If you don't have a Hulu or you haven't watched "The Handmaid's Tale"... you really should get on it. Here's why it's slowly becoming my guilty pleasure show.
1. It's a Hulu original
Basically, you aren't going to be able to watch them anywhere else, much like Netflix originals.
2. It's Based On A Book
Honestly, movies based on great books are usually phenomenal. Why would a show based on a book be any different?
3. It Is Compelling
It's dark and twisted and you really just can't look away. The actors/actresses are incredible to watch in their roles.
4. It Could Happen For Real
Maybe not to the extremes shown in the show... but government overthrow? Certain people losing basic freedoms? Gilead was and is based on biblical teachings, hence some of the actions and punishments.
5. It's Bingeable
I started Season 1 at like 3:30 p.m. one weekend. I stayed up and watched until around 4 a.m. The next day when I woke up, I finished Season 1. This was/is actually the worst, because now I have to watch week to week like a peasant.
