The Handmaid's Tale (Hulu) #7: "Wake up America, morning's over."
+ Adapted from the classic novel by Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid's Tale is the story of life in the dystopia of Gilead, a totalitarian society in what was formerly the United States. Facing environmental disasters and a plunging birthrate, Gilead is ruled by a twisted fundamentalism in its militarized ‘return to traditional values'. As one of the few remaining fertile women, Offred (Elisabeth Moss) is a Handmaid in the Commander’s household, one of the caste of women forced into sexual servitude as a last desperate attempt to repopulate the world. In this terrifying society, Offred must navigate between Commanders, their cruel Wives, domestic Marthas, and her fellow Handmaids – where anyone could be a spy for Gilead – all with one goal: to survive and find the daughter that was taken from her. Official Instagram Cast: Elisabeth Moss as June Osborne/Offred Joseph Fiennes as Commander Fred Waterford Yvonne Strahovski as Serena Joy Waterford Alexis Bledel as Emily/Ofglen (later Ofsteven) Madeline Brewer as Janine/Ofwarren (later Ofdaniel) Ann Dowd as Aunt Lydia O. T. Fagbenle as Luke Bankole, June's husband Max Minghella as Nick Blaine Samira Wiley as Moira __________________

You're all welcome.
I swear, this is one of those shows where I just need to discuss the ep with anyone who watches the show. And also it's the only show I watch for the day because I get really depressed after and can't even try watching another show to distract me. __________________

^ Me too. This is the closest to real-life so it's pretty disturbing to me.

It is pretty dreary... but I think other shows are gorier/grosser sometimes.
And Ive watched a bunch of Netflix documentaries that are about REAL people. And real murder, torture, rape etc. Thats more disturbing to me because it actually happened. __________________
