The Testaments TV Show Breaks Ratings Records

'The Testaments' TV Series Breaks Ratings Records with Dystopian Drama

May 27, 2025

The highly anticipated television adaptation of The Testaments, Margaret Atwood’s sequel to The Handmaid’s Tale, has taken the streaming world by storm, shattering viewership records in its debut weekend. The series, produced by Hulu in collaboration with MGM Television, has already sparked intense discussions about its chilling portrayal of Gilead’s next chapter.

A Triumphant Return to Gilead

Set 15 years after the events of The Handmaid’s Tale, The Testaments follows the intertwined lives of three women—Aunt Lydia (Ann Dowd), Agnes (Cailey Fleming), and Daisy (Yara Shahidi)—as they navigate the brutal theocracy of Gilead and the resistance fighting to bring it down. Fans of the original novel and series were thrilled to see Dowd reprise her Emmy-winning role, now with even greater complexity as her character’s hidden motives come to light.

Critical Acclaim and Fan Reactions

Early reviews have praised the show’s gripping storytelling, stunning cinematography, and powerhouse performances. The Hollywood Reporter called it 'a masterful expansion of Atwood’s dystopia,' while Variety highlighted Shahidi’s standout portrayal of Daisy, a young woman raised in Canada who discovers her shocking connection to Gilead.

Social media has been ablaze with reactions, particularly after the explosive third episode, which featured a long-awaited reunion between two fan-favorite characters. Twitter user @GileadResister tweeted, 'The Testaments just ripped my heart out and stitched it back together. That last scene? ICONIC.'

Renewal Already in the Works?

With such a massive debut, industry insiders speculate that Hulu is fast-tracking a second season, though no official announcement has been made. Showrunner Yahlin Chang has hinted at plans to delve deeper into the novel’s themes of rebellion and redemption, teasing, 'We’ve only just scratched the surface of Gilead’s downfall.'

As the world of The Testaments continues to unfold, one thing is clear: viewers are hooked, and Gilead’s grip on pop culture remains as strong as ever.
