The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel gains a marvelous win at Golden Globes 2019
While The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel may have lost in the Best TV Comedy category, it took home one win thanks to Rachel Brosnahan at the Golden Globes 2019.
Amazon wasn’t as successful at the Golden Globes 2019 as it was at last year’s Emmy awards. Considering there are fewer categories at the Golden Globes, that isn’t overly surprising, but it can cause a few upsets. One of those for The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel fans was the fact the show didn’t win Best TV Comedy or Best Actress in a Supporting Role, but it did take home one win.
Rachel Brosnahan took home the Best Actress In a Leading Role – Comedy or Musical award. It is an outstanding achievement, as she was up against some heavy hitters, including Kristen Bell and Debra Messing. As marvelous as we know Mrs. Maisel is, there are some other excellent comedies out there.

Like many awards shows, there were some surprising wins. The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel losing Best TV Comedy was a minor surprise, but many accepted there were other big comedies in the category. However, most people likely thought it would lose to The Good Place or Barry. Instead, it lost to Netflix’s The Kominsky Method, something I admit I’d never heard of until the Golden Globes.
The Amazon comedy wasn’t the only one that missed out in categories. Julia Roberts and Stephen James were nominated for Homecoming but lost out to Sandra Oh and Richard Madden in their categories. It just wasn’t Amazon’s night, but the two wins were most definitely well deserved.
What can Amazon do to help? Well, I’m not sure there is anything for Amazon. This isn’t the fact that the shows were bad or they didn’t deserve to be nominated. Netflix and Britain are bringing out some bigger hitters. The Golden Globes sees some stiff competition.
Just being nominated is something to be proud of. There are plenty of TV shows and actors out there that get overlooked when it comes to nominations. At least The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel gained one marvelous win.
