The Handmaid's Tale: Offred (2017)
No. Please do not watch this.
I have just finished episode 4 of Handmaid's Tale, so I thought I would take a moment to reflect on the first four episodes of the show. I will specifically focus on this first episode in this review.
This show is straight up terrible. If you want to save an hour of your day, do not watch this show. The main actress is very painful to watch and she has a personality blander than a piece of white bread. The "sexual tension" that this show is famous for is nothing more than awkward silence with practically no purpose. I constantly found myself looking towards my phone for salvation from the boredom. The journey that Offred goes on is one of suffering and inefficient decision making. If you want adventure, drama, espionage, and "sexual tension" done right, go watch Game of Thrones. This show will disappoint and leave you wondering why you ever started it in the first place.
