The Handmaids Tale S4

[FrankiesKnuckle]

New trailer has dropped, It's released in the US on the 28th April so hopefully the UK won't be far behind.
I've been rewatching the previous 3 seasons during this lockdown - I'd forgotten so much!
I'm very much looking forward to S4 - praise be!

Can't wait for this! I've just rewatched seasons 1-3 (again).

Gosh, I’m really looking forward to seeing this.

Agghhh, so bloody excited for this!!! It's been ages!

Say what ?

I hadn't realised there would be another. Can't wait.

Blessed be the fruit loops

Hopefully the script will be online, Elisabeth Moss is the mumbliest actress ever.

What channel?

Under his fruit
Blessings be his eye

There's a lady where we live who is the ABSOLUTE IMAGE of Aunt Lydia.

It will be channel 4 again. We usually get it a few weeks after the Americans on HULU

Does anyone know the best place to watch season 3?

I watched 1&2 on now TV but it’s not even on there anymore ☹️

Can't wait I'm so excited!!

@MooseyGoose90 it's currently on Amazon prime, all 3 seasons are.

I can't even remember what happened at the end of season 3 it's been so long

I wonder if it will combine anything from The Testaments?

@Pieceofpurplesky I hadn't thought of that. Think I'll have to reread!

@Pieceofpurplesky I am wondering the same - I just finished reading it. However, Elizabeth Moss's character would hardly be in it at all if that was the case, and it would need to be set a good 15 years or so later than the earlier seasons as "baby Nicole" is all grown up, whereas the trailer seems to show it as being set immediately after the events of the earlier seasons. I believe Margaret Atwood intended to write The Testaments in such a way that it would compliment and not contradict the events of the TV series without expecting to feed into the TV series directly.

I am super excited about S4. We're just in the middle of S2, rewatching them all ready for this.

I think it might be too soon for any Testaments stuff? I seem to remember reading a quote from one of the show makers about how they had loads of stuff to put into the TV show because 'there was 15 years to cover before they got to The Testaments. But some of the book referenced past events, so maybe there is some content that can be included earlier than the rest?

Any idea when it'll be on Netflix?

I think they might start laying some hints about aunt Lydia a d her role in the testaments (no spoilers for those who haven't read it)

It mentions in the history convention bit of the handmaids tale that a Fred Waterford disappeared during a purge shortly after the events of the book. I wonder if that will be explored more.

That's what I was thinking twiz perhaps they will start to blend the characters (don't want to give spoilers)

Love this show and really looking forward to it being back on!

I used the subtitles option when I watched it

Oh excellent news. I didn't even know there was another one coming. Very exciting. Place marking. I hated the Testament

We've just sat down to watch an episode - the one in season 2 where the baby is unwell. I am struck (again) but how beautifully acted it is. Every single actor absolutely pulling their weight, in parts small and large.

My favourite series ever.

@Douchebaggette Watching it again, I know the 'Big' things that happen so seeing the nuances more clearly this time. It's so beautifully shot too. Stunning bit of telly.
