I sort of liked the pilot for the Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, but the series (which just released on Amazon) is even better. It is a bit contrived, but the casting is excellent (especially the dueling patriarchs Tony Shalhoub and Kevin Pollak), and Rachel Brosnahan holds it all together. I am a sucker for period shows set in 50s New York.
The last night of Hanukkah, I have to go with the Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.
Update: After watching all of Season 1, I can say that I would be shocked if Rachel Brosnahan does not become a bit star. She is very good. But the music, production quality, and costars are all top notch.
