When it comes to major and conspicuously long-running sci-fi streaming shows from recent years, there's no ignoring The Handmaid's Tale. This adaptation of a hugely influential and popular novel by Margaret Atwood was an immediate sensation when it came out in 2017, and went on to last for an impressive six seasons.
