The Handmaid's Tale (New Hulu Mini-Series)

Just started watching this.  Fucking hell, it's a bundle of joy isn't it?

Yeah me too, really struggled to get through the bleakness of ep1, struggled through ep2 where the woman sings a Bob Marley song at a baby for fucking ages. Ep3 annoyed me when they tried to make some point about the guy saying 'my wife', as if that implies ownership any more than saying 'my teacher' or 'my boss' and it also annoyed me that they wouldn't all just fuck off to Canada or the UK there and then.

Will try ep4 tonight but i'm not promising anything.

Haven't read the thread because of spoilers so someone has surely mentioned this but it is very nice that no americans are at all racist any more in this universe, wasn't expecting that.

I mean it's good, but surely tae fuck the whole 10 episodes can't keep this level of nagging, seasick, dread?

This just seems like woke soft porn to me.
