Paolo F @XKP-Producer May 28 Season 2 does something rare: it takes everything that worked in Season 1 and makes it even better. The witty dialogue is sharper, the characters are richer, the comedy hits harder, and the emotional moments land with surprising force. Female emancipation is one of the show's central themes, but it's far from the only one. Ambition, family expectations, relationships, social status, and personal freedom are all explored with intelligence and nuance. Unlike many modern series that treat viewers like they need a PowerPoint presentation, Maisel trusts its audience to keep up. Rachel Brosnahan is fantastic once again, supported by a cast that seems incapable of delivering a bad performance. Every episode is packed with energy, humor, and heart. This season isn't just a worthy follow-up—it outclasses the first. Bigger, funnier, smarter, and more confident, Season 2 proves that The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel wasn't a one-season wonder. It was just getting started. See more Faiz D @RT95588871 05/14/2025 One of the best shows on TV right now. See more Roy V @RT30253098 05/06/2023 Outstandingly fabulous continuation! See more Serena S @RT82316080 04/28/2023 It was a pretty good season but ending kiss with Joel ruined it for me. See more Liz @RT24616969 02/26/2023 A powerful show. Rich in all the levels with layers and complexion of characters, events, and how the show is tied together with all that. See more s w @RT47217781 02/09/2022 I honestly dont know how this is so popular and acclaimed. Maisel is not likeable, she is a huge jerk. Her comedy is rarely funny, it's mostly whiney. It's astounding. Watch the show again and really imagine her as a person in your actual life. And look at the way she talks and the things she says. You'll notice that 95% of it is negative and complaining and her tone is way over the top. If I had her in my face in real life I'd walk away. She would be the kind of friend you feel bad for so you keep hanging out with her but every time you're with her you feel worse than you did before and you're not sure why. She has a toxic personality and someone glamourized it. Further, she seems pretty well off in terms of her life and yet wants more? She specifically says at one point that she wants the money and the fame. Like jesus christ lady, talk about rich and entitled. You are greedy af. And her comedy is mean. She ridicules her friends and family to get laughs. In the real world this is called exploitation and most people don't appreciate it. Yet the tone of the show (the pretty colours, upbeat music, 60s nostalgia) makes the audience ADMIRE her?! I dont care what era you are doing comedy in, it's just bad form regardless. And the show makes it seem like exploitation of your family members is NORMAL in comedy and that she can't be married because of her act (which exploits her husband). Uh, news flash, lots of comedians are married if they tell any stories that involve their partner they are usually harmless. Very rarely do you get someone who actually chews out their spouse on stage (and if they do, you find out years later that they divorced, so there were clearly issues in the marriage). But the idea that Midge must chose her act over her husband is ridiculous and shows she is not a good comedian if she can't come up with jokes that don't ridicule her husband. Honestly, how is no one else seeing this?? And finally, doesn't anyone else find it weird how every time she's at an event she just grabs the attention, whether it's appropriate or not? I'll start with the private function... I mean okay sure, if someone is telling a good story then it makes sense the party people would listen, but if I were an attendee, I'd eventually tire of it. I came to the party to talk to my friends, not listen to standup, like what's this lady doing??? But the fact that she takes the mic at ACTUAL shows and events that she is not even a performer at just blows my mind. Everyone else has to be organized and book a slot, they may have been waiting for weeks to perform but then this rando lady just takes the mic and talks for ten minutes?! And what about actual professionals putting on a show that patrons PAID to see? Well that won't stop Midge from taking over the mic. Like for christs sake, imagine this: you paid to see your favourite drag Queens perform. You bought your tickets months in advance and got dressed up to go. You brought a date and are excited to see the performance. When midway through, some lady from the audience who doesn't even speak your language takes the microphone and starts doing comedy. Wouldn't you be like, "who the hell is this person? I paid to see the Queens, not listen to amateur comedy in a language I can't understand." Like seriously? I'm telling you guys, watch it again and pretend she is someone you know in real life and you are watching a video diary of her. I promise you will hate her and want her to fail lol. If my friend went up on stage for a show she was not supposed to be in, I would be so embarrassed I'd pretend not to know her. See more Read all reviews
