At the heart of the show is Midge Maisel, played with flair by Rachel Brosnahan. Midge’s character bears a strong resemblance to Joan Rivers, the trailblazing comedian known for her sharp wit and unapologetic humor. Both women shared a similar background: Jewish New Yorkers born in the early 1930s, who defied societal expectations with their bold comedy.

Rivers, like Midge, was known for her glamorous stage presence juxtaposed with a brash, fearless comedic style. Brosnahan highlights a key difference: “Joan’s comedy came from a place of feeling like she never belonged. Midge, on the other hand, knows she is beautiful and great at what she does.” This contrast highlights the personal empowerment Midge exhibits compared to Rivers’ struggle for acceptance.
