Bonus: Show Creator Bruce Miller

Handmaid's Tale creator Bruce Miller has worked in TV for years, but this show presented a singular challenge. “Usually the books you adapt stink,” he says. “This is a great book. So you really want to capture that feeling, that greatness, on TV. ... I was you. I didn't want to see the ruined version of this either.” We got to speak to Miller about the show this week, for a special bonus episode of The Red Center. He talks about working with Margaret Atwood, where the show will go in season 2, and the joys of writing profanity. We also ask him if Jeannine is really dead, to mixed success.
