[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The final season was so bad for so many reasons. Can someone help me on some questions?
Why was Mrs Maisel being interviewed on 60 Minutes at a shipyard? Not sure how that fit in.
How could she, or anyone, bounce back so quickly and jauntily from delirium and near frostbite? 
The scene at the kibbutz—what was the point?
Why did Joel go to jail?
Why did the writers turn her father turn into a goofball?
And so forth.

At the end, I wish had I hosted the talk show so that I could have fired Mrs. Maisel myself.

Don't have the time to recap and explain a whole season "and so forth," but if you didn't grasp why Joel went to prison you weren't paying attention. Quite a few important scenes were devoted to setting it up. And it was vitally important to the series as a whole and to Joel as a character. He went to prison to save Midge from a potential lifetime of being financially, professionally and personally in thrall to the mafia; he offered himself in her place. This same storyline is why Midge and Susie had a gigantic and (for a long time) irreparable rift. Strongly suggest you re-watch because you missed an arc that concluded stories from a couple of seasons and profoundly changed Joel's and Susie's lives. [/quote]
