About The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel: In 1958 New York, Midge Maisel’s life is on track- husband, kids, and elegant Yom Kippur dinners in their Upper West Side apartment. But when her life takes a surprise turn, she has to quickly decide what else she’s good at - and going from housewife to stand-up comic is a wild choice to everyone but her. The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel is written and directed by Amy Sherman-Palladino (Gilmore Girls).
About 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.

I honestly like how their relationship has developed. Joel clearly has a type, strong willed women who aren't afraid to speak their minds and strive for them to have the life they want. I really love Mei and I think she's good for Joel and I hope the series does them justice in the last season

Ever since seeing how remarkable Stephanie Hsu was in Everything Everywhere All at Once, she's one of my new favourite actors and I can't wait to see what future roles she takes. She brings so much charm, charisma, and strength to the characters she plays.
Sure, Mei was an intriguing character, but I'll admit that when she was introduced I didn't think her relationship with Joel would last. At the time, before they had Lenny and Midge get together, I thought the show was building up to Midge and Joel getting back together with a better understanding of each other (which I wouldn't have really minded, but obviously Lenny is so much better for her). Honestly, when Moishe has a heart attack at the end of the fourth season, and Joel says at the hospital that Mei isn't there yet because she's taking her exams, I thought it would turn out that that was a lie and that she'd actually left him or maybe even gone to get an abortion. But then she came back and genuinely bonded with his family, and I'm actually really looking forward to seeing where the last season will take this couple! I've really come to appreciate Joel's development as a character and it was so touching how Moishe accepted her at the end. Even today there are unfortunately plenty of Jewish families who would struggle with their children marrying outside the faith.

I think since Mei chose becoming a doctor over having Joel’s baby, he’ll either find out about it in S5 and it ends their relationship or, God forbid, she’ll die while having an illegal, back alley abortion. I just don’t see them making it in the long run. Same with Midge and Lenny (for more obvious reasons). I’m predicting Joel and Midge will reunite again by the series finale. It’s what the writers seem to be leading towards imo.

I can tell you, it's not just the Jewish. I speak by experience.
this show hits really close to home as my sister is Chinese and a doctor, married to a Jewish man from New York (just like Joel). his parents never accepted his relationship with her though as she was Chinese, and my sister and brother-in-law had struggled with that for many years while they were dating. ultimately, they are married now and happy even though my brother-in-law had to cut off almost all communication with his parents due to them not accepting my sister.

@@peacetea1001 I can't speak for everyone but in my experience: we both quite conservative groups of people (not necessarily a good thing, but a similarity nonetheless), both worship the concept of hard work, wealth and sacrifice, both got stuck between the racial/ethnic war between the Whites and Blacks and are derogatorily considered to be "secondary White people" despite also suffering through a lot of hardship and discrimination amidst the oppression olympic; both groups consider doctors and lawyers to be worthwhile professions yet despise being in the room with one. That's just a few things. Not to mention both groups have some of the craziest parents who wouldn't mind haunting your entire life if you ever decide to marry people outside the community.

I started watching this show and it was only when they first introduced Mei that I remembered watching this video months before.
They need their own spin off NOWWWW
And then Season 5 put her on a bus to Chicago in the first ep and we never saw her again. What an absolutely wasted potential storyline. Either the show could no longer afford Stephanie after her rise in fame following EEAAO, or the writers had committed themselves to this "eternally devoted to Midge" storyline for Joel and Mei had no place in it.
I love that the father didn’t faint because she was Chinese or pregnant, he fainted because she wasn’t Jewish xD. And he wants her to convert lol
If Jobu is Mei in this universe, then Maisel is cannon in EEAAO!
