CHICAGO – Patrick McDonald of HollywoodChicago.com audio streaming review for Season 5 of “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel,” the popular episodic TV series telling the story of Midge Maisel, a woman stand-up comedian trying to make it in the patriarchal 1960s. First three episodes streaming on Prime Video, since April 14th.

Television Rating: 5.0/5.0

When the series concluded its Season Four, Midge is down in the dumps, having decided not to ever be an opening act for anyone, despite the offer to open for singer Tony Bennett. Her father Abe (Tony Shaloub) continues his job as a stage reviewer for the Village Voice newspaper, her mother Rose (Marin Hinkle) is in trouble with a rival matchmaker collective. Midge’s agent Susie (Alex Borstein) is gathering more acts in her management and her ex-husband Joel (Michael Zegen) is about to get remarried. And as always, it’s Mrs. Maisel in the spotlight.
