<h2>A legacy worth revisiting</h2>
Mad Men is widely regarded as one of the greatest TV shows ever made, running for seven critically acclaimed seasons. While there may not be an urgent need to reboot such a beloved series, a continuation of events following the finale or a spin-off could be intriguing for fans.
Meanwhile, Elisabeth Moss is starring in the final season of The Handmaid&rsquo;s Tale, which will consist of ten episodes. It is set to premiere on 8 April 2025, with new episodes releasing every Tuesday on Hulu. Indian viewers can stream the series on Prime Video.

The Handmaid's Tale star Elisabeth Moss is open to return for a Mad Men reboot

Elisabeth Moss is going to be a mother soon as The Handmaid’s Tale actress confirmed her pregnancy during an appearance at Jimmy Kimmel Live! She looked visibly pregnant as she walked out from the side of the stage and took a seat next to the host.&nbsp;

As soon as she sat down, Jimmy addressed the elephant in the room and asked, “Are you pregnant or just an incredibly committed method actor?” She didn’t even take a moment and replied, “A little bit of both.”

Elisabeth didn’t talk much about her pregnancy aside from the fact that the whole pregnancy is going well for her and that she’s been “really lucky”. She did not name the baby’s father but did ask Kimmel for advice.&nbsp;

On a piece of advice he had to give to the actress, the father of four reiterated what Bill Murray had told him once, “He said, ‘Bring Christmas lights to hang up,'” referring to the delivery room’s lack of soft lighting. He added that Murray also suggested battery-powered candles. “Because the lighting is terrible in the room. It’s Walmart-style lighting for this blessed event that’s going to happen and you don’t want that.”

Elisabeth Moss to star in Steven Knight's thriller series 'The Veil'

Our first look teaser for the upcoming fifth season of 'The Handmaid's Tale' is here. Hulu's multiple Emmy-winning dystopian series is created by Bruce Miller and is based on Margaret Wood's celebrated novel of the same name. The story is set in near-future New England. Most of the United States has become a white supremacist and patriarchal state called the Republic of Gilead after the government was overthrown by a religious cult called Sons of Jacob. The main protagonist Offred and later June (Elisabeth Moss) is one of the 'handmaids', who are women whose only purpose is to produce children for the ruling class.

The new season's teaser is a clip clocking just over a minute and shows that the struggle for June is still not over. In the finale of season 4, June and the other handmaids beat Commander Fred Waterford (Joseph Fiennes) to death and sent his severed finger and wedding ring to his wife Serena (Yvonne Strahovski).

In Season 5, June will have to face the consequences of her actions. The teaser promises a bloody, action-packed season. June proclaims in a voice-over that she is not done with Gilead yet. She looks menacingly at something off-camera. We cannot wait for Season 5.

69th Emmy Awards: The complete list of winners

Television&#39;s glittering Emmys placed politics front and centre on Sunday, lavishing &quot;The Handmaid&#39;s Tale&quot; with awards for its bleak portrait of an authoritarian America.

The glitzy ceremony in downtown Los Angeles -- the first under the administration of President Donald Trump -- was widely expected to have a strongly political flavor, and host Stephen Colbert set the tone in his opening monologue.

&quot;However you feel about the president, and you do feel about the president, you can&#39;t deny that every show was influenced by Donald Trump in some way,&quot; he said.

&quot;All the late night shows, obviously, &#39;House of Cards,&#39; the new season of &#39;American Horror Story.&#39;&quot;

Hulu&#39;s &quot;The Handmaid&#39;s Tale&quot; and HBO miniseries &quot;Big Little Lies&quot; were the big winners, with five statuettes each.

&quot;Big Little Lies&quot; cast members Nicole Kidman, Laura Dern and Alexander Skarsgard all took home Emmys, along with director Jean-Marc Vallee. It also won outstanding limited series.

