I had the great privilege of working BG on this show several times over the years and I can attest to how truly magical it was. There was just no other show quite like it Every element - from the absolutely brilliant writing and directing from Amy and Daniel to the characters, the costumes the cast and crew. Just absolute magic. The production design was also just unparalleled. Every single scene was jam packed with incredible intricate detail to the period - Napkins - matchbook covers - signs- post cards - business cards Things that will never be seen by anyone but the cast and us BG actors but which completely immerse you into that world. Just state of the art television in every way. And watching Rachel work over these last few years was just incredible. Besides her amazing skill as an actor - As the host said - one of the greatest performances in television history- Her kindness and warmth to everyone - from the crew, to us BG actors - to the fans who watched us - just never changed through the years. Despite all the fame and awards - she remained as kind as ever right up to the end. Amy Palladino created one of the best comedies in Television history these last few years a show that will be remembered for many many years to come!!
Thank you. I wanted to express this somewhere: (I'm a 64 yr old Irish man but 34 years in London) I've caught most all of the great TV shows on free to air television over 5 decades. It was lucky for me that I caught a month's freebee to catch this first season (late) on Prime. It shouldn't have appealed to me. I liked Jewish comedians in the past but things change you. This was on the face of it a girlie show. I like female lead characters, but in crime or Nordic noir series. I've now seen all 5 seasons. The production on Maisel was enormous / huge / astronomical. The budget must have been off the scale. The streets, the cars, the TV studios etc etc all real. The greatest shows work because so many things and come together in an unplanned way. Tony Shalhoub and Kevin Pollack suddenly reached the perfect age, for example. You must feel proud and lucky to find yourself in this. Thank you for your description of Rachel Brosnahan as a person. I think I've heard that before, and it comes across. This is the greatest show of all time. Period. I also found myself admiring and critiquing Midge's and all the ladies attire. Fantastic colours. I'm a straight Catholic boy. What's happened to me? It must be the period depicted as well as the great lady behind them. Visually stunning, but a show so great it will never happen again. I hope most people get to see it. I'm afraid some will skip it not knowing what they are missing. Well done to all involved! 🍻 🍷 👍
We don't know which character(s) you played, but I'll raise my hand and say thanks to you as well as everyone who contributed to this amazing amazing show deserves thanks! Thank you!
When I finished it I immediately went back to the beginning, season 1 episode 1, and started watching it all over again. Not a lot of tv can do that to me these days but this show was truly something special.
The running gag of which character was the "in" for us viewers raises for me one of the greatest aspects of the whole show: different characters around midge are the in for different viewers. Personally I always find myself almost looking at that world through Lenny's eyes, my partner hooked onto Rose & sees the world of the show through that pov. Beautiful truly.
5 beautiful seasons that I will treasure, and re-watch for the next couple of years 😅 Wonderfully talented cast and crew. Amy Sherman and Daniel Palladino are absolute legends 🙌🏼
Apart from the obvious, the thing I love about Amy and Dan is that they always give us the ending we want. They don't try to shock us for the views or whatever. I appreciate that.
What a dream for us to have these talents in our lives for the last 5 seasons. One more episode to go and I’m already pre-mourning the end. Thank you to the creators, cast and crew of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.
Oh I love this crowd giving them all their flowers. Ugh, what a gem of a show! My favorite show ever! There are a lot of great shows out there, but this one will always be close to my heart and it'll be hard for any other show to get closer to it.
I love this show. I’m watching it now for a second time and noticing more nuances. One thing that was not mentioned was that Joel always loved Midge unconditionally and that the reason he did not get back with her was so she can become the talented comic she was. He always helped her and supported her and always considered her his wife. The love they shared even when not together was always evident.
I'm rewatching for a third time around and *still* discovering nuances and details I never noticed in the past. As others have said, the writing, set production, acting was all fantastic. I cannot another show that paid this much attention to the details. That to me really is the brilliance of the show.
