The Handmaid's Tale is streaming in Malaysia on HBO Max.
What the audience says
The Handmaid's Tale has pulled the kind of numbers most English series never see. It's sitting at 8.2/10 on TMDB across 3,447 ratings, which puts it comfortably above average.
Is it worth starting?
This is 6 seasons deep — English drama with a sci-fi & fantasy streak. Several seasons in, so it's a commitment to start rather than a one-night sampler.
- Why
- It rates 8.2/10 on 3,445 ratings so far — a strong early showing.
- Skip if
- you don't want to start something several seasons deep
- Best for
- A long run rather than a single sitting
