***From June to Offred: A 21st century slave tale!*

SEASON 01:**

I was not sure to give it a try, in the end I just went on. The reason was, another dystopian theme. It was a short season with the 10 episodes, and I've got a mixed feeling. It was based on the 30 year old novel of the same name. I mean 3 decades old source is very old in the present trend. Since that book there were plenty of films, series were made similar to that theme, including one feature film adaptation. I don't know the screenplay was highly borrowed from its original source, but all I expected was alterable.... read the rest.

The Show is great! i will admit when my wife said i have a show we should watch i thought what is this? but after the first episode I was hooked. I recommend this show but it is quite confronting and if you have trouble with that type of thing it may not be for you.

Every now and then a production comes along that such an absolute gem, it has you lost for words.

A Handmaids Tale, is based on the novel by Canadian author Margaret Atwood . I have not yet read the book but if this series is anything to go by, it will, I'm sure, make its way into my collection very soon.

On the surface the premise behind the series seems novel. Yet when you consider the fate of women in contemporary and historic theocratic societies, its not so far fetched.

This is one messed up TV show; about a dystopian America ruled by a misogynistic government.

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 will be like?

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 and was actually pro-Atwood.

Only the people that made this turned on Atwood during #MeToo when she spoke out in favor of Due Process and then it slowly started to distance itself from her IP... as it became more and more in your face political.

And that is when things like this lose me.