Ah it's up😻 I was waiting for this! I loooove the Palladinos❤ Damn talented, fascinating people. Also love how they always find marvelous (lol) talent and keep connected and working with them over the years. Noticed our Michelle from Bunheads in Maisel in the last episode? Still sad Lauren didn't fit in anywhere so far but very much looking forward to seeing these new now beloved faces in the next project❤ Ps: Alex talking about Midge and Suzies relationship...Amy explaining who Dan is to her at the end🥺 You guyyyyys. Who's cutting onions🙈
We've loved every episode we've watched. This season is progressing along great as well. Looking forward to how it ends, but also don't want it to end.
I have loved this show and am loving the last episodes. I didn't know any of the actors before, but they were wonderful and I am hoping they go on to another show as big or bigger than Mrs. Maisel. They deserve it.
Have enjoyed every single season. This cast is stellar. Always hard to say farewell when they feel just like family. Shirley Maisel can be my Mom any day. Btw..Amy IS Suzie!! Oh..soundtrack is phenomanal, too. Lastly..I think I saw Amy's hat on a Looney Toon character. Love it!
Prestige TV no doubt. Excellence and brilliance i all aspects.ived it. And craked in the last episode. What a beauty. Thank you for regali g us with such jewel of television. ❤❤❤🎉🎉
My attempt to settle the "who gets to be the 'in' for the show" Id like to present the theory that its a different character from season to season if we treat an 'in' as a key motivator to watch the season/the plot you were more invested in. For ex, Abe was my in for season 2 as he started to question his purpose and learn to listen and his almost caricature-like representation of a brilliant but curmudgeonly professor acting perhaps foolishly for himself without considering the effect on his family and taking [at first glance] uncharacteristic risks. Post season 1, his was the first supporting character whose arc i became invested in. Season 3 for me would be Joel because you finally see him changing and moving away from his choices that were the catalyst for the events of the pilot. This is the first time I started actually rooting for his success, and I was surprisingly invested in his romance with Mei! Finally season 4 while Shirley was never quite an 'in' character for me, I loved her in season 4 for her hilarious overbearing moments with her grandchildren and sheer excitement for setting Joel up with a nice girl. Hers is a character that while at times annoying, always means well.
So it sounds like Midge is pretty much who Amy sees herself being on the inside! Imagine being able to create a show like this and bring to life your inner fantasy self and craft that persona into a heroine like Midge! But perhaps that happens more than we realize, perhaps in lot of TV, movies and theater.
There is so much of Amy in Susie. They even resemble each other. But neither knows how to pick a flattering hat! (Would have been great to have Marin & Kevin on the panel, as well. Two MORE indelible characters.)
Where was Kevin Pollak!? Really great show, enjoyed every minute, I’m sad it’s over but it was perfect ending in a not so obvious way, spooned fed way. Some will say there was a lot of loose ends, but I say that leaves you the audience, to use your own imagination to fill in the blanks, but the broad strokes were there. If anything I would like to see a spin-off with Susie and her associates, purely because I enjoyed watching her and ladies hustle. Oh and I have started to rewatch the series
Lovely show, lovely cast, lovely audience. Interview was a complete dud tbh. Generic questions, generic answers. Almost nothing that was said hasn't been said by dozens of casts of any given show at these panels before - the show was magic, the writers make the actors better, Midge is brave, Susie and Midge love each other, the 50s put a lot of constraints on people... So broad, so much stating of the obvious. At least the parts about the music supervision were interesting.
I’m only 5 min in and the worst part about this is the host. Like did they not prep her or get rehearsal? Surely there’s smoother questions and transitions to be made.
It was a beautiful show and I adore. The Zionist undertones were disgusting. But beyond that, beautiful in every other way. Susie & Midge with remain with me eternally!!
I love the part when Abe finally vocalized his appreciation of Midge amongst his peers! I felt that!
Fabulous, heartwarming ❤❤❤
I had the great privilege of working BG on this show several times over the years and I can attest to how truly magical it was.
There was just no other show quite like it
Every element -
from the absolutely brilliant writing and directing from Amy and Daniel
to the characters, the costumes the cast and crew.
Just absolute magic.
The production design was also just unparalleled.
Every single scene was jam packed with incredible intricate detail to the period -
Napkins - matchbook covers - signs- post cards - business cards
Things that will never be seen by anyone but the cast and us BG actors but which completely immerse you into that world.
Just state of the art television in every way.
