One of the biggest Hulu original shows is back for its final season and the reviews are once again overwhelmingly positive. The Handmaid’s Tale, based on the novel by Margaret Atwood, stood as one of Hulu’s first true breakout originals back in 2017. The series has garnered plenty of acclaim over the course of its first five seasons, and that trend has continued into the sixth and final installment.

The first three episodes of The Handmaid’s Tale Season 6 debuted Tuesday, marking the beginning of the end for the story of June and her fight to end Gilead. Along with those episodes came the reviews for the final season, every single one of which has sang the show’s praises.
So far, The Handmaid’s Tale Season 6 has kept a perfect 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes. All 16 reviews from critics that have been turned in are positive, indicating that The Handmaid’s Tale is going out on a very high note. That’s not exactly an easy task after six seasons.
“June’s unyielding spirit and determination pull her back into the fight to take down Gilead,” reads Hulu’s official logline for The Handmaid’s Tale Season 6. “Luke and Moira join the resistance. Serena tries to reform Gilean while Commander Lawrence and Aunt Lydia reckon with what they wrought, and Nick faces challenging tests of character. This final chapter of June’s journey highlights the importance of hope, courage, solidarity and resilience in the pursuit of justice and freedom.”
