As gears up for its final season, fans are buzzing with excitement and curiosity about the possibility of a spinoff. One of the most intriguing prospects is a show centered around Susie Myerson, portrayed by the talented Alex Borstein. With the show’s narrative taking a dramatic turn in Season 5, Episode 8, where Susie and Midge become estranged, the question of a Susie-centric spinoff has gained momentum.

In an interview with The Wrap, Alex Borstein, who has won three Emmys for her role as Susie, opened up about the potential for a spinoff. Borstein’s response was filled with enthusiasm and trust in the show’s creator, Amy Sherman-Palladino. "Whatever Amy Sherman-Palladino wants to do — and if I am invited to the party — I am there," Borstein said. Her dedication to the character and her respect for Sherman-Palladino’s storytelling craft shine through in her words. "I really trust her. She creates these universes that consistently expand, and I don’t know how she does it.

You cannot get bored because it’s constantly expanding and changing," Borstein added.

The tension between Susie and Midge is a significant plot development. The two characters, who started as best friends and collaborators, now find themselves at odds. This shift opens up fascinating narrative possibilities. A spinoff could delve into Susie’s life post-Midge, exploring her struggles, triumphs, and perhaps even new comedic endeavors.
