The Testaments TV Series
I’d vaguely remembered that Hulu was adapting The Testaments, Margaret Atwood’s follow-up to The Handmaid’s Tale, as a sequel to the TV series of the same name, but I was surprised to find out that the show has premiered and is already three episodes in (a fourth will be available today).
The initial series lost its way after 2-3 seasons, but I still ended up watching the whole thing. I’ll probably give The Testaments a shot as well.

I had not heard about this either! I enjoyed the book.
Maybe it will make good TV but I unfortunately found the book somewhat dreadful. Starts strong but goes off the rails into I don’t know what. Kind of confusing and pointless by the end. I wanted to like it!
I enjoyed the book but honestly cannot remember a lot of it. Just started the series this evening, no opinion yet.
