LOVE this show. I’ll definitely rewatch season one before the new season comes out. Her pink coat in early episodes is gorgeous.

I watched the first episode. Everything is just as good and it takes an offbeat turn to start the season when Midge and her dad have to chase her runaway mom all the way to Paris. Also Susie gets taken for a ride to get whacked by a couple of thugs.

Whoops! I guess I’d better not come here again until I’ve watched. 😃

Has everyone finished watching Season 2 yet? I don't want to spoil anything.
I will say it was just as fun, entertaining, and witty. The ending through me but was happy we got 10 episodes. Only another year till season 3! It was good enough to hold me over.

Only another year till season 3! It was good enough to hold me over. I'm holding off on binge watching the new season and have only watched the first episode so far. This way I can stretch it out and watch whenever the mood strikes me. Many shows are on a winter hiatus until mid-January or so but I've been watching Hallmark and Lifetime Christmas movies instead. After the holidays I'll finish up with the show.

Finally Finished tonight wasn't able to watch on release due to my house move. For me the 1st few episodes were slow going and didn't have the shine of the 1st season. But the show hit it's stride when they went to the camp. The Tail end of the season was so great. I can't wait to see what happens next season the show keeps you on your toes. Have to say I hope we get to see like an aged midge at the end of the series recounting her tales in comedic form to her grandkids or something.

I am half-way into the 2nd season now.. the Catskills time frame. I am happy to see that they brought in the Borscht Belt, I hope that they tie that in to her comedy in some form. I must admit, I had a bunch of Dirty Dancing memories watching it. So far there has only been one part that had me thinking oh gawd.. and that was the wedding scene. I was like ohh Midge, just stop!!! She made a great point in that she lost her social cue awareness.

In fact, I just love the whole show. I was disappointed I couldn't watch more. It's been renewed for Season 3. When will that start & will the whole season be available at once or will it be like Network TV with 1 episode available each week? I'm not sure how these Amazon Prime or Netflix TV shows work.

Amazon and Netflix both usually release an entire season at once. Hulu I believe releases a lot of programs week by week ... which may be one of the reasons I don't subscribe to Hulu! No idea what the production schedule is for this show, but I would guess it would be around the same time next year that they release season 3.

I finally finished season 2 Friday. I loved it. I hate now I need to wait so long for season 3, damn you binge watching!!! The Catskills was the best, truly. Missing Susie and the rally to find her, OMG I was dying! I may have to rewatch both seasons again right before the next, and I never really rewatch anything seriously. Background noise of reruns but I rarely sit and watch, this show is just that good. On a side note, I just realized that Rachel was Kate Spade's (  ) Niece. I loved Kate.. and all the outfits and hats and shoes and handbags.. always gave me a Spade Vibe. The wardrobe is spectacular in this show.

Opps I posted this on the NETFLIX thread. It belongs here on Amazon Prime.
Post by momrek06 on Jan 20, 2019 at 4:46pmOMG.......I am so behind in my NETFLIX viewing so while holding my new baby doll, we all binged the TWO SEASON of MRS. MAISAL!!!!! LOVED EVERY SINGLE MINUTE OF IT and LOVE Rachel so much!!!!!! Great cast and great s/l!!!!! One question why does SUZIE wear a KEY around her neck? Loved her as the "fake" plumber........hysterical. Oh and now so many changes. Joel pissed me off on what he did to Midge and I was glad for Benjamin in Midge's life ..... but but but the finale???? Suzie is not going to tell Midge about Sophie????

Did anyone watch? I think I am going to wait until January and then binge watch. It's just too busy this time of year and I really want to enjoy it. Excited for Sterling K. Brown and Lauren Graham as cast additions.

I binged all 8 episodes over the weekend.
I didn't know about Sterling K. Brown being cast, so it was a real surprise to see him onscreen. And it's not just a one-show guest shot, he sticks around.
The show looks as gorgeous as ever, with lots of unexpected eye-popping sets and locations -- it must cost a fortune to produce. And I like how each season goes off on its own path with the characters -- this one is no exception. I kind of saw the final cliffhanger coming, but overall it was excellent and full of surprises.
Jane Lynch's story and performance is nothing short of amazing. And Alex Borstein will win another Emmy for sure, because her work this season is even more amazing and unexpected than ever.

Is this a show that gets better as it goes on? I ask because I started watching the first episode recently and couldn't get interested so I didn't even finish the episode. If it takes a while to get going, I might give it another shot. If you either get it or you don't and I didn't get it from the first episode, maybe it's just not the series for me.

Really loved this season. Was pleasantly surprised to see Paris from Gilmore Girls/Bonnie from How To Get Away with Murder in her role.
I just find the writing, directing, acting phenomenal.
As for getting into it...it took me a couple of episodes.

Loved all of Midge's clothes! The sets are stunning; I loved seeing Forrest Hills depicted here. Rose and Abe had me in stitches for this season. The ending was a surprise to me; I had thought they were leading up to something really dark like Shy's plane crashes or someone shoots him; there was such a big deal made about Miriam NOT being late to the plane I had thought maybe she misses the plane and is left behind and it crashes or something. Glad it wasn't that but still a surprise / not something I had guessed. It will be interesting to see what is going to happen now. I really enjoyed this season. Was Lauren Graham on???????

I haven't seen season 3 yet so I can't answer that question. However, I did go back upthread and am re-posting the link that said she will be on season 3 in some capacity. It seemed as if Lauren really wanted to be a part of the show. Perhaps it just didn't work out. www.purewow.com/news/lauren-graham-marvelous-mrs-maisel-season-3?utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook&utm_campaign=organic&utm_content=gist&utm_term=fastpub&fbclid=IwAR3fge9xiRxSCY0IFRweL9znnCcx9E8PssJicSY4KQQ4bykL76kmcTHWk1g

I don't remember seeing her in any of the episodes, and there's no listing for it on her IMDb page.
Maybe she got pushed to season 4?

She was not on, there wasn't a spot for the character she wanted:
So maybe season 4??
