(NASDAQ: AMZN)—Amazon today announced that in celebration of its
two Golden Globe wins, it will make the Prime Original The
Marvelous Mrs. Maisel available for free for everyone this weekend.

at 12:01am local time and concluding at 11:59pm local time Monday,

New Yorkers are true fans of the series, which takes place in
their hometown. Of the top 30 cities in the US, the place that
streamed the most hours per customer of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel
was New York City, followed by Portland and Seattle. More than half
of US Prime members who completed the series finished within three
days, and the most popular time to start the series was 9pm
ET—making it the perfect series to stream over the holiday weekend
ahead.
“Big kudos and congrats to Rachel for her first Golden Globe and
to Amy for an outstanding first season,” said Greg Hart, Vice
President of Prime Video. “We are excited for new viewers to join
in the celebration and stream the series for free this
weekend.”
Rachel Brosnahan (House of Cards) stars as Miriam “Midge”
Maisel, a 1958 New York City woman who has everything she’s ever
wanted—the perfect husband, two kids and an elegant Upper West Side
apartment perfect for hosting Yom Kippur dinner. 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 series was created by Amy Sherman-Palladino and executive
produced, written and directed by Sherman-Palladino and Daniel
Palladino. This past week, Sherman-Palladino was nominated for the
prestigious Directors Guild of America (DGA) Award.
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel also stars Golden Globe winner and
three-time Emmy winner Tony Shalhoub (Monk) as Midge’s father Abe
Weissman, Alex Borstein (Family Guy) as Susie Meyerson, Michael
Zegen (Boardwalk Empire) as Midge’s husband Joel Maisel and Marin
Hinkle (Two and a Half Men) as Midge’s mother, Rose Weissman.
The series is available in 4K Ultra HD and High Dynamic Range on
the all-new Fire TV as well as compatible smart TVs, set top boxes
and game consoles. It is also available in HDR10+, a new open
standard that leverages dynamic metadata to produce enhanced
contrast and colors, on compatible Samsung smart TVs. Prime members
can also download the series for offline viewing on iOS, Android
and Fire devices at no additional cost.
