Take a look at The Handmaid's Tale Series Graph (episodes ranked by fan rating), and you'll see a near-impossible feat: back-to-back 9.0 and 5.7 ratings for the final two episodes of season 6. Translated, that's a Game of Thrones scale of reaction to the show's final-ever episode.
Given that the season 6 finale was an outright setup for new Hulu and Disney+ sequel series The Testaments, things didn't look too rosy. Thankfully, the reality is completely different — and I genuinely think The Testaments is as good as season 1 of The Handmaid's Tale.