And watching Rachel work over these last few years was just incredible.
Besides her amazing skill as an actor -
As the host said -
one of the greatest performances in television history-
Her kindness and warmth to everyone - from the crew, to us BG actors - to the fans who watched us -
just never changed through the years.
Despite all the fame and awards -
she remained as kind as ever
right up to the end.
Amy Palladino created one of the best comedies in Television history these last few years
a show that will be remembered for many many years to come!!
Thank you.

this was my ultimate comfort show, the acting, the writting, the wardrobe, and of course the laughs, im gonna miss it so much !!
What's not to like?
Certainly one of the best things on television.

,z,zip
Agreed! Love rewatching, this show never gets old no matter how many times I've seen it! 🤍 💯
I cant believe its over. I love them all. ❤️
Apart from the obvious, the thing I love about Amy and Dan is that they always give us the ending we want. They don't try to shock us for the views or whatever. I appreciate that.
The finale was absolutely brilliant!💖
What a dream for us to have these talents in our lives for the last 5 seasons. One more episode to go and I’m already pre-mourning the end. Thank you to the creators, cast and crew of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.
Will miss this show when the final episode airs. All the characters have a lot of growth in short 5 seasons.
Great! I just watched this again! Loved the entire program: insightful, heartwarming, just marvelous ❗
Oh I love this crowd giving them all their flowers. Ugh, what a gem of a show! My favorite show ever! There are a lot of great shows out there, but this one will always be close to my heart and it'll be hard for any other show to get closer to it.
The last song of the series "Girls Talk" was such a delight to hear. I loved Dave Edmunds back in the day and it fit the series perfectly.
One of those rare shows where I became legitimately sad when each episode ended. I already have tissues for the series finale.
This was such a fascinating insightful interview. Thank you. I shall be interested to see what the Sherman-Palladinos write next!
I love this show. I’m watching it now for a second time and noticing more nuances. One thing that was not mentioned was that Joel always loved Midge unconditionally and that the reason he did not get back with her was so she can become the talented comic she was. He always helped her and supported her and always considered her his wife. The love they shared even when not together was always evident.
Yes, he never stopped considering her his wife! But he knew that ultimately she was meant to be more than that and did not want to stand in her way.
I'm rewatching for a third time around and *still* discovering nuances and details I never noticed in the past. As others have said, the writing, set production, acting was all fantastic. I cannot another show that paid this much attention to the details. That to me really is the brilliance of the show.
This was so great~thank you so much to everyone.
Ah it's up😻 I was waiting for this! I loooove the Palladinos❤ Damn talented, fascinating people.

Ps: Alex talking about Midge and Suzies relationship...Amy explaining who Dan is to her at the end🥺 You guyyyyys. Who's cutting onions🙈
Tony is so beloved everywhere and in everything he does!! Rewatched the entire show and love it even more!!! Very gratifying conclusion in a way ❤
We've loved every episode we've watched. This season is progressing along great as well. Looking forward to how it ends, but also don't want it to end.
One of the best shows EVER!
Sometimes the scripts were so rich with great dialogue and plot twists that it was almost jaw-dropping. Mrs Maisel leaves us wanting more. Well done!
What a beautiful cast and spectacular show!!! I always thought the music was so special and well-timed! The intention is top tier ✨✨
I have loved this show and am loving the last episodes. I didn't know any of the actors before, but they were wonderful and I am hoping they go on to another show as big or bigger than Mrs. Maisel. They deserve it.
This was a phenomenal panel, the interviewer really asked amazing questions, im beyond impressed
wow, my life is changed by sitting here and taking in all the wisdom and laughter shared. thank you!!
writing, acting everything, so well done. never a dull moment. re watched it many times. sad it’s ending. it will be remembered for its greatness✌️
First of all cinematography. visuals, design just perfection. So underrated.
Exactly what Tony said: "Rarified air." I love when Creators/EPs hold a creative standard and refuse to compromise.
Love this show. Love all the brilliant anologies Alex made.❤
I binged this series in a week.
I re-watched the whole series too! Very enjoyable.
head over hills obsessed with this show. what a finale episode!!
Yes. The final is epic. Absolutely perfect. I was surprised it didn't end on the couch scene frankly, but wonderful none the less.
