Why did the Emmys hate ‘The Handmaid’s Tale”s new season?
The Handmaid’s Tale, Hulu’s excellent original drama, should be a tour de force at the Emmys right? From the groundbreaking performances from the cast to the shocking visuals to the excellent writing, the series that’s based on the Margaret Atwood book of the same should be like Hulu’s Game of Thrones. Instead, however, The Handmaid’s Tale made a different sort of history at the Emmys.
Instead, The Handmaid’s Tale new season (season 4) was nominated for twenty-one categories. It did not win a single one. Like, wow. Why did the Emmy awards snub the new season of the series that badly? How are fans taking it? Well, let’s go over to Twitter to see their reactions.
The fourth season of #TheHandmaidsTale deserved much, much better than a historic 0-21 #Emmys shut-out. Rolling my eyes big time. pic.twitter.com/PJ9wPS5fV1

Everyone’s getting eye strain from the eye rolls we did.

Like not even a technical award? Really?
Let's be clear: #TheHandmaidsTale still fucking rules. The #Emmys be damned. We are proud fans. 21 nominations for a fourth season, whew, the accomplishment. pic.twitter.com/fcGeeaX8Ep

Golden rule
Just because a show didn’t win an Emmy award does not invalidate the success of said series.

*sigh*
Well it’s in good company. Although WandaVision did win three Creative Arts Emmys.
I will never get over how amazing it is that all four #TheHandmaidsTale supporting actresses got in at the #Emmys. 🤩 The quality of work is just absolutely astounding! I wish we could give all four a statuette for season 4. pic.twitter.com/VxSCdpHwVy

All of them deserved the love in the world.

Not even one?
It deserved at least one. The last time this happened was back in 2012 with Mad Men.
The way things are going in America, The Handmaid’s Tale should have won the Emmy for best Documentary/Non-Fiction Series.

Well . . .
You’re not wrong.
Crown winning everything over Pose and The Handmaid’s Tale… #Emmys pic.twitter.com/ZN53zm6tIa

Ugh
We’re saying it. Pose & The Handmaid’s Tale were way way better than The Crown.
