The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel Release Date and Where To Watch It
“The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel” comes back around for its fourth season early in 2022, with two episodes dropping every week starting on February 18, 2022. The streaming service continues to take a different approach from competitor Netflix, which drops entire seasons at once for maximum binge-watching efficiency; instead, Prime Video originals release one or two episodes at a time with the aim of hooking viewers to return week after week. Last season, Nielsen reported that the show’s viewership is up by 60% from season 2; an average of 3.2 million viewers tuned in to the first batch of season 3 episodes within the first week of their release. On average, “Maisel’s” third season had over 600,000 viewers engaged on each premiere date, and the hype has folks ready to tune in again for season 4.

What Is The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel About?
“The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel” is set in late 1950s/early 1960s New York, and it stars Rachel Brosnahan as housewife Miriam “Midge” Maisel, an upper class Jewish American woman who learns that she can tell a joke pretty well, and pursues a career in stand-up comedy with the help of manager Susie (Borstein). Weathering the jealousies of mediocre men and the pitfalls of the show business industry, Midge spends the first few seasons finding herself and committing to a stand-up career, despite a lack of support from many in her life.
Season 3 saw Midge embarking on a USO tour with singer Shy Baldwin (Leroy McClain), whom she uses for material in her act, nearly outing the closeted gay artist. This results in the series cliffhanger that left Midge at the airport after Shy dropped her from the tour. Meanwhile, manager Susie has squandered much of the stand-up money on sports betting, and decides to pull an insurance scam to make things square again, setting her late mother’s house aflame. There are a lot of loose ends to tidy up, including those of Midge’s ex-husband Joel (Michael Zegen), whose new flame Mei (Stephenie Hsu) may or may not be pulling him into a racketeering scheme. Here is the synopsis for season 4:
It’s 1960 and change is in the air. Looking to hone her act, Midge finds a gig with total creative freedom. But her commitment to her craft – and the places it takes her – creates a rift between her and the family and friends around her.
