- [Lacey] You have a show where, it is become
sort of relevant in a way, that going into it while
you are filming it, Frankie you too,
you perhaps didn't know just how relevant
these shows would be.
Has that changed your approach to the conversations,
as you film season two, or as you produce season two?
- Well the best part about our show,
has been that it hasn't changed the conversation at all.
- [Lacey] At all
- [Rachel] It just has added to a conversation
that has been swelling.
And I think people are viewing the show,
through maybe a different lens,
but it actually has been created exactly
as it was intended to be - [Lacey] Mmm.
- I have wonderful parents.
I've had a very comfortable life, and though I knew
that love would be great, I had no idea it would
be anything that could justify,
what I paid for this dress.
- What I paid for that dress.
We're very happy.
Ccrowd softly chuckles)
- [Mrs. Maisel] And because, it's better than anything
I could've imagined, I thought I should get up here today,
and tell all of you that,
I
love
this man.
(crowd saying aww and softly clapping)
- And yes there is shrimp in the egg rolls.
(crowd gasping in horror)
(dish breaks)
- Miriam!
- Huuh!
- This theme and idea,
of a woman discovering a voice that she didn't know she had,
resonates in a new way now,
and that's, I think but nothing but encouraging,
in the midst of a lot of turmoil,
and also a lot of, hope.
I feel like despite a lot of sadness and trauma and
worldwide despair, I'm so encouraged by this moment
we are living in - [Women] Mmm, huh.
- this exact moment.
People are feeling a responsibility in a positive way to
- [Women] Mmm.
- Play an active role in their futures,
and these are all things that we talk about,
through Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, and through
the titular character Midge.
(upbeat, grrovy music)
- [Rachel] When I was really young and auditioning a lot
for, you know, like CW and ABC family, and
I grew up playing sports, I didn't know how to do
my own hair and make-up, really, and I you know,
I'm like natural, that people like that, you know.
(women laughing)
And that my real hair, my natural hair is like,
really, really curly, and I have a ton of it,
and I just didn't know how to do make-up.
And I had the same thing, they said,
I think you need to wear like a more formed fitting top.
The cast director traded shirts with me,
for a more form fitting top, and sent me out of the room
with her assistant to have her do my make-up
in the bathroom.
- Ahh! (women simultaneously agreeing)
- But that wasn't the only time that happened
in that office.
It was like everytime I went in there.
She was like, huh, (Rachel laughs) you sat down.
(women laughing)
- [Alison] My question is, and you were like a child,
- I mean,
- And she was an adult woman, - I was like 18,
- but her top was tight, on your child body?
- Yes. - Interesting.
- [Women] Wow!
- I feel like she was wearing shirts like were too,
- I mean I'm 18, I'm not sure I had,
- Well this is LA also.
(women talking simultaneously) (women laughing)
- Just coz she knew that you were coming in,
she was like give me that small top, so we can switch.
- Yeah, yes exactly!
- I have a more intriguing question,
what sports did yo up play? (women laughing)
- Well, ah, so I wrestled in high school.
(women cheers)
- I knew this was gonna be intriguing
(women laughing and talking simultaneously)
- I love it!
- Yeah, I grew up
- But like traditional wrestling,
where you wear a little - Yeah.
- Hat.
- Yeah, and if you have hair, a little cap under your hat,
- Yeah. - It wasn't the best look,
I've ever had.
(women laughing)
(upbeat, groovy music)
- [Lacey] What is your personal favorite show or performance
of the 2017-2018 season.
- Oh my god! - Whoa!
(women talking simultaneously)
- This is a lightning rod type of question!
- That's impossible!
- This is like, give me half an hour.
- [Rachel] I'm gonna mispronounce your name,
is it Yvonne Or
- Yvonne Orgy, I think
- Orgy in Insecure.
- [Tacee] I believe. [Woman] Love it.
- [Rachel] Is maybe my,
favorite character on television right now,
and I think she is so,
- Can we have a why? - so fantastic.
I just,
I love their relationship.
I love their friendship.
I love how the show focuses on it, and I feel like
it's a character I haven't seen much before where
he appears to be so together.
(Woman Agreeing)
- [Rachel] In every way, and yet she can't quite
get the piece of her life together that
she desires the most, - Yeah.
- [Rachel] She wants to be in a relationship, but she can't
quite figure it out.
(women agreeing simultaneously)
But on the surface, she maybe has her life,
not in a joking way, genuinely she has
an amazing job, she has great friends,
and seems like she should have the perfect life,
(women agreeing)
and I just have loved to watch it.
