New Show Introduction: The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel

Posted in New Shows, Recommendations, Reminder, Television, Video on November 25, 2017| Leave a Comment »

The new Amazon streaming series The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel will debut online on November 29.

Miriam “Midge” Maisel (Rachel Brosnahan from Manhattan) is a Jewish housewife living in New York City in 1958. Her husband, Joel (Michael Zegen), is a successful businessman who moonlights as a struggling comedian. Midge supports Joel, providing feedback about his sets, but becomes disillusioned when she discovers that Joel has stolen one of his best routines from Bob Newhart. One night, after a particularly rough performance, Joel confesses to Midge that he has been having an affair and leaves her. Midge goes to her family for support but primarily receives criticism for choosing to marry Joel. After getting drunk, Midge returns to the comedy club where Joel performs and impulsively goes on stage, delivering an impromptu set about her predicament which the audience finds hilarious. After baring her breasts in an attempt to demonstrate how attractive she is, Midge is arrested and taken to jail on a morals charge. The next morning, she meets Lenny Bruce (Luke Kirby), who is also being bailed out of jail. Bruce warns Midge that the comedy business is terrible, but Midge takes his warning as encouragement and teams with Susie (Alex Borstein), a comedy club employee, to hone her act.

The cast also includes Tony Shalhoub and Marin Hinkle.

Here is a trailer for The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel:

Movie of the Week Reminder: Angry Angel

Posted in Movies, Reminder, Television, Video on November 23, 2017| Leave a Comment »

On November 27, the new Freeform holiday film Angry Angel will debut at 9 PM.

Set in New York City, the film follows a young woman-turned-angel, Allison Pyke (Brenda Song from Pure Genius), who is stuck on Earth and can’t seem to ring the right bells in order to pass through those pearly gates into heaven.

When the love of her life, Patrick (Ricky Mabe from Preacher), shows up in New York City, it complicates Pyke’s journey as well as frustrates her angel mentor (Jason Biggs from Orange Is the New Black). The not-so-merry situation also turns into an unexpected love triangle with her friend with sometimes benefits, Barker (Andy Favreau from Aquarius).

Here is a trailer for Angry Angel:

The film stars Ashley Newbrough (Privileged) and Jesse Hutch (Cedar Cove).
