The curtains are closing on The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.

Amazon Prime Video's hilarious and heartwarming period comedy-drama series follows Miriam "Midge" Maisel (played by Rachel Brosnahan), a New York City housewife who decides to pursue stand-up comedy after her husband, played by Michael Zegen, has an affair.

The show, which premiered in 2017, comes from Gilmore Girls creators Amy Sherman-Palladino and Daniel Palladino and is similarly beloved for its quirky characters and quippy dialogue. Maisel has also featured former Gilmore Girls cast members like Alex Borstein, Jane Lynch and Kelly Bishop.

In 2022, the streaming service announced that Bishop would return as a series regular in season 5, alongside fellow season 4 guest stars Alfie Fuller and Jason Ralph. Main cast members Tony Shalhoub, Borstein, Marin Hinkle, Zegen, Kevin Pollak and Caroline Aaron will also reprise their roles.

Over four seasons, Maisel fans have watched as the lovable and strong-willed Midge has faced ups and downs in both her comedy career and personal life. After losing her comedy tour gig in season 3 and starting work as a strip club emcee in season 4, she's finally getting back to stand-up comedy in season 5.

According to a teaser released in March 2023, Midge is "closer than ever to the success she's dreamed of, only to discover that closer than ever is still so far away."

The show's fifth and final season premieres on Prime Video on April 14. Three new episodes will be released on premiere day, with the rest of the episodes dropping weekly.

During a Maisel cast panel in 2022, the actress revealed that she spent the first couple of years of her career being told she was "not funny" and that she was "eternally indebted" to series executive producers Amy Sherman-Palladino and Daniel Palladino "for saying yes and taking that kind of chance on someone" like herself.

I've done so many cool shows but I've only been a guest star or a recurring character — I never knew if I was going to be in the next episode, let alone season 2."
