After the last Presidency. This is almost too triggering to watch now.

I'm only a third of the way through the last season because I just couldn't handle it.

Yes, it was waaaaaaay too close for comfort in a lot of ways, but I want to see the fall of Gilead. I was so excited at the end of last season with the Waterfords and what happened in the last episode with the plane.

I feel the same way! Like having sat through so much torture porn, I need to see them all pay at the end to cleanse my palate

I'm surprised it's coming out in April, I thought it'd be later. TBH, I found the last season just too brutal and anxiety-inducing and I had to skim a lot of the episodes, particularly [Spoiler (click to open)]when they showed the scene towards the 'beginning' of Gilead, with June and the other women watching as disabled women were shoved off trucks, into a room and then presumably taken to be killed; and all the stuff in D.C. with the mouth stitches.

Although has anyone read The Testaments? I know Hulu picked up the rights to adapt it, but I'm really curious as to what they're going to do with their version of The Handmaid's Tale to make it line up (or not) with the sequel book, since some of the characterization and revelations from The Testaments book I don't see working with their series.

The DC stuff disturbed me out of continuing with the rest of the season too tbh, just thinking of it now is just as unsettling as watching it that first time

[little_vienna]

It was truly horrific. Especially with that initial reveal.

[rubie_dubidoux]

the DC stuff was so disturbing made me so so so so uncomfortable after watching it, but I felt better after realizing that that could never be physically possible. those women's teeth would just rot out of their skulls and they wouldn't be able to like... eat or drink at all? it was done for shock value, and it worked, but it made no damn sense

I'm shocked this show is only on its 4th season. I feel like its been around forever

[missmagic12]

Well it did have two years basically between the last two seasons.

I still haven’t watched the 3rd season. The finale of the 2nd season made me mad and I just haven’t been in the mindset to start back up.

[lyra_loo]

same but this trailer is intriguing... I kinda want to try again now.

[vandthemoon]

I really should as well. I like the show, it’s just so heavy.

[l_a_r_m]

Same! I always had a crazy dream or nightmare when I watched a new episode before bed.

[adb7]

Is this show less bleak now?

[arabian]

No. But I loved the ending. I felt like there was a purity of hope in June's final moments and those of the people she was involved with.
