Rachel Brosnahan Re-Watches 'The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel' Pilot | 'I Thought My Career Was Over'

[@gptiede]

I wasn't aware how much of an accent and "voice" Rachel is performing when she plays Midge. And all the mannerisms -- she is an amazing actress.

[@cozIsaidso]

Exactly. Made me love her more. Her voice and her mannerisms are nothing like Midge's.

[@itsmj3103]

She watched the pilot and said "Who's gonna watch this"?! Girlie did we watch the same pilot, it was so great, I was instantly hooked lol She's really talented tho, the fact that she seems so different than Midge when most actors look like they're playing themselves says a lot about her talent.

[@velvetnoir3165]

This is exactly what I was thinking!!!!!

[@mrs_mothra547]

The unedited footage would be very cringe and hard to watch

[@tanyam5471]

Rachel's voice is so different from Midge's.

[@tiddies1]

Right she talks so much slower

[@mark-angelofamularcano237]

I think her having a higher register works well for her that she is a comic in the show. Definitely works with the rhythm she with on stage

[@CarlObermeier]

Her voice is so different, yet you can still see hints of Midge as she talks.

[@peterboil4064]

no it's the same voice

[@LXSeaV]

I love how different this is from all the other interviews. I'm binging all of them right now because I can't say goodbye to this show 😭

[@smalls9852]

I just recently had a chance to meet her and she is truly a caring, wonderful person. And this show has been so, lol well marvelous, I will be sad to see it go, but also thankful it was picked up in the first place.

[@basilfawlty8244]

"It turned out OK"... Probably one of the biggest understatements of all time.

[@ismisekatie]

Her reaction to watching herself is exactly how mine would be 😂

[@JPEaglesandKatz]

Stunningly beautiful, AAA+ talent and a genuine person who I think is actually a great person even outside the spotlights... And what a show... one of the best in the last 20 years.

[@cessiahc]

This was a marvellous show. So, so, so good. Loved, loved Midge, her parents, Joel & Susie. I mean the entire cast was great. Everyone just fit so well. Well done. Wow. Unforgettable. My all time favourite show. It would be amazing to have a movie done years later to marvel us once again. Start shooting now 😉

[@AGLadyBird]

She seems so nice ❤️ She's so beautiful and talented and definitely perfect for this role, I can't imagine another actress as Midge. What a great show!

[@StevenTorrey]

In the end, it is marvelous television! The ensemble cast really works great together. The girl who plays Suzie/Alexandrea Borstein--her agent-- is truly great, and a delight.

[@tommclain8893]

Love this show, don’t want it to end. Writing is phenomenal, cast makes it genius give and take.

[@feelingReckless13]

She's so funny and personable and such a talented actor that I feel bad for being so distracted by how good she looks in red...

[@mrs_mothra547]

Her calling Michael a poor young man when he's older than her is so sweet 😂

[@nysavvy9241]

Thats what Ive missed in the last 2 seasons. The interaction between Midge and Joel

[@zerolowerbound5855]

She is such a talent. She goes topless in the pilot. She is absolutely perfect.

[@cillid23]

Maybe the greatest show in the history of television

[@kellyharper8072]

I think she is lovely. Loved this series. ❤️

[@fahtaynew]

she is so adorableeeeeeeee such a softie i love her omg

[@naomibui7880]

so sad the show is over :(

[@robertcarolinar]

Ok, now I love her more.

[@northernreflections4653]

I love her laugh! ❤

[@stevesmith8484]

I hate to say this but this show better have a happy ending. I really love season one, got heavily invested in Midge as a character and wanted her to succeed. Half of season 2 was good but the story plunged off a cliff from there with silly nonsense and bad writing along with drawn out plots that went nowhere or you could see the end of a mile away. With four episodes to go I really want Midge to get her MOJO back and fly. Seriously, I know it's all made up, but Rachel's acting is so good you just want better for her character than wants on offer. Again, I have never been so heavily invested in a TV show and that's my fault I know, but if I want sad I'll read a newspaper or watch the news on TV. Go Miriam 'Midge' Maisel.

[@tatehildyard5332]

I mean the flash forwards in season 4 imply that she's done pretty well for herself.

[@stevesmith8484]

@@tatehildyard5332 Ya I don't know, she's estranged from her kids, Susie's no longer manages her and they don't talk. There's implications she's coasting in her career, hawking wigs while doing the same old bits because she's lost her edge and gone with safe stuff. I don't disagee with done well for herself, Emmy's and Grammy's, but you can tell she misses Susie and that push to always be better or as they both say in the series, tits up.

[@tatehildyard5332]

@@stevesmith8484 Based on the ending of the last episode, I’m guessing they’re going to make up in the final episode. Yeah it’s a little bit of a bummer seeing everyone else get shorted on good endings, but I also kind of appreciate the nuances of that we don’t normally see in entertainer rags to riches story. Usually they just focus on one particularly patchy part of the person’s life but once they get past that, the redemption arc is complete and it basically says everything else after that was fine. Showbiz has a way of grinding even accomplished people down, just in different ways. And considering the main template for Midge is Joan Rivers, it could have wound up a way bigger bummer.

[@stevesmith8484]

@@tatehildyard5332 I am saving watching until the final drop, then watch all three. In the interim I've watching Good Omens.

[@tatehildyard5332]

@@stevesmith8484 Oh. My apologies for spoiling it then. A good chunk of that episode I mentioned was basically just a Susie epilogue and a lot more happens for her in it too.

[@brucek1102]

Both sets of in-law parents have become so obnoxious and unsympathetic, the writers have pushed them way too far into idiocy.

[@amystrickland7162]

I think Abe gets a lot of redemption end of the final season

[@robertcarr4172]

That was a ... revealing episode :)

[@viniciusrocha749]

Her Voice is different out of character

[@StreetlightsFactory]

good

[@emptyinsidedavid]

she's just been cast as Lois Lane

[@lenastle8764]

Rachel is a prettier Margot Kidder…

[@wanderingfeet3053]

Loved that show… but they took way too long between seasons… lost interest

[@feelingReckless13]

you're missing out tbh

[@4rifr0mthe3nd]

​@@feelingReckless13 indeed, but I've been rewatching it lately, since I immediately binged the 5th season when it came out 😂

[@mcl2584]

From season 1 until 3, a season was coming out each year. Season 4 was delayed because of covid. With season 4 and 5 coming out again just a year apart. To me doesnt look too bad.

[@sw9618]

[@joechapman8208]

Annual seasons are pretty much standard, no? There's a ridiculous amount of work on this show, compared to most. All those carefully planned one-shots that go on forever, where they have to reset everything if anybody moves wrong or flubs a line. I don't think people appreciate how much special effects work there is, either - tons of computer graphics and matte work to create the period.

[@babyshark154]

this season is soooooo bad

[@RW-gp1dq]

I love it!

[@gabriellemcintosh9390]

clealry you have no taste whatsoever

[@Gruntled2001]

Disagree. The flashfowards and flashbacks are genius. The only "weak" episode is the one with the garbage company performance, but the rest of them are solidly written and well acted. I think this season is on par with the rest, if not better.

[@RW-gp1dq]

@@Gruntled2001 bingo! you said it!

[@robertcarolinar]

For me it was one of the best seasons. Really happy with how they resolved different situations.
