"Four Minutes": Series Finale

Comments

It's been awesome following these reactions, I'm so glad you two decided to react to this show. That being said, I think you both may have missed a crucial point of the finale. This isn't a sad ending. She in a previous episode has said she wanted someone who made her laugh and that was Susie. The love story here has always been Midge and Susie. Women choosing to be ambitious is often unfairly portrayed as a "choosing to be lonely" moment but that's not true in this case. She got the life she wanted and most importantly, chose for herself. Women having that right to choose is still a very bizarre concept for most people to comprehend and they often see it as a "sad ending" moment because it's not what they envision women to have. Amy Sheridan truly nailed this concept and depicted it in a very realistic way. Most shows don't land their finales.. this one did! Excellent run!

I would like to applaud your thoughtful and insightful analysis of shows such as The West Wing and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. Your responses showcase intelligence and empathy, qualities that are highly valued and often lacking in our current society. One area of concern I would like to address is the potential for character judgment, particularly towards Rose, based on modern standards rather than considering the historical context in which they existed, especially in terms of societal norms regarding women. For instance, despite Rose's education, she was overlooked for a position on her family's board and excluded from decision-making processes regarding their relocation to New York. It was simply assumed that Abe's career was the priority. In today's society, there would ideally be a discussion about potential job opportunities for Abe in France. It is important to consider the limitations and expectations placed on women during that time period. Without Rose consistently showing love and support to her daughter in her formative years, Miriam may have lacked the courage and confidence necessary to pursue and achieve her dreams. While every mother desires their daughter's success, it can be challenging to admit when one's own aspirations were hindered by lack of support from family and society. Miriam recognized this dynamic, which is why she wholeheartedly supported her mother in pursuing her dreams later in life.

I understand that it's not "sad". That being said, yes her and Susie have made it to the top. It is sad to she her throughout the years and outliving everyone. It is sad to see these characters go and she is left alone and estranged from her children.

Hey I really appreciate you saying that! Thank you for your kindness. Someone had to stand up for Rose! Lol. I understand she feels like she was never prioritized and it's true that she wasn't. This was the toughest season for her character. She was basically the heel of the show. That might be a little dramatic. Obviously Gordon is way more of a heel. She was very well written and performed. Fantastic character
