(with Poll) I've got time to marathon one of them over the next couple of days. I loved the first season of Mrs. Maisel, but heard the second is disappointing. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks.
Russian Doll, Fleabag or Mrs. Maisel (second season).

I thought the second season of Maisel was equally as good as the first. If not better

I also read that the 2nd season of Mrs M was disappointing. I still enjoyed it and it is worth watching.

Mrs Maisel season 2 is great. The thing is it is off putting the way the lead accentuates her voice. That's what is annoying. But it's still a delightful and beautiful show.

Mrs M. has a few gratuitous shots of Gerard Nolan Funk shirtless if that’s any help OP.

Fleabag season 2 is heartbreaking art. Maisel is brilliant as well.

Mrs M. starts weak, but gets better.

I loved MM Season 2. It's not as surprising as Season 1, but it's beautifully done. The first two episodes with the Paris storyline and not great (they make nonsense), but after that it gets fine. And seeing Suzie masquerade as a plumber in a Jewish resort in the Katskills simply by carrying around a plumber's helper it pretty hilarious (especially because of the plot twist that occurs because of it). Also, Midge's love interest in the gorgeous and intensely likeable Zachary Levi this season.
There's also more of Jane Lynch as the Sophie Tucker/Phyllis Diller character.

Sorry, that got mangled because of Autocorrect. I wasn't paying enough attention.
That should read instead, "The first two episodes with the Paris storyline are not great (they make no sense),"

I agree, loved the Catskills episodes and Suzie pretending to be staff. The fur coat. The late-night "blue" gig. More Lenny Bruce. The telethon. The problem with the guy who was her new love interest was that he was too perfect. The set up was funny though.

I loved the Paris episodes as well!

The Paris episodes were the weakest part of the season.

Maisel was worth watching just for the clothes. She became really annoying after a while, but her clothes were great. Oh, and I LOVED her foul-mouthed manager, who had all the best lines. Russian Doll gave me a headache, although I thought the concept was great and love the lead actress. It just moved too quickly for me and I gave up. Maybe I was just smoking too much weed.

I love Natasha Lyonne, and I was so happy to see her make a career comeback. But I just did not enjoy "Russian Doll" overall--it also gave me a headache.

Suzie of MMM is just the funniest character out there.

Rachel Brosnahan, Natasha Lyonne, and Pheobe Waller-Bridge are all nominated for Emmys. Which one should win?

OP here... I took the advice of the panel and watched Fleabag. I made the right choice!!
by Anonymous | reply 18 | August 19, 2019 6:24 PM |
Definitely the right choice. Though I can't believe Fiona Shaw got nominated for an Emmy for basically moisturizing her forearms on that show.

R17, she was, in my opinion, the ONLY good thing about that show. Jesus god, I hated it.

This time is should be Phoebe Waller-Bridge. She not only stars in the show, but she wrote it as well.

Maisel is unwatchable trash. Remotely no comparison to Fleabag which is genius.
