Handmaids Tale

I read The Testaments when it first came out. It is excellent.

I haven’t watch one episode although I think I get the gist of the story. I just couldn’t face the abuse of women on tv.

When I heard that the last episode was to be shown, I visualized the heroine dying of shot wounds, seeing her child run free across the boarder to a safe country.
Well it seems I got it wrong, never mind.

I know it would have been nice to have a "happy ever after" ending, with Hannah being restored to her real family, but it wouldn't have been realistic. It ended on the vaguely optimistic note that June would keep searching.

Thoroughly enjoyed all the series and the book, I thought the last episode was nicely reflective and sets the scene for hopefully " The Testaments "

I have not watched the last 3 series of this programme; since I read The Testaments I have no intention of watching it. The Testaments concluded the story for me, as it demonstrates that the end is in sight for the regime, and that is enough for me.

I read The Handmaid's Tale before the TV series began in 2017, and then re-read it. The postscript in that book details a 'future', that and The Testaments was enough for me. If that book is a series, I may watch it.

I have followed it from start to finish. Some unresolved questions will be answered in the follow up, Testaments, which I think Elisabeth Moss is producing.

When June stands in her old room and says, 'A chair. A table. A lamp....' I think this is the beginning of 'her story' that people were telling her to write for future generations. These are the opening words to chapter 2 of The Handmaid's Tale.

I read The Testaments when it came out a few years ago, no spoilers but it certainly continues the story and Hannah appears in it. Not sure when it's going to be televised.
Sorry I can't do links but there's a lot of information online if you search ' last ever episode of The Handmaid's Tale'.

A dear friend and I have been watching this drama from the very beginning. We couldn't wait for this last series and have discussed every episode. How disappointed we both were with the ending! So many issues unresolved, so many questions unanswered. Did she get Hannah back? Why did it end with her saying "I am Ofred"? After all the dramas, it was as if the writers had just given up on the story and thrown their pens down. I wonder what Margaret Atwood thought of the ending? It was so disappointing.

Just finished watching on catchup, really disappointed with that last final episode.
They just sort of filled with it with June reminiscing about the past.
We don’t know whether she gets her daughter back, or not.
I think that captain has fallen for Serena ( I like her), says he will find her, does he?
Does June get back with her partner?
BTW, loved last weeks episode, shame about Laurence, I liked him.
Hopefully we might find out in a few years, by then we will have totally forgotten what it’s about 😩

Oh loved Aunt Lydia by the end.
Praise be! Under his Eye!

I only watched the first series- it got too stretched out and repetitive.

Are we in for more?

God preserve us...

Like you I watched from very first and eposide and feel there have been many questions left unanswered including we're is Hannah. Very frustrated, worst ending

No. I expect she will continue her search as she knows where Hannah has been taken. It’s the one loose end that wasn’t tied up.