&quot;The Handmaid&#39;s Tale,&quot; Hulu&#39;s acclaimed series based on the 1985 novel by Canadian author Margaret Atwood, won awards for writing and directing as well as the biggest prize of the night -- outstanding drama series.

Ann Dowd, picking up her first Emmy at age 61 for her portrayal of brutal instructor Aunt Lydia, spoke of how her award was &quot;a dream&quot; while outstanding lead actress Elisabeth Moss turned the air blue with an expletive strewn acceptance speech.

Hulu will have the most to celebrate as the post-show parties get started, stealing a march on rival streaming platform Netflix, which won just four statuettes all evening.

On a night that rewarded ethnic diversity, Sterling K. Brown picked up lead actor in a drama for &quot;This is Us&quot; while Aziz Ansari and Lena Waithe, Riz Ahmed and Donald Glover also made it to the podium.

But politics was always going to be the story of the awards from the moment John Lithgow picked up the first one: best supporting actor in a drama for his acclaimed turn as Winston Churchill in Netflix&#39;s British royal drama &quot;The Crown.&quot;

&quot;In these crazy times his life even as an old man reminds us what leadership and courage in government really looks like,&quot; the US actor said.

NBC&#39;s long-running comedy sketch show &quot;Saturday Night Live&quot; went into Emmys week with 22 nominations -- the joint-highest total alongside &quot;Westworld&quot; -- after a year of mercilessly spoofing the new commander-in-chief.

Its haul of five Creative Arts statuettes included outstanding guest actress in a comedy series for Melissa McCarthy, whose &quot;Unhinged Spicey&quot; take on Sean Spicer came to embody early criticism of the administration.

The former White House press secretary, whose full-throated defense of Trump earned him derision on television, delighted his former tormentors in a surprise appearance at the opening of the show.

&#39;Greatest honour&#39; 
SNL took four statuettes, with Kate McKinnon tearfully accepting the award for best supporting actress in a comedy series for her portrayal of Hillary Clinton.

She told reporters backstage that the role had been &quot;the greatest honor of my life&quot; and talked of the &quot;special kind of electricity&quot; on set every week.

Alec Baldwin was tapped as best supporting actor in a comedy for his Trump impersonation.

&quot;I suppose I should say at long last, Mr President, here is your Emmy,&quot; he joked, in a dig at Trump&#39;s oft-stated annoyance at never having won a statuette for NBC reality show &quot;The Apprentice&quot; or its celebrity spin-off.

The show also picked up the award for best variety sketch show and outstanding directing.&nbsp;

Elsewhere in the comedy stakes, the 33-year-old Glover took home a brace of statuettes for directing and starring in the FX comedy series &quot;Atlanta.&quot;

The award caps a huge year for Glover, who already has two Golden Globes for the show, focused on the Georgia capital&#39;s rap scene.

Glover got a loud cheer when he took to the stage and thanked Trump for &quot;making black people number one on the most oppressed list.&quot;

British funnyman Charlie Brooker also picked up two Emmys for writing and producing &quot;San Junipero,&quot; a feature-length episode of the dark comedy series &quot;Black Mirror.&quot;

Julia Louis-Dreyfus, in one of the least surprising announcements of the night, won her sixth consecutive Emmy for playing hapless ex-president Selena Meyer in HBO&#39;s &quot;Veep,&quot; which also won best comedy series.

Wide open field 
The network&#39;s fantasy epic &quot;Game of Thrones&quot; has a record 38 awards, but was ineligible for the 69th Primetime Emmys, having started its seventh season too late.

That left the field open for several much talked-about first-timers, including HBO sci-fi Western show &quot;Westworld,&quot; and Netflix&#39;s 1980s-set horror series &quot;Stranger Things.&quot;

Neither was able to add to their five Creative Arts Emmys, however.&nbsp;

Perennial favorite HBO led the networks with 10 Emmys. Next were NBC (six), Hulu (five), Netflix (four) and FX (two).
