Now that we have Dems running both WH and Congress, it's less scary! Good time to catch up. (I had to take a break for a couple of years from Man in the High Castle after Trump was elected.)


Way to ruin a harmless, fun thread. Stop being so one-dimensional.

I really like how it appears that we are still dealing with our core characters and we haven't left the rest of the Handmaids behind. I want to see the outcomes for Alma, Jeanine, etc.

And thank goodness we've moved beyond Boston.


Wasn't that the Boston skyline in the scene with the resistance fighters in the pickup truck? I thought that was the Pru in the center of it?


I thought it was Chicago based on an article I read.

I wrote that quickly - I don't really have a problem with Boston as the location. In fact, I appreciated the way they worked in Fenway Park and The Boston Globe. It was more the situation in Boston - well-established Gilead society where June keeps ending up back in a home as a handmaid. I am ready to move away from that.


You could be right. I would love it if they moved it to Chicago. And yeah, the Boston Globe and Fenway scenes were really powerful.

Ooh I was wondering when this was coming back. I need to watch a season 3 recap as I’ve forgotten a lot of the details.

I kind of wish I hadn’t read The Testaments. I wonder if they will stick to the outcomes in that book, or go in a different direction. There are many years before the Testaments timeframe, but that book restricts what can and can’t happen to the main characters if they do plan to honor it.

That does look really good. The last scene of the trailer looks like it's June arriving in Canada. Hmmmm. . .
