The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel
It’s 1958 Manhattan and Miriam 'Midge' Maisel has everything she’s ever wanted—the perfect husband, kids and Upper West Side apartment. But when her life suddenly takes a turn and Midge must start over, she discovers a previously unknown talent—one that will take her all the way from the comedy clubs of Greenwich Village to a spot on Johnny Carson’s couch.
If you’re looking for a refreshing blend of comedy and drama, look no further than HBO Max’s critically acclaimed series, "Hacks". Premiering in May 2021, this unique show has quickly become a fan favorite, thanks to its sharp writing, stellar performances, and its portrayal of the evolving relationship between two women from vastly different backgrounds in the entertainment industry. Created by Paul W. Downs, Jen Statsky, and Lucia Aniello, "Hacks" stars Jean Smart as Deborah Vance—a seasoned Las Vegas comedian—and Hannah Einbinder as Ava Daniels—an ambitious but struggling writer. Together, they create a captivating narrative that highlights both the humor and poignancy found in their unlikely partnership.
At its core, "Hacks" takes us on an intimate journey alongside Deborah and Ava as they navigate personal challenges while trying to revitalize Deborah's fading career at the Palmetto Casino. The first season sets up this dynamic beautifully; viewers witness how these two women initially clash due to their contrasting personalities—as Deborah is a legendary comedian accustomed to success while Ava is an entitled newcomer still licking her wounds from a PR disaster. Episode after episode reveals layers of complexity and depth within each character as they gradually learn from one another. This compelling character development makes every moment engaging and relatable.
One standout aspect of "Hacks" is undoubtedly Jean Smart's portrayal of Deborah Vance. With her rich history in television—from roles in shows like "Fargo" and "Watchmen"—Smart delivers an award-winning performance that showcases Deborah’s wit while also revealing her vulnerabilities. Her chemistry with Hannah Einbinder is palpable; together they bring out each other's strengths in ways that are both humorous and touching. Audiences can’t help but root for them as they work through their differences to forge a strong bond amidst the chaos of their careers.
