Jan 31, 2023I enjoyed watching the 1st two episodes and looking forward to the remaining episodes. Very well done!
-
Jan 29, 2023A well-intentioned alternative history of the US, set in a different universe or timeline. Taken with a grain - okay a handful - of salt, it's an interesting watch if you're a fan of The Handsmaid tale or Motherland: Fort Salem.
-
Jan 28, 20231st episode was well done. I encourage everyone to read the entire book though. You'll understand so much more on so many levels.
-
Jan 27, 2023What utter nonsense. How anyone could watch this and believe it's based on truth is beyond me.
