The second season of “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel” will not air until later this year, but the show has already been given the green light for a third season.
“The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel” tells the story of a US Jewish housewife in 1950s New York who becomes a stand-up comedian. It is set in the very Jewish milieu of Manhattan’s Upper West Side and is full of Jewish references.
Variety reported that the show’s creator appealed to Amazon Studios executives on Saturday night while accepting a Peabody Award at the awards show in New York City.
“You’re going to give it to us because we’re bringing home the fancy thing, right?” Amy Sherman-Palladino said.
Amazon then confirmed to Variety on Sunday that the show would get a third season.

We can't do this work alone.
The war with Iran has been draining for all of us in Israel. But when I heard about a high casualty incident – ballistic missile impacts in Arad and Dimona that left nearly 200 people wounded – I drank a cup of coffee, packed a bag, and headed south.
There, I spoke with Shilgit, the head of an after-school program for underprivileged youth. Standing outside her destroyed center, Shilgit said it was a miracle that no children were hurt and spoke about the community coming together in the hours since.
As a Times of Israel reporter, I’m committed to telling stories of resilience like Shilgit’s. But my colleagues and I can't do this alone. If you value work like this, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to keep real human reporting like this going.
