I haven't posted in quite a while, and as I've gone through all of the drafts I meant to post about TV, I haven't posted much at all. But let me just say one of the things I have been most excited about in the last couple years is The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. The end of the second fantastic season left us with a lot of interesting ideas.
Midge is going on an extensive tour of Europe with Shy Baldwin. He is the Johnny Mathis character. So this is a big deal. Suzie is excited but is carrying a big secret.
Susie has agreed to manage Sophie Lennon and she will pull Sophie out of comedy and get her in some dramatic spot on Broadway, eventually making a big splash in Long Days Journey Into Night or some such thing.
Learning that Suzie is managing Sophie will undoubtedly create tension between Midge and Susie.
Joel has been given an unusual sum of money and instead of buying a house, will realize that his real place in comedy isn't the stage, but rather owning a comedy club.
The Doctor fiancé will ultimately get screwed over in this deal because Midge isn't smart enough to realize where her true best interests lie. She has a messed up opinion that Joel is her anchor. This will ultimately be her downfall down the road.
Midge's Parents will assume parental opportunities for Midge's children as Midge tours Europe. Papa will deal with the fact others where he teaches hate him, and he agrees to take an early Sabbatical. Midge's Mama will still be trying to relocate to Paris and they very well might.
Midge will persuade Lenny Bruce to appear in Joel's club a lot, and she will, and between the two of them, they'll make the place a hit. And then Lenny gets unfunny ranting abut his legal struggles on stage, and dies.
These are my guesses, and if I'm remotely in the ballpark, what a season that will be.
