Esteban C now this is what i’m talking about! season four and midge is braver and bolder than ever before! the feminine empowerment, ambition and the struggles of being a working woman in the sixties was portrayed in the most precise way possible! all the characters, as well as the story are developing beautifully. we’re back fully in new york, in midge’s apartment, and that alone just feels right. the drama, the comedy and the amy sherman-palladino verse cameos (yes, i’m talking about emily gilmore and jess mariano) were on pointe!!! i can’t wait to wee what’s in storage for the farewell season! Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/01/25 Full Review Lisa W Why did the writers feel like quick and well-delivered comedy wasn't enough? Why so much extreme profanity? The first three seasons were brilliant, both in storyline and comedic delivery. The funeral scene was cringe, and again disrespectfully littered with profanity. Barging in was enough. If that were my mother's service and you spoke those words, all hell would have broken loose. Hopefully season 4 will demonstrate TMMM's original brilliance.

Susie Myerson is truly the glue to the whole thing! Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/06/23 Full Review Mike P The charm of the innovative characters and their story are gone - replaced by overblown versions of their former selves taken to wacky extremes. Most early episodes of the season were a chore to try to get through. Keep trying in vain hope that the magic would reappear. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 05/01/23 Full Review Corey W It meanders a bit for the first few episodes, but once it finds its purpose season 4 of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel is just as sharp and glowing as ever. Midge's path to become a household name in comedy has run aground after the Shy Baldwin debacle and the step backwards is a little frustrating. Realistic? Sure, but it's hard to stomach after 3 seasons. It's certainly not enough to quit on her, but it highlights fears that the show could end when Midge gets her big break instead of allowing us to live in it for a while first. The character work is, as always, where the show really shines. Rachel Brosnahan and Alex Borstein have never been better, using each other's talents to propel each actor to another Emmy nomination. The cast surrounding this central relationship is just as good and helps sell the package. Scenes featuring Michael Zegen or Tony Shalhoub are fun for different reasons than Midge and Susie, but the commitment on the part of the actors and the realized characters they're playing ensure that every B-story is as engaging as the main foray. Outside of perhaps HBO's Perry Mason, Maisel continues to be the best looking show on television with its floor-to-ceiling time capsule of the early 1960s in a way that makes one reminisce about Mad Men and the era in general. The writing is still top tier and the snappy deliveries ensure that viewers will be as delighted as ever, even if the season starts in a sort of arrested development. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member After a bit disappointing seasons 2 and 3 they got their footing back in Season 4 with the fabulous ensemble, sets, wardrobe and story lines. Suggest using subtitles for some of the fast dialog. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
