    Offred must navigate between Commanders, their cruel Wives, domestic Marthas, and her fellow Handmaids – where anyone could be a spy for Gilead – with one goal: to survive and find the daughter who was taken from her.

  • Season 2 (13 Episodes)

    Season two is shaped by Offred’s pregnancy and her ongoing fight to free her future child from the dystopian horrors of Gilead. “Gilead is within you” is a favorite saying of Aunt Lydia and in this season, Offred and all our characters will fight against – or succumb to – this dark truth.

    June strikes back against Gilead as a fierce rebel leader, but the risks she takes bring unexpected and dangerous new challenges. Her quest for justice and revenge threatens to consume her and destroy her most cherished relationships.

    June faces consequences for killing Commander Waterford while struggling to redefine her identity and purpose. The widowed Serena attempts to raise her profile in Toronto as Gilead’s influence creeps into Canada. Commander Lawrence works with Nick and Aunt Lydia as he tries to reform Gilead and rise in power.

  • Peter89Spencer (Not rated)

    Elizabeth Moss' performance though was pretty good.

    While I don't condone the mistreatment of women in the series, I do praise it for popularity nonetheless.

    I wonder what the conclusion of the show...

  • GenerationofSwine (Rated: 1)

    People are going to look back at the Censorship decade and think that this and Harry Potter are the only two books the cancel culture freaks read...

    ... and then realize that they were both adapted for the screen.

    This was good when they made it for HBO in the 1990s when it had an actual plot ...