Have enjoyed every single season.
This cast is stellar.
Always hard to say farewell when they feel just like family.
Shirley Maisel can be my Mom any day.
Btw..Amy IS Suzie!!
Oh..soundtrack is phenomanal, too.
Lastly..I think I saw Amy's hat on a Looney Toon character. Love it!
Highlight of my life...being an extra on MMM !! 🤩
Could only imagine 😊
I love love this show the characters the authentic wardrobe from that area. Hysterical funny! Will be missed.
Prestige TV no doubt. Excellence and brilliance i all aspects.ived it. And craked in the last episode. What a beauty. Thank you for regali g us with such jewel of television. ❤❤❤🎉🎉
The clothes!! I even bought the sunglasses from the Catskills and season3
3:03 that´s what I love about Midge and every episode leaves in the viewer that bravery too
Where was Marin Hinkle?
What i love is the authenticity of the show. Especially Lenny Bruce and Carol Kay as characters.
Alex and Amy look like sisters! Anyway, I really loved this show! The best TV I’ve seen in years! It’s sad that it’s over now 😞
Omg it's Adrian Monk in flesh!!!
Daniel is wearing a Pink Floyd Animals jacket!
the first thing I noticed, so cool!
$1,200?!!
Loving the final season so far!
Yes! I was waiting for this.
Definition of a Zeitgeist.
When i cued the final show, the banner came up "Press to play the finale episode" I stopped and took a big breath, it was very sad.
My attempt to settle the "who gets to be the 'in' for the show" Id like to present the theory that its a different character from season to season if we treat an 'in' as a key motivator to watch the season/the plot you were more invested in. For ex, Abe was my in for season 2 as he started to question his purpose and learn to listen and his almost caricature-like representation of a brilliant but curmudgeonly professor acting perhaps foolishly for himself without considering the effect on his family and taking [at first glance] uncharacteristic risks.

But perhaps that happens more than we realize, perhaps in lot of TV, movies and theater.
Alex and Amy look like sisters … they are very similar in character too
♥️🎥👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😍
There is so much of Amy in Susie. They even resemble each other.
But neither knows how to pick a flattering hat!
(Would have been great to have Marin & Kevin on the panel, as well. Two MORE indelible characters.)
53:09 -I found this interesting considering the Carol Burnett episode.
Where was Kevin Pollak!?
Really great show, enjoyed every minute, I’m sad it’s over but it was perfect ending in a not so obvious way, spooned fed way. Some will say there was a lot of loose ends, but I say that leaves you the audience, to use your own imagination to fill in the blanks, but the broad strokes were there.
If anything I would like to see a spin-off with Susie and her associates, purely because I enjoyed watching her and ladies hustle.
Oh and I have started to rewatch the series
Note that Daniel Palladino is wearing a Pink Floyd 'Animals' jacket.
Mary Pat Lee!
She must have picked that hat out of a dumpster before the show, wtf. Love the show.
Final season should have crazy development in the next five episodes or the last four seasons were for nothing
The armadillo analogy was apposite
Lovely show, lovely cast, lovely audience.
Interview was a complete dud tbh. Generic questions, generic answers. Almost nothing that was said hasn't been said by dozens of casts of any given show at these panels before - the show was magic, the writers make the actors better, Midge is brave, Susie and Midge love each other, the 50s put a lot of constraints on people...

I’m only 5 min in and the worst part about this is the host. Like did they not prep her or get rehearsal? Surely there’s smoother questions and transitions to be made.
Where's Lenny ?? WTF
It was a beautiful show and I adore.
The Zionist undertones were disgusting.
But beyond that, beautiful in every other way. Susie & Midge with remain with me eternally!!
Did she just say that one of the secrets to their success was "cocaine"??
What’s with the hat?
that hat she always wears is absurd. At a certain point, fashion becomes costume.
final season was a bust
Don't agree.
It’s not over yet. We have 4 episodes and so far aside from the flash forwards it’s been very enjoyable
I'll admit not a great as the other seasons! I have watched the1-4 over and over
I love the BAltman , catskills!
the new season is terrible
You don’t understand this show
Why do u have to curse so much,
