In case anyone is interested in the floorplan:
Interesting floor plan! (At firstI thought it was just one apartment. But even one half of it is huge for NYC.
Yeah I should have specified. Thatâs for a floor in the building, and there are 2 apartments per floor. Or at least there were back in the day; most have since been carved up into smaller units.
The building went co-op in 1967. The insider price for a Maisel apartment at conversion was $30,000âor about $298,000 today. Now that would have been some investment. If that apartment went on the market today, it would be great n the $5-6M range.
My college-aged DC and I watched season one when it came out. DC just kept yelling things at the TV like âwho would do that?â and âYou call the policeâ I thought the show was terrible (bad rip off of The Outsiders), but I did learn what a rule follower DC is!
Fantastic show! While indulging in jet lag, I binged over the course of this weekend; worth every Rotten (Tomatoes!) point!
H and I finished Night Agent last night and really liked it. Glad to hear there will be a Season 2.
I look at pix of my mom from that time period. The clothes were super stylish. When I was a teen and platform shoes became popular (again it appears since they were new to me!) my mom showed me a pair from the 40âs that she still keptâblack velvet. They were gorgeous.
I still have a couple of her coats. And my dad had a trench coat that my son now ownsâthey donât make clothes close to that anymore. The styles truly were classic.
While weâre on the subject of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, the fifth and final season starts on April 14th with 3 episodes. Then one episode a week until the end of May.
And I will just start watching the end of May probably - hate the dosage effect, lol.
@skieurope I will also wait to watch until all episodes are released like @abasket!
Iâm too impatient for that
Watching Succession. This weekâs episode had some really excellent acting. Now that my work is slowing down a bit, looking forward to streaming some of the shows mentioned on this thread.
Spoiler alert. I donât think Iâve every seen one of these before:

ETA. Apparently it has been done before:
I just binged the first three episodes of Schmigadoon: Schmicago on Apple+ and thoroughly enjoyed it. Great spoofing of Chicago, Cabaret, Sweeney Todd, Hair, and more. Excellent dancing. It helps to really appreciate musicals.
I started Firefly Lane and am enjoying it.
Just got a message that I can get 6 months of Apple TV for free from t-Mobile. Ted Lasso, here I come.
I just started a series on Netflix called Beef. It was billed as a comedy drama. I didnât see much comedy. Itâs about Korean-Americans and starts with a road rage incident that goes off the rails. Iâm only 3 episodes in and I will continue.
Oh thereâs a lot of good shows on Apple tv!!
Canât get it off my mind!! Listened to the âofficialâ podcast and now onto the Vanity Fair podcast!!
I binge watched Black Bird on Apple tv+ last weekend. Iâve avoided it thinking it was going to be a violent prison movie. Ok, it had some of that but it was so much more. Great acting!!
A few weeks ago I watched Dear Edward also on Apple. That was really good. I was worried it would be sad & depressing but it actually wasnât.
