    I just finished the first season of @HandmaidsOnHulu and holy mother of all things, that is one of the most monsterous, frightening shows I've ever seen. No wonder it took me so long to watch it. I'm not gonna sleep for a month.pic.twitter.com/xvTGTHNMJl

        I was in an evangelical cult for 16 years so I avoid this show for a lot of the same reasons I avoid 13 Reasons Why.

        I haven't been able to even finish the book. It is so crude and sad and makes me physically sick when I see all the parallels to reality. I like to think of it as self care 😥

        Did you never read the book? I was still fairly disturbed by the series even after reading the book, but people are often more disturbed when they find out how long ago the book was written. Vigilance is very important in politics.

        My girlfriend and I are taking a pass on it mainly because the world is already a garbage fire. I'm just not up for a show that makes me even more depressed about things

        a (male) friend asked me if people just watch it to feel bad for women and i said "well it certainly wont hurt if that is one of the reasons". it is a really tough show and such a foreshadowing tale of what we have to fight already today.

        OMG I'm addicted to Handmaid's Tale but viewers should definitely be in a healthy mental state to watch such a horrifying dystopia😱 The powerful cinematography & storytelling are also due in no small part to having a good balance of women directors & writers.

        I love Atwell and want to see it, but just can't bring myself to do it. Maybe in the next administration.

        You’re a stronger person than I, I still haven’t worked myself up to watching it. My wife absolutely refuses to. She said the book upset her badly enough that she still hasn’t gotten over it.

        It is scary indeed how many links you can find with the current situation...however, it shows the power of sorority aswell IMHO

        That piano theme they keep playing is the most subtley horrifying thing in the whole show. It makes every quiet scene wind up like bowstring until you can't stand it. Perfectly reflects what the characters are going through.

        Season 2 didn't feel as impacting unfortunately. Still worth watching imho.

        Thought Season 1 of Handmaid's Tale was brilliant and terrifying. Haven’t worked up the force of will to start S2 yet. The show is so good, but watching it is so hard.

        Watched the first...half or so of Season 1. Just couldn't bring myself to finish it. Felt like I'd "got the message", as it were.
