Attention to fans of the series The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel! Their favorite heroine is returning to Amazon Prime Video for a fifth and final season. The series' grand finale is set for May 26, 2023, but we can count on the inimitable Midge Maisel to bow out with panache. Here's what you need to know about this multi-award-winning series in 5 questions.

"What is this series about?"

For new Amazon Prime subscribers who have not yet discovered this gem on Prime Video, the series "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" follows the adventures of a female comedian in 1950s New York.

At the beginning of season 1, Miriam "Midge" Maisel has everything of a model wife and leads a dream life according to the standards of her time: she has a husband, two children, and a beautiful apartment on the Upper West Side.

But her predetermined life takes an unexpected turn when her husband leaves her and she discovers a talent for comedy. She then embarks on a career in stand-up that will change her life.

"What is the cast of this successful series?"

The series The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel is led by actress Rachel Brosnahan, who was revealed on television by the American series House of Cards with Kevin Spacey and Robin Wright.

Alongside this sparkling heroine, we find two American comedians. Alex Borstein plays Susie Myerson, the manager of The Gaslight café who spots Mrs. Maisel's talent and becomes her manager. This role earned her two Emmy Awards for Best Supporting Actress! As for actor and comedian Kevin Pollak, he portrays Moishe, the heroine's ex-father-in-law.

Fans of the series Monk (which ended in 2009) will also recognize Tony Shalhoub in the role of Miriam's father, a rather conservative math professor. The actor returned to success on television thanks to this role and won an Emmy Award in 2019.

3- Why is it essential to discover this series before the finale?

The series The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel launched on Prime Video in 2017 quickly established itself as one of the flagship fictions of Amazon's streaming platform.

This series, created by Amy Sherman-Palladino, also behind the Gilmore Girls series on Netflix, has been showered with awards since its launch. It boasts no less than 3 Golden Globes and 7 Emmy Awards!

This series has been praised by critics for the talent of its performers as much as for the quality of its staging. So, if you haven't seen seasons 1 to 4, don't wait any longer to discover this little gem! The first four seasons are still available on the Prime Video platform.

"What are the strengths of this series?"

As the theme of this fiction suggests, humor is THE strong point of the series The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. To tell the adventures of this mother who enters the world of stand-up, the dialogues are naturally sharp and full of incisive humor.

But the words of this rising stand-up star are not only funny. They are also filled with cultural and political references that immerse us in the New York of the 1950s and 1960s.

Another strong point worth noting is the quality of the sets and costumes: enough to transport viewers to a delightfully vintage, refreshing, and colorful universe!

5- What is the value of season 5?

In the fifth and final season of the series The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, longtime fans will find all the ingredients that made their favorite fiction a success: a colorful universe, a fast-paced narration, heroes who do as they please, rapid-fire dialogues, and humor that is just as sharp.

This season 5 will have 9 episodes until the grand finale scheduled for May 26, 2023. Since the beginning of the series, you have probably wondered if, despite her talent, the heroine will succeed in breaking into the very male-dominated world of stand-up comedy.

In this last season, you will finally have the answer because Amy Sherman-Palladino enjoys jumping into the future... But I won't say more and I'll let you discover for yourself the final performance of this character who is sure to be missed.
