelley. It is commonly assessed that she wrote the book […]
This has been a busy week for news about The Handmaid’s Tale! Show producers have been presenting Season 2 at the Television Critics Association meeting over the last couple of days. Among tidbits of info that have come out: Season 2 will debut on April 25. Marisa Tomei will be a Season 2 guest star, […]

It’s hard to believe we only have two episodes left for this first season of The Handmaid’s Tale! This show has truly touched nerves and created a lot of discussion.

Lots of surprises in episode 108! What thoughts have you had about Nick’s background? The only thing we know is that Serena Joy told Offred that Nick had been with them “a long time.” This week, we get some insight into the Waterford’s driver/bodyguard. And do you think that Gilead is all prayer and holiness? […]
First, let’s all give a big cheer of “Under His Eye!” Hulu announced today that they have renewed Handmaid’s Tale for a second season! It will be fascinating to see where they can go with this small book. So far, I’m really impressed with the additions and extrapolations, and I’m enjoying – and am horrified […]
I’ve always been a fan of dystopian fiction. Children of Men, The Passage, The Physician’s Tale, some of my favorites (if you haven’t heard of some of those, look them up!). Many years ago, I read Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale, and it made a very strong impression. Somehow, I missed the 1990 film starring […]
When Hulu decided to adapt Margaret Atwood’s dystopian novel The Handmaid’s Tale, they couldn’t have known that, more than a year later, US women – and women around the world – would be so concerned about the erosion of their rights that they would rise up and protest the incoming administration in the numbers that […]
